It's not an absurd question, just a leading question to which I already knew your answer.
What you're basically saying is, you'd be pissed if Congress made them legal tomorrow ... which says that you're really concerned about something other than the legality of the workers in question.
So what's your real complaint?
Perhaps that they have no money and can't support themselves?
I believe that I have stated my views on this subject adequately. Put youself in our situation. Maybe then you wouldn't be so callous.
What right does Congress have, or for that matter the Executive Branch, to override our immigration laws? You know very well that the proposed "reform" of immigration law specifically FAVORS illegal Latino immigrants. So, the differentiation as to nationality starts with the politicians.
Your move...
