"Jane Wilson sighs and glances around the home she’ll soon be leaving.

There’s the tiny Christmas tree, still perched by the window. Over there are the toys her kids should have put away before going to bed. On the kitchen counter, bamboo shoots and dishes wait to be washed. She doesn’t want to move away from this jumbled place, but she knows she has to.

Because this is now the law: Anyone like Jane and Bob who lives in Mexican state-funded housing must show identification to their landlord and sign a paper that says they’ve come legally to the Mexico."

fake green card is worthless to extend his lease, since landlords and governments are verifying document numbers against federal databases.

How low and mean-spirited can America get? Enforcing laws, I just don't believe it. No other country is that evil. I bet.

One wee step at a time?

Fat chance.

Enforcing laws threatens ILLEGAL "cheap" labor. Need a new law.

Need comprehensive immigration reform: call 'em "guest workers." There. Fixed it.

(It ain't just ILLEGAL aliens. Though the 1996 immigration and welfare reform stopped SSI for over-65 parents and relatives brought here by legal immigrants every other citizen's benefit remained available. And SSI continues for elderly relatives on it prior to August 1996, I believe, thanks to Feinstein, et al. modifications to the "reform".)

What did the Colorado western slope do before the illegals?

>take away the incentives they had to break the law in the first place.<

What a novel idea!

Subsidized Housing?

And not just subsidized housing in the deepest, darkest depths of LA. They're in Telluride, a ski town resort that is mainly populated by the hyper rich.

Isn't that special? The rich folks have their slave quarters in paradise paid for by us.

And you know the answer, unlike Mr. We Need Illegals to Keep the Chairlifts Running.

American kids did it. Working class kids from LA, college kids from Wisconsin taking a 1 or 2 year break from school, people just being ski bums for a few years. Some left, some stayed and became permanent resort employees, others drift in and out. Never had a problem getting people that I ever saw.

“I don’t have a car. How am I going to move? I don’t know what I’m going to do.”

And you arrived in Arizona and Colorado exactly how?

He got here with just the clothes on his back and the good Lord willing, he'll leave the same way.
