[ but what is the solution to the 11 million illegals in the country. How are we going to deport all those people? ]
Make it hard to live in the U.S. being illegal and they will deport themselves.. You need a job and a place to stay/hide.. Easy to do.. Also; make it, cost you, to hide the illegals.. Quite simple really.. Pretty soon the illegals will find a way to get back into Mexico all by themselves, like they got here...
Could be a lot of non latin americans will go to Mexico too.. not all illegals are from South and Central America.. Make it COST the employers, the property managers, and real estate agents they make it possible to LIVE here.. and the illegals will slink back across the border.. Make it cost also the reletives (here now and legal) that hide them.. BINGO problem solved....
This plan will NOT be executed.. because Bush WANTS multi million new democrats to enliven the democrat party.. The democrats have been aborting their next generation for decades.. WHY is that?.. WHy indeed..
"Make it hard to live in the U.S. being illegal and they will deport themselves."
I would agree that if this concept was actually executed that it could very well cause illegals to deport themselves (at least the ones that don't have spouses that are citizens). However, our current immigration law has punishment for employers that hire illegals. Prosecution is difficult since workers frequently have fraudulent papers or prosecutors don't think the crime is important enough to prosecute. Further, the INS policy does not encourage tracking down illegals. There is a kind of culture of forbearance out there, with Churches acting as sanctuaries!
I think the idea of requiring a tamper proof ID card would help. To make illegals leave would require the threat of incarceration (then the legal system overflows). In theory it could happen, but it would take huge changes affecting our legal system, law enforcement and punishing employers.
Next question:
Why would Bush want to enliven the RAT party? Or were you just being sarcastic?
