Maybe a better tack, and one that would send the left into hysterics, would be to offer the companies tax breaks on college students that they hire from the US. Or give the incentive to the students. Make a large portion of tution tax deductible upon receiving a degree in engineering and other tech fields.

I don't understand why this president, one who 'champions' education, is so quick to give in to businesses demands for a quick fix. As impressed as I am in his response to 9-11, I am equally disappointed in his handling of immigration. If he were a pitcher instead of a president, it's as if he has a 175mph fastball, but can't throw it within 10ft of the strikezone.

While he's giving tax breaks, maybe he could throw one in for the border patrol agents. $5 off your next tax bill for every illegal that they document sending to Argentina (Argentina, because then they couldn't 'boomerang' back across the border so easily).

I've always thought that's the fatal flaw in the Republican party.

Excellent ideas!
