India says it is planning to deport an estimated 20 million Bangladeshi illegal immigrants. The Home Ministry in Delhi said the illegal immigrant issue had to be tackled with ''utmost urgency''.
If they can do it, there is absolutely NO EXCUSE why we can't do it.

More like racist undocumented migrant haters, to use the correct terminology.

I dunno...Russia has a flat tax but that (and the results) doesn't seem to have lit a fire under anybody in D.C.

Actually last year there were 21 House Members, including Tom Delay, that have signed onto support a bill that gets rid of the IRS.
That same bill two years ago only had 10 house members supporting it.

This would only really work in the north eastern states.

Quite right. It would be nearly impossible to differentiate between a Bengali and a Banlgadeshi. Ditto for Panjabis or Sindhees.

Maybe the best thing is for India to take over Bangladesh. Wouldn't be much use to India though -- B's economy is shot, it would be like the Federal republic of Germany taking on the GDR.

Amazing that they can do it and we can't. Hmm.

As has been said on this thread, the effectiveness of this policy will be seen in the near future.
What is significant is at least the statement of intent, and that officially India wants these people out.
Should be a morale booster for the troops on the border as they see that their govt is addressing the issue and supports their thankless work in the border areas.
