Boy are you blind. Germany has had a guestworker program for years and it is a nightmare. When Germany's economy was good (pre-reunification) they began their guestworker program which was utilized mainly by Turks who took jobs Germans did not want. Post-reunification, when their economy was in trouble, many guestworkers were told to go home because they now had millions of East Germans willing to take low-paying jobs. Guess what? The "guestworkers" would not leave! Then the German government began PAYING THEM TO LEAVE, and guess what? They took the money, left the country, then came back in illegally. Germany is a small country, roughly the size of Montana. They have strict border patrol and they can't even keep their "guestworkers" from returning illegally so how do you think we will be able to keep track of them?

My point is, the "guestworker" program is just another amnesty program which will be pushed through in an election year to buy votes for our corrupt politicians. It is a useless program and will only encourage more people to take advantage of us. Bush just lost my vote. Legend my A$$!

You said: "They have strict border patrol and they can't even keep their "guestworkers" from returning illegally so how do you think we will be able to keep track of them?"

Thank you for undermining your own argument and support mine.

The Bush plan deals with this reality.
