Thanks!
Personally, I do not care where folks come from, so long as they conform to the American values such as Liberty.
So long as the Country sheds jobs, I do not see the need for more people!. We need to attract immigrants to fill holes in our work force, NOT depress Salaries and workplace conditions. We have our own homegrown slugs to carry in the cart.

My point is : Liberals always go to the bleeding heart. You will “feel good” granting amnesty (Name any other freebe given to the gimmiedat’s) to these poor souls while someone else pays the cost.
The Adults have to say NO. What is the cost? How many immigrants do we need? If one million per year is good, why not 50 million per year? Get a level on what these bleeding hearts feel is too much. Then, flip the amnesty question back to them!

I do not know how you stop economic migrants. When Eastern Bloc Countries were under the Communist thumb, a lucky few got to travel to Canada. You could find newly minted Doctors and Lawyers, on “vacation” picking worms for cash. Theses lottery winners were able to go back to Poland, Romania, etc, and kickstart their life with new cars or better apartments.
When I travel to second world Countries the complaint is the same-those “xxxx” sneak into our Country and take our jobs.
Folks VISITING America can do what they like, BUT THEY MUST GO HOME AFTER A FEW WEEKS, A MONTH TOPS. They certainly cannot stay, draw freebies and vote.

I do. Immigrants and minorities vote more than two to one Democrat. Each year, we import hundreds of thousands of future Dem voters. We have entered the era of tribal politics. Why do you think the Dems want more immigrants? Immigrants use the welfare system to a much greater extent than the native born. They are natural Dems.

I know it is politically correct to say you welcome all legal immigrants no matter where they come from, but the fact is that they are transforming this country with their culture and Third World values. Why should 87% of all legal immigrants be minorities, entitled to all the benefits that entails, e.g., affirmative action and minority business set asides? Immigrants account for 80% of all population growth. America will be lost thru the ballot box.

My point is that the liberals see immigration as a way to transform America. It has nothing to do with bleeding hearts, but rather, political power.

You stop them by enforcing our laws and taking in fewer legal immigrants. You make it very difficult for the lawbreakers to work making E-verify mandatory and cracking down on employers. You leverage state and local law enforcement to identify and deport illegals.

So what do you do to stop it? You certainly don't reward the lawbreakers with the "right" to stay and work here. You don't make their children born in America US citizens thru birthright citizenship. You don't have a kinship system of immigration rather than a merit-based one. I have lived over 25 years overseas in nine different countries and visited over 70 countries. There is no country that allows its borders to be crossed with impunity by foreigners, no matter how poor. Mexico jails and then deports illegal aliens save those transiting the country to enter the US.

FYI: Most of our our tourist visas allow up to 90 days. We have over 900,000 here on student visas. Each year we have over 50 million visitors.
