Well, what do we want? We want some way to verify the citizenship of workers and the recipients of public monies.
How do we plan on accomplishing that? Should each STATE have a different verification process, so that the Feds don’t make us carry a card or “papers”?
What is it YOU think would be the best way to accomplish the goal of “No Illegals Allowed”?
First things first.
We CAN secure the borders.
Doing what AZ is doing, i.e. checking the status of people detained for relevant reasons. You know, the same reasons I have to provide ID for. Traffic stops, crimes, jobs, DL etc. A national ID is not needed for that. We just need to simply do it.
Require that employers verify legal status of new hirees. Which BTW, is done most of the time by law abiding employers.
If illegals have a lot more difficulty coming in, if they know they will get deported if caught doing anything illegal, including traffic violations, if they know they can’t get jobs. Well, there goes the illegal problem. A national ID isn’t needed to accomplish any of this.
Like most of the crap laws and regulations coming from the Dems (and Nanny Staters in DC), the purpose is to monitor and control the *legal and law abiding citizens*, not the criminals or illegals. Gun control being the perfect example.
