You're saying that 98% of the people who jump the border are people who wouldn't be accepted under a guest-worker program? What makes you say that only such a small percentage would enter through the legal procedure?

Now, that really is getting nit-picky. You know as well as I do that we don't know how many of the illegals would be acceptable, nor do we know how many would apply for a legal program.
My support is for a program that would admit only the worker, and not the dependents. That qualification would make many who could be admitted legally take the illegal route, as long as they could still get a job anyway.

Anyway, my point is that the only way to stop illegal migration is to stop rewarding the people who do it.
