Yes, I caught that yesterday.
Ivins, Ivins, Ivins.
Gets a few good shots/quips in, but is still wrong mostly wrong as she always is.
Wrong on the fence. (Having a fence works better than having nothing). Right on employer sanctions (illegal immigration is driven by hiring of illegal immigrant). Wrong on the way to improve things.
Mostly wrong on the social services angle. She fails to admit that Govt services and handouts are going to illegal immigrants, and Govt agencies know it and fail to check ...
"Racists seem obsessed by the idea that illegal workers -- the hardest-working, poorest people in America -- are somehow getting away with something, sneaking goodies that should be for Americans. You can always avoid this problem by having no social services. This is the refreshing Texas model, and it works a treat."
Here is a statistic for ya: One quarter of the children in a our major metro school district are from illegal immigrant families. There is a reason why thousands of schoolkids in LA marched. This is a consequence of a bad USSC decision and bad public policy.
Go ahead and ask the question of your school district, or LA school district.
The fact is that Texas is spending millions, nay, billions, on services for illegals. They are overloading the local hospital districts and schools, and make a sizeable part of the prison population.
Amnesty and legalization wont make any of that better, perhaps make it worse, because they will then have 'rights' to more services.
