A: Denying wrongdoers the fruits of their criminality is eminently "fair".

As if the crime of sneaking across the border or allowing a visa to expire suddenly makes EVERY SINGLE act on American soil "a crime".....

This is really getting pathetic!

I think people's bitterness on the issue of illegal immigrants is truly causing all logic to fall into a black hole of hate.

If people worked here for 20 years, GIVE THEM freakin Social Security....they worked and contributed to society just like anyone else, and perhaps more so than many natural born Americans.

In any case they'll just end up on welfare, otherwise. So what?

I disagree. Were it not for their illegal presence they would not have been working in this country.

Denying them social security is a fitting penalty -- let their ill-gotten monies go to Americans who worked lawfully.
