150 million illegals already have crossed over, haven’t they?
Sorry kids we’re all full up, we’re $16 trillion in debt thanks in large part to handouts and we have an ongoing invasion from the South as well. Better get to work fixing your own problems in your own country and spare us the sob stories about entrenched power structures. No pain no gain.
No Vacancy.
I propose a trade with all English speaking countries: One immigrant family with a minimum 3 kids for every scumbag american languishing in our jails. The kids should be bright and the Nigerians better not be scam artists.
Are you sure it is still the land of dreams?
Or is it perhaps the generous welfare programs and free medical care that are attractive?
WELCOME TO THE LAND OF FREE STUFF. Bring in everyone, we’ll just tax the rich to get more free stuff.
Half of those 150 million probably want to come for the wrong reasons.
NO!
Time to close the gate, we have virtually no control over the disease laden illegals coming in now.
So the only practical offset is to reduce “Immigration” to zero.
We will still get millions per year, from all over the world, as all sorts of Visa’s will continue to be abused to “Overstay” permanently.
But we should at least save the expense of paying to bring them here, and when they are detected we have a possibility of deporting them.
Not an ideal answer, but there appears to be no way we can implement the ideal answer.
Even suggesting portions of what really has to be done to control illegal entry turns supposedly conservative folk into liberals wanting exceptions.
For example:
Asset forfeiture. Illegal = ALL assets seized, deportation in a paper suit.
No money, no cars, no home titles, no SS payments.
Children of illegals. Does not matter how long they have been here, or born here, DEPORT with the parents.
Until we stop creating “Anchor Babies” or making exceptions for those who have gotten away with invasion for too long, they will NOT stop coming.
Reentry. Is SUPPOSED to be a felony, but courts let invaders slide time and time again.
They MAY impose some penalty once the invader has killed some one, or been caught at some other major violation.
Reentry has to be CONSISTENTLY punished as a FELONY every time in order to be a deterrent!
Caught once = Deportation and permanent ban, unable to ever enter the U.S. again for ANY reason. NO exceptions.
Prosecute illegal’s voting to the full extent of the law!
Close all “Matricula Consular” (SP?) offices and make it clear that any documents they have issued are considered fake.
Stole ID, SS#, etc., prosecute as felony and deport.
Anything less is selective enforcement and an open invitation to MORE invasion.
Not a complete list, only a start.
I would have thought the figure was a whole bunch more than that.
This just in from The Times of Rome, published in the year 475....
“Visigoths, Vandals Seek Higher Living Standards, Want Citizenship”
Would I be racist if I said I’d take the Japanese, Vietnamese and Brits? And I’d take the Nigerians and Kenyans if they were Christians. But only if we can boot out the illegals already living here.
One problem with many of these people is that they want freedom for themselves but want to elslave the people aroud them, be it their wives, children, and/or employees.
The minute they land, they will immediately try to turn the USA into the turdholes they just fled.
1. A country can chose to have generous social programs, or open immigration. It can't chose to have both.
2. In the absence of borders, immigration (and emigration) will continue until the quality of life in “rich” countries has been reduced to near equality with the poorest.
This time it really is dreams. Nothing more.
What is truly sad is in the event of a civil war to preserve the constitution of this nation the first generation immigrants will out number those born here and will fight harder.
Maybe five percent will stand up to preserve the constitution and three of that five will be first generation.
Tell em the free goodies are no longer available, then re-take the survey. The results will be predictable.
Land of dreams has nothing to do with it.
It’s all about flop house USA, and the tax paid handouts.
I know a native of India who would love to come to America. In fact, he was pretty much Shanghaied by an unscrupulous employment agent, and is stranded in Israel. If anyone knows of a possible sponsor for an experienced caretaker for the elderly and disabled with a mathematics degree, law abiding and soft spoken, along with his wife, please contact me. He’s offered me a finder’s fee that I’d be willing to split.
