Then it occurred to me, why not seal them shut for 6 months and see what happens to prices and jobs. Then it is no longer a hypothetical situation, we will know the results.

Not  a bad idea since at this point we have more than enough illegal aliens to do the "jobs Americans refuse to do"

Another thing, after reading that old Bush quote from your comments...I would like to see Bush pressed to identify specifically just what those "jobs" are that "Americans won't/don't want to do."

Bush needs to be held accountable for these specifics and this issue, and his subtle but obvious suggestions to people south of our border who have been encouraged by Bush and complied during Bush's Presidency in ever increasing numbers of illegal aliens.

It's not as if Bush has taken any steps to confront the issue of illegal aliens but has, rather, worked toward fascilitating the problem...if he's ever been stern with Vicente Fox, for instance, no one would ever know it and it just seems that Mexico and South America perceive Bush (and America while Bush is in office) as an easy target, easy to victimize, simple to manipulate, easy to violate...

All these things fuel the illegal alien problem and Bush's weird comments about the Minutemen and the "jobs (etc.)" seems to be more the words of a Brazilian or Mexican than an American.

So, we need to start pressing President Bush for specifics on these statements he's made, as him to list examples of specific "jobs" "Americans won't do" and such, and how they're "done" instead AND FOR WHOM by illegal aliens.

And why there aren't any penalties for illegal activity in regards these issues.

The only thing I've heard him say about it was that "the border's a big area and difficult to enforce" -- it was like hearing someone say, "the dog ate my homework."
