So, how long have you been a U.S. citizen?

The short answer is that the invisible hand of the market will do it. If employers are fined relentlessly for employing illegals, they will go home. It was not physically impossible for the market to move them here, and it will not be physically impossible for the market to move them back to their country of origin.

Stop using this argument. We don't HAVE to deport them. We just have to eliminate the economic incentives that keep them here.

This is not necessarily my solution, but I can tell you that if you cut off the benefits, many illegals will return to their homeland of their own accord. The same way they came here.

My problem is I am put off by politicians who choose an alternate path because they believe we are unable to deport illegals. We might as well legalize drugs because we have been unable to stop their importation as well.

If this country chose to deport 12 million or 20 million illegals, it could to it. It would not be easy, but it could be done. What this country should not do is be forced into an alternative solution because of the perception that deportation is not possible. The country should choose an alternate course only if it is deemed better on its own merit.

And no one has explained to me why remaining here should in any way be linked to citizenship. If these folks are needed by business or agriculture, then you issue a temporary visa for as long as they are needed. To see these politicians offer citizenship under these conditions makes me sick.

Dwight Eisenhower did it to 1 million illegals with ships and planes.
