here's an idea: legalize them. turn them into enfranchised, tax-paying citizens instead of spreading this scare-mongering that borders on racism.>>>>>>>>

Duh.......We've ALREADY done this.....The blanket amnesty (REWARD) in 1986, & SEVEN 'new deadlines' since on the 'mini amnesties' have only resulted in the 10 MILLION plus who are here now waiting for the next amnesty (REWARD) for breaking our laws.

I am really against illegal Immigration, however, I am a proponent of legal Immigration.
Look at some facts. In the last 20 years we, the US, have grown in population by 35%. We now have close to 300 million people. Yet our Unemployment numbers have not really changed during that time. It simply means that Jobs continue to be created (although different kind of jobs)and that those immigrants also contribute to our infrastructure, economy, etc.
We do need increases in population, unless we want to become like the Europeans, who have become too lazy to breed and therefore are destroying their socio-economic future. They have to deal with Depopulation, which is infinately more dangerous than a growing population with social problems beyond belief.
Illegal immigration helps no one. The undocumented workers can't open a bank account, can't pay into Social security, even if they wanted to, don't pay income taxes, etc. They lack the one thing required to assimilate: A Social Security number, which only legal immigration allows.

I ain't talking about amnesty. I'm talking about unconditional, free immigration for all able-bodied persons without a criminal record. everyone has a right to the American Dream.
