I do not think the country was fooled even once - especially given the 40 million unborn babies aborted, we NEED good people - that need will get even more obvious once the Baby Boomers start retiring in droves.

The '86 amnesty came with a promise of enforcement at the border, and that enforcement never materialized. There's no other way to describe it than that the people were hoodwinked.

we NEED good people

That we have a lack of good people is debatable. What's not debatable is that leaving the border unsecured so that they could come in illegally is a very wrong remedy. That brings in the bad along with the good.

What's also not debatable is that the temptation of amnesty brings in more illegals and that makes it all the harder to secure the border.

Good people don't sneak across the border; criminals do.
