There was a bill just passed by the U.S were immigrants can't be in this country and anyone who hires an illegal or helps one will go to jell and fined. Now they are trying to make it a law, but there is a debate going on in the senate, they are debating over different propositions regarding if they should give illegals an amnesty,meaning they will become legal if they have been here for 5 to ten years, another one is the permit to work for six months, where after a period of a few years they will possibly be able to get there legalization,but with this permit they also have to leave after the time given and then get another permit to come back,(it's really unsure)and others I'm not aware of,  It's really ridiculous now that illegals have been here so long and have adapted to the customs of the U.S and furthermore there are millions of undocumented families and persons who have really struggled to get here to work hard and have a better life, people have lost there lives's trying to cross the border, and all they wanted was to come here to work and provide for there family, just like any other American. They just want an opportunity to make an honest living, and not live in there possibly corrupt countries where their own government fails them constantly and gives them no hope for progress.  Well this is my point of view, not to offend anyone or anything, everyone has the right to view this issue as they choose to, this is how I choose to do so and I hope it helps you at least to know one part of the issue.

The new immigration law is as close to facism as I've ever seen in this country (next to the Patriot Act).  There are blatant civil rights issues at stake here.  For instance, the new immigration bill would criminalize any act giving assistance to illegal foreigners - making churches, charity organizations, and other worthwhile enterprises felons!  If you are a legal worker, and then lose your status somehow (say, through an administrative mix up or some such incident) you would be charged with a felony as well.  It needs to be changed, at the very least.  However, throwing the immigrants out is NOT the answer.  Making them registered, tax paying legal residents is the answer.  This would bring in revenue for the government (which it desperately needs).  It would cost billions of dollars to find them, process them, and deport them.  We are talking about 12 million people here!  People need to put their racist attitudes aside and focus on a real solution to the problem.  And by the way, we are all descendants of immigrants in this country.  Its a good thing that our great-grandparents, or however far back you would like to trace your lineage, weren't tossed out of this country like so many of their descendants wish upon the illegals in this country today.  Remember your roots, and the fact that NONE of us would be here if not for immigration to this country.

Hey, you got me thinking ... this is a potential solution to the illegal alien problem, and a money generating operation to boot.\n\nIt's brilliant! Who's with me?

I don't care why they're here either.  I think they should be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law for invasion.  I also think that companies that hire them should be fined 100,000 dollars or more per infraction if they hire illegals.

I like it.  Needs to apply to illegal Mexicans too.\nIt is way cheaper than it is now.

The half of this "can of worms" has not been revealed.  Not only do illegals grab many benefits but they also apply for Medicaid and Medicare!  Many work under false names/social security numbers and the REAL citizens get income tax notices for back taxes! One lady had taken care of her children since 2000 and IRS wanted over $15,000 for back taxes on money she had not seen nor earned in three states! Recently 20 illegals were captured and some nitwit at Immigration told police to "Release them!"  Police should have ignored such a STUPID reply as a garbled transmission...faulty fax...faulty brain in faxer,etc. Immigration Service is a haven for nitwits, loafers, and incompetents seeking an easy paycheck for sloth.  Thousands of businesses could be fined for knowingly hiring illegals and fine money could be applied to "Dropping them off in Chiapas".  Instead 3 or 4 got fines, the apprehanders need to be the survivors of a "mass firing".  Whoever is supposed to be watching INS goof off should likewise be tossed into a van without seats a-la Billy Dale Travel Office style...and taken to the gate, told to "So Sue us!"  Hillary Clinton style!

hmmm.....don't see many of the regulars answering this question/statement do you.\n\nanother aspect of this immigration topic we have yet to pick the scab off.\n\nI love it.\n\nOh but I have to add....they are all going to post quickly with "illegal".....though that had nothing to do with the question.....that is going to be your basic answer.\n\nLMAO\n\ngood post!

I agree 100%.  Why did we make the immigration laws?  The term illegal by definition says they are doing something very wrong.  How many SKILLED workers could be here if there were not 12 million criminals here who stole the American dream from them?  They say they are not criminals?  Tell that to the skilled foriegners living in worse places than America who will never get to raise a family here because they are taking their place in the American dream.  Mabey they can hold a rally aimed at asking all the illegal immigrants to give THEM a chance at the American dream...  Do you think they would give the sympathy that they are asking for themselves?  How many of them would go back to where they came from and try to immigrate legally to give the others a fair chance?

I tend to agree.  This crap is pissing people off...and it's squandering any good will many of us may have had in regard to the plight of illegals.

You're absolutely right!  And I can quote the exact law that illegal aliens are breaking -- it's Title 8 Section 1325 of the US Code and its a Federal CRIME punishable by deportation.  I can't stand all of the "we are not criminals" nonsense.  They just need to look up Title 8 Section 1325 and see what criminals they are.

The congress is planning to try to put something together really quickly.  You need to contact your congressman by phone, mail or e-mail asap and let them know how you feel about it.  I personally am against any such action. The word "illegal" seems to have been forgotten in this whole immigration issue.  I welcome anyone who comes here legally, but not sneaking through borders, etc.\n\nWrite your congressman.

I had to read this about 6 times....but I got it.  \n\nThe key word is "illegal".\n\nI tried to make a valid argument to disagree......but I couldn't...you covered all your bases.  \n\nYou make your point....in a very ugly, condescending and ridiculous way...but you make it.  I wish I could do that.

Our Senators said F.U. the American people.  I so agree with Godzilla.  Also think about this, how many more illegal women are thinking of getting knocked up while here as a guest worker.  They are supposed to go home after two years,  how are we going to make them go home if they have a bunch of American kids? We need to revoke that privilege if we are to curtail further illegal immigration. If an illegal alien has a child here, that child should be the nationality of the mother's home country.   They may start to think twice about coming here if we do that in conjunction with tighter security at the border, and making it a felony for an employer to knowingly hire illegals. We can't just have more border patrol agents because guess what, the word has already gone to Mexico and even more are going to come storm our border to nullify to new additions to the B.P.  What do we do now?

I agree!  All businesses that hire illegals should be shut down then we can just patronize the ones who are hiring legal US citizens!  I think if you are illegal you should get no free med, no free education, no free food, no free ride PERIOD!

Thank the pro-hispanic lobby on this one, what it largely seems to amount to is a 'shotgun wedding' between the US and Mexico, and american taxpayers are supposed to buy off on all this garbage and not bat an eye. Since the reverse effect is happening, well it kind of shows that the GOP's head and hind-quarters aren't very well connected anymore, or one has lapped the other, something like that...what this also brings to light, though, is all these other 'programs' that give money away all over the place, Matthew Lesko's dream-come-true, and the taxpayer's worst nightmare, wealth redistribution in the worst possible sense. I think if we're going to help Mexico, it needs to be a lot more metered, and done AFTER the border's nailed shut, so as to minimize the negative impact on american communities. I think when the House finally gets around to consulting the voters on this one, there's going to be a general consensus going back to washington that basically says 'fix the border, and forget the rest of it'. It's a nice idea to try and help others, but if that 'help' is just going to get abused, there's not much point to it. Necessity's the mother of invention, and a lot of the people that originally settled the United States didn't get much 'help', because there wasn't any. Let's not have any more of this 'give away the country to appease your 3rd world business partners' garbage....Mexico could be rolling in money(some already are, they just don't share out) and feed, clothe, and educate every last one of their citizens, probably just off their oil revenues, but instead they'd like to ride the american guilt trip into a split-level condo...time for voters/taxpayers to wake the hell UP and say 'no mas' at the polls, come november...
