I'm hardly anything even remotely approaching a conservative, but rather a libertarian, which permits me to observe and sometimes despair of the insanity of both multi-billion dollar political machines. I care about America and the Freedom of her people, not any highly-agendized, insane BS. Nice try though.
Glenn Quagmire said:"For one, we very much need in any immigration bill we need protection for people who are in this country and who have not become citizens, for example, that they are protected and legitimized and given permanent residency here. And we want to see some things of that kind added to the immigration bill."
"I believe in the idea of amnesty for those who have put down roots and who have lived here even though sometime back they may have entered illegally."
You have no clue who I quoted, do you?southwind said:Would take it you believe the idea of amnesty for those who have committed other crimes, even though those crimes might have happened in the past and they were never caught!
"Amnesty for Everybody", it's only fair..........right?
Surely you are not implying that this is only a recent problem. Neither party is interested in fixing the 'problem'.cltrat said:yadadayadayda whats going to happen in 5 years when there is 5 million more of them?
I would think all you big time union supporters would be appalled by it, all they will be taking up are middle class and low level jobs for the most part.
oh that's right, it's your beloved messiah doing it so all is good.
Considering how much illegal labor has driven down wages I am willing to chance it.Ms Tree said:When costs for goods and services go up after the 'problem' is fixed the people won't like it either.
You might be wrong on that one. Our GDP has steadily fallen while Mexico's is on the rise. The US has had many factories migrate where it is cheap to do business. Ironically, most illegals work in the agriculture industry. In other words, your food supply where prices are rising regardless of dropping oil prices.Considering how much illegal labor has driven down wages I am willing to chance it.
Price is irrelevant when you have no income to buy goods and services because some temp agency is supplying local businesses cheap illegal labor.
Do you know how many billions of dollars are sent out of this country every year to family members in other countries? I am not going to give you the number because I want you to look it up.signals said:You might be wrong on that one. Our GDP has steadily fallen while Mexico's is on the rise.

Price is very relevant for those of us who aren't Kennedys or Rockefellers.
An "anchor baby" is a citizen, not an illegal immigrant.Add the $2600 to $8,802 dollar cost (with no complications) of delivering an "anchor baby".
signals said:Perhaps being a LEGAL immigrant, I can clarify a few 'flaws' why you can't stop illegal immigration no matter what kind of fortress you build. You do know about this, right?

A good chunk of the US territory belonged to Mexico. Now just because you took it by force, doesn't mean that Mexican don't have 'squatter' rights. You might have a sense of entitlement, but you actually don't. It's almost been 200 years and the US still can't(or chooses not to) secure its borders. This problem has existed all this time, so spare me the hypothetical outcomes.
My theory-yes it is far-fetched-is that by giving amnesty you can better control and document the illegals. This will also help stop other ethnic illegals that might pose a danger from crossing our border.
