That system worked pretty well back in 1954 and worked in less than one year. Trump needs 18 months to two years because there are so many more.

California might once again look like part of America.

The overcrowding. The bars on the windows. The graffiti. The surly gangs infesting once pleasant California suburbs would all be gone.

Obama Country could return to being Reagan County.

when all the illegal migrants were gone, America would find itself reeling from a self-inflicted economic wound.

School Teachers and Slumlords hit hardest.

“That is pure stupidity. This writer belongs in a zoo.”

Well he’s part of the Salem Media octopus, pushing their open borders, mass immigration line.

The cost of enforcement is sky-high because the border is a revolving door. For pete's sake, you can't let them in on Monday then round them up and ship them back on Tuesday, only to have them show up again on Wednesday!

The place to stop this tide is first, at the border. Then, at the root. So it takes a strong president to go to the foreign sponsors of this invasion and tell them in no uncertain terms that THEIR people are THEIR responsibility, not ours.

Anyone seen a strong president lately?

Interesting article. And yet, this headline: “DHS: ‘No Intention of Deporting’ Most Illegals. based on a recent appearance by the head of DHS.

What are we to make of all this?

Exactly. The benefits accrue to a handful of labor-intensive businesses, while the costs are spread across the entire taxpayer base. So the illegal-employers milk the taxpayers for profit.

Illegal immigration would become a lot less attractive if heavy fines were imposed on businesses that knowingly employed illegal aliens, or failed to exercise reasonable diligence in identifying employees as such. The money from the fines could go to offset the cost of enforcement, or to reimburse facilities that are stuck providing welfare services for these criminals.

They changed the meaning of deportation. Thus is BS.

Utter BS. We get our house in order, enforce and rationalize legal immigration processes (they are a mess), and millions will come here from everywhere.

As it is, there are no consequences for breaking immigration laws, and they are about impossible to comply with unless you have lots of money.

Deport the illegals. Rationalize the process. Welcome the law abiding immigrants. Wouldn’t take that long. And our economy would get a HUGE boost.

PS Demscum and GOPe, we are not against immigration. We are against illegal immigration by millions of scofflaws who then abuse our system and our people! DUH!

What a load of Bovine Excrement.The U.S. Would be in a safer,As well as finantially stable position if we were’nt careing for 30 million illegal aliens.Plus the additional 200,000 Muslims coming here from the third world crap holes.

Thing about the fewer dollars we’d have to spend tracking them to prevent possible terror attacks.

This country needs a Moritorium on Legal and illegal immigration.Untill we can get these illegals out of the country our society will continue on a very unstable pathway down the big sewer.

This is an oversimplification. It could be said that putting criminals in prison leaves the country poorer.

They have gotten at times a number for taxes to claim the child tax credits many times over.
In the city of Santa Ana, CA they had many filing false tax returns for tens of thousands of dollars.
No prosecution of the law was taken on this matter.

I have a simple solution to the cost factor. Let’s put a million dollar bounty on each illegal. 30 million illegals = $30 million bucks to capture and depart. Money well spent.

Cut off the Dole to AL who are not citizens or to minors whose parents are not citizens and the high cost of living here will make them self deport.
