I live in AZ (where we are over-run with illegals) and support guest worker visa’s. Employeres have to jump through a bunch of hopps to get permission...they have to prove a “need” (which is hard to do). And then, the “guest worker” is finger-printed, has a backgound check run and given a physical before being allowed into the country for a specific limited time. If he or his employer volate the agreement...there are material fines on the employer and all legal methods of US entry are closed on the guest worker.
It’s a mini-version of a green card...a system that works well...so I’m not sure why even you ...(with your vitriolic hatred of Mccain) would object.
That’s one of the problems with hatred...it’s gets in the way of common sense.
>>I live in AZ (where we are over-run with illegals)<<
But you are “happy in AZ” anyway.
>>and support guest worker visa’s.<<
So do I, but not an unlimited number of visas and even more guest worker programs than we have now.
>>And then, the “guest worker” is finger-printed, has a backgound check run and given a physical before being allowed into the country for a specific limited time.<<
“Background checks?” based on “reliable” Mexican (or similar) records?
>>If he or his employer volate the agreement...there are material fines on the employer <<
McCain did not vote for an amendment this year that would have funded and otherwise mandated a system that would track when a visa holder leaves the country. So our government, which can’t find its a** with both hands, is suddenly going to start cracking down on expired visas?
>>and all legal methods of US entry are closed on the guest worker.<<
Once they enter, why would they care whether their visa had expired?
>>It’s a mini-version of a green card...a system that works well...<<
Apparently it works well for you.

Exactly how many work visas is enough? No matter how high the numbers, your friends (I don’t know you, so I don’t know if there is some number of visas that you personally would be satisfied with) would always ask for more. How many guest worker programs do we need?

Some of the DAILY work of USIS according to their own document:
* Conduct 135,000 national security background checks
* process 30,000 applications for immigrant benefits
* Issue 7,000 permanent resident cards (green cards -PER DAY)(This is what McCain wants to increase....5 days per week x 7,000 x 52 weeks= 1,820,000 PER YEAR)
* Welcome 2100 new citizens.
* Welcome 3500 new permanent residents.(more of what McCain would increase....3500x5x52weeks=910,00 PER YEAR)
Does this look like we are not allowing enough “Legal” entries?
