The illegal immigrants are costing us more than the war in Iraq annually.  I think it cost us over $200 billion per year.  It would only cost us $47 billion per year over 5 years to deport them.

What if?  It's not going to happen.  The government will do the same thing they did in '86 (?) and give them amnesty and citizenship.  They will also make the same promise that Kennedy (yes, the same fossil that's with us today) did then and promise that our borders will be secured and this illegal invasion will never happen again.

Eisenhower did a great thing back in the 50s.  He had a bunch rounded up and put them on ships back to Mexico.  Not just across the border but he sent them all the way down to the Yucatan and released them there.  It's one heck of a long trip back to where most of them were from.  Plus the Yucatan is a missiriable tropical area.  After a few boat loads the word got out and most packed up and went home.

What Is A Veteran?
A 'Veteran' -- whether active duty, discharged, retired, or reserve -- is someone who, at one point in his life, wrote a blank check made payable to 'The United States of America,' for an amount of 'up to, and including his life.' That is honor, and there are way too many people in this country today who no longer understand that fact.

Just quit all social and government support for illegal immigrants.  No US citizenship for children born of illegals, severe penalties for employers, no welfare, no government housing, nothing.  They will leave of their own accord, if they cannot get something here.  The reason they came was for work, send money home, have their children automatically obtain US citizenship and use the social services.  Without this, there isn't any reason for staying.  I don't mind having to present my US citizenship or birth certificate when required to present identification.  It is only those who don't have it, that would object.  The same has happened with Social Security numbers.  My original social security card clearly states "not to be used for identification purposes", yet that is a person's military ID number now.  Try and get a drivers license without one or a credit card.  A national ID stating citizenship exists and that is called a passport.  If the government can issue social security cards, they can issue passports to only legal citizens.  Without one, you don't go to work or receive social benefits.  What is so hard about it?  Send them packing.

From the NYT, May 1, 1987: " LEAD: The Reagan Administration, in a reversal, today announced policy changes that will make it easier for thousands of illegal aliens to obtain legal status under the new immigration law."

I don't think the Yucatan is quite as bad as it used to be, what with all the American
tourist, but it would be a start.

Your right!  I forgot about Reagan giving up (what were called the small things) in order to move his agenda forward.

I am with Deltecs on that one. Why spend money on rounding them up and feeding them.

Deltecs nailed it!

You'd still have millions here working.....fine.....we'd do the same to get better $$ for our families.  However, the free education, assistance, food stamps, etc needs to stop.  Couple this with a national sales tax and stiff penalties to employers and we'd be in business.
Of course, that won't happen.

It's got to start in the states and cities where the illegals are getting their benefits.

Of course, we could round them all up easy enough::

Is it just me or does anyone else find it absolutely amazing that
the U.S. government can track a cow born in Canada almost three
years ago, right to the stall where she sleeps in the state of
Washington, and determine exactly what that cow ate. They can
also track her calves right to their stalls, and
tell you what kind of feed they ate.

But they are unable to locate 11 million illegal
aliens wandering around in their country.

My solution is to give every illegal alien a cow as
soon as they enter the country.
