Have you ever been in a grocery store on the Outer Banks of North Carolina during the summer? All the checkers, baggers and stockers are young adults from Eastern Europe on temporary work visas. The grocery stores have figured out a legal way to get the low-skilled, low-wage workers they need, and the young people from Eastern Europe get to come here and have the time of their lives. A win-win. If the grocers can do it, so can the farmers, roofers, landscapers, etc. Such legal programs exist, and can be expanded if needed.
Amnesty for illegals only promotes and encourages more illegality, undermining the rule of law which is the basis of the American social compact. Leaving the southern border wide open, hoping the right people sneak across and the wrong people don't, is absurd and dangerous in a post-911 world. The American people deserve better from their government.
Well duh. It's going to be easy to get affluent European college kids to work at beach resorts, where the social life will be hopping.
Getting them to pick apples or tomatoes in the country miles away from any nightlife is a whole other matter.
