I say this half seriously.
It's the libs that claim the Constitution is a "living" document and interpretation should be adjusted to fit contemporary mores. Well, using their logic, one could say that the 14th amendment shouldn't apply here because the writers intended for it to apply to *legal* residents only. Not 12 million illegal invaders.

Realistically, it ain't gonna get fixed. Our only hope is to keep them out of the country before the babies are born. If we stopped providing free medical services, including birthing services, it seems to me that would make them think twice about coming here. Sounds cruel, but this "invasion" will destroy this country as sure as if it were an invasion resulting from armed hostilities.

Secure our borders and remove all of the incentives they have for coming here. If they can't get jobs and medical care, how long before they quit coming??? In other words, if they will be worse off here, they will stay away.

You have some good points. We really don't need a massive amount of laws or border patrol to control this situation. If we do exactly as you say, they will self-deport. 1 - heavy punitive employer penalties for hiring illegals and a mandatory check on legal status on every worker 2- remove all social services that taxpayers are funding. The reasons for them to be here will be eliminated, so they'll leave.

Why does such a simple course of action like you advocate seemingly escape the legions of politicians, talking heads, etc. when discussing this issue? The welfare bennies combined with fake ID industry has cost taxpayers untold amounts of $ in addition to bankrupting hospitals, straining school budgets, etc. Add to it all the numbers of companies that are evading taxes by hiring illegals and the picture gets even bleaker.......and they all know they can pay illegals substandard $ because the fedgov and local gov's have made it possible for the living expenses of their new amigos to be paid for by taxpayers..........whatta deal!
