Then fix the legal immigration process.
I applaud the illegals for defying sluggish and incompetent bureaucracy and taking things in their own hands.
Those go-getters also go and get illegal documents - a felony. Many avoid paying taxes at all. They crowd into homes and lower property values. Gang membership is rife.
My first wife was a legal immigrant. They managed to come over just fine under the existing system.
Illegals have no way to fix the legal immigration process, and it does not seem to be a priority in Congress or anywhere else.
The difference between illegals coming here and someone breaking into my house is that I’m harmed by people breaking into my house.
There is plenty of economic activity in this country that could not exist without the contributions of illegals. I believe that overall the nation benefits from this.
If our social services are strained by the presence of illegals, then we should change the way our social services are run and what benefits are provided.
I would like to see hospitals that can treat people cost-effectively, schools that can actually educate people comptently at reasonable costs, and so on.
It’s funny that people who criticse our welfare and educational systems are the first to defend them when illegals come up.
What’s with that?
