At least you accept reality.
Jail and fines for people who employ illegals (that's the current law, it's just not enforced);
Jail and fines for people who use false ID to get jobs. When they are caught, hold them, then boot them out. Not to border towns, but interior towns. Let them know that a second offense, if they try to come back, will result in serious jail time.
State initiatives to stop schooling, medical care and welfare benefits to illegal aliens. Let the ACLU sue; the Constitution does not require us to give benefits to illegals. Let's see if the Supreme Court wants to revisit this issue, now that Sandy is gone. By the time it gets there, we will be rid of one of the old geezers, and it will be a cinch.
Federal laws along the same lines, cutting off federal benefits for illegals. A law denying automatic citizenship to the children of illegal aliens--that is not required by the Constitution because they are not "subject to the jurisdiction of the United States."
Every time an illegal is stopped for a traffic ticket, they are sent to detention and then deported.
Make it illegal to give them drivers licenses and bank accounts. If they are here illegally, they should not be allowed to have those things. Without them, they can't rent houses, buy things and live a normal life.
Pretty soon, the number of illegals here will drop substantially--from 12 million to a few hundred thousand stragglers, the ones who live the "hidden lives". Those are the ones we had 25 years ago, before Simpson-Mazzoli, the ones who came here to work for a few months, then went back home, unless they were caught by "la migra" first.
No need for mass deportations, although I see nothing wrong with it myself. Eisenhower did it to hundreds of thousands, and the rest saw what he was doing and went home on their own. I think Eisenhower did the right thing. We'd have to come up with a new name for it, though, in this PC era.
