“I’m going to have to be practical. We’re not going to deport or jail 12-14 million people.”
I am sick of this false argument. There is no need to deport 12-14 million. It is necessary to make the first ones STICK. The rest will deport themselves.
But then, of course, the elite who rule us have no concept of how to deal with real world problems. Like a balanced budget. Like how to meet our emergy needs. Like how to tackle the million and one problems that normal people would be able to solve in a month!
The scumbag elite who now rule this country are only interested in schemes to plunder the treasury to feed their insatiable greed.
Specially if it is made clear that the ones who deport themselves have the option of returning legally, if they choose. The ones who must be unwillingly deported permanently forfeit that option.
Criminals, goes without saying, are jailed appropriately, deported and permanently barred.
It's not rocket science. But it does require character, commitment, and the ability to see the clear distinction between "the right thing" and the "easier thing!"
