The social welfare programs are a major incentive for Hispanics. Stop that and you reduce the reasons for staying. Although there are thousands of Asians and others who have over stayed their visas that do not use the welfare system. They work for cash at low rates.
I live in Los Angeles. One block away from where I live was the final staging area for the big illegal rally(300,000 people) demanding their rights. Unless you could have seen this in person you have no idea how this was about political power.
When a government creates harsh laws that are not commensurate to the crimes it breeds contempt. That is why a just law builds support. Some of the ideas I have seen presented here are beyond the pale.

Again. Strict border security, tough employer sanctions and a halt to welfare handouts to illegals is not what I call provisions of a harsh law. The Dec2005 enforcement first bill passed in the House, HR4437, was a good bill. The Senate version S.2611, the liberal McCain-Kennedy, was a bad bill. It was an amnesty bill. We'd be better off implimenting mass deportation of illegals, then granting a blanket amnesty to illegals.
We have laws and we enforce those laws so we don't have anarchy and chaos in our American society.
“demanding their rights”
You mean demanding rights which are NOT theirs to demand....

The illegal aliens have contempt for our laws, and who cares? The laws are written for American citizens and illegal aliens break them willy nilly, because they have no respect for our country or our laws. Their hate for us has nothing to do with the supposed harseness of our laws, but a inbred desire to have their lazy selves supported by American citizens while they laugh about the situation and demand even more...
