So MI, is saying the way to stop illegal immigration is to contract the economy(i.e put it into recession), isn't that throwing the baby out with the bath water.

Why not import the entire nations of Guatemala and Honduras here? This would expand our economy in the sense that some economic figures would be instantly larger. This would add the people (12 million) and GDP of these two cesspits to our own GDP. This would be a smart move in your eyes

Now where have I said that, I haven't. I'm just not for MI's idea of contracting(i.e a recession) the US economy to solve the illegal immigrant problem.

I'm for a guest worker program which brings some sanity to an immigration problem and which doen't throw a wrench into the modern American economy.
