I have no problem with a legal guest worker program provided (a) they are not entitled to welfare and other government handouts, (b) they cannot bring kids with them to burden the public school system, (c) they cannot marry a U.S. citizen without a rigorous background check (at their expense) to ensure that the marriage is not a fraud, (d) any children born in the U.S. are not entitled to automatic U.S. citizenship, (e) a guest worker cannot bring either friends or family to the U.S., (f) there is a 25-year moratorium on non-English speaking immigrants while assimilation occurs, (g) there is an effective deportation system in place, and (h) immigration is based solely on what the immigrant can bring to the U.S. in terms of education, skills, and assets. As for the guest worker program, I'd require Mexico to abandon Spanish as its official language and make English a mandatory second language in its school system. I'd also require Mexico to abandon its no-extradition policy that it uses with glee to harbor fugitives from U.S. justice.

I'm not sure about your specific proposals, but I too would like to see Mexico make some concessions to us.

I agree with your conditions.. but something to also consider.. the guest worker proposal does not just apply to Mexicans.. any job is up for grabs. This is a way for large firms to circumvent the H-1 visa program.. no longer will the IT industry have to worry about outsourcing.. they will be brought to the US under this plan to replace American workers.

I agree with all of your conditions especially the one above.

Mexican do not respect American Law!

I switch a few words, like America in place of Mexico from their paragraph below.

* Understand that America is a foreign country with a unique set of immigration laws that must be adhered to in order to gain access to any recognizable rights in the country.

A very important paragraph on the web site below.

* Understand that Mexico is a foreign country with a unique set of laws that must be adhered to in order to acquire recognizable rights in real property.
