Maybe it’s time for Mexican illegal internment camps? How else are you going to handle this? They say they can’t round up 12 million illegals. They are aboslutely right. You can’t round them up and deport them........ unless you start the process. If they wanted to start this process, all they have to do is include American citizens in the process and they would have all the help they needed. At the same time, secure the border and make our laws mirror the country that the illegals are coming from.
No camps needed.
If existing laws on employment were enforced, 50% of them would self-deport. If we cleared up the 14th amendment, the rest would go.
I’m here in S. Utah, exactly 6 miles from the AZ border. St. George, Utah.
If people in the rest of the US could see what was going on down here, they would rip their hair out. I’m nearly ready to move back to Ohio to escape this, despite the horrible winters.
When I lived in NE Ohio, until fall of 2006, I couldn’t really understand the big deal, even though I had a close friend in SD, who warned me. Illegal immigration complants were racist, in my mind.
Then I moved here. Holy shit. Folks, it’s a whole other world out there.
I am not heartless. I was on site when ICE busted our place and dragged some of my coworkers away. I was shook up the rest of the day.
That said, finding a job without being bilingual is a challenge. The stories about homes overstuffed with people are no joke. I learned what the term “hotsheeting” was when I moved here. It is also true that nearly all amigos shop for groceries with a foodstamp card (can’t remember what they call it here); I am behind them in line every day. It is also true that they get preferential treatment in ERs. I personaly witnessed an English speaking woman being turned away in Dixie Medical Center because she had no insurance for her child, with 75% of the waiting room being Spanish speaking.
There is NO DAY that I go out to run errands without seeing a mom who is Latino, pushing a stroller with a youngster, with two little ones walking with her. And, she is pregnant. Always pregnant. I love babies as much as anyone, I only had one because that is what we could afford. It never occured to me to have more than that, and hand taxpayers the bill.
Our schools here are ruined, with the ESL requirements. Utah looks the other way on illegals in order to bring converts to the “faith.” Plus, LDS folks are frugal and cheap labor doesn’t bug them. Just ask a waitress. They know if you are from “back east” by how you tip. Mormon’s tip 10% and no more. Their explanation is “The Lord only gets 10%, so that should be good enough for YOU!” I grew up back east; the only way I’d tip 10% is if the server threw the food in my face. I taught my son to calculate a 20% tip when he was 9 years old!
Stop hiring them. Let the wages rise. And quit sticking the taxpayers with the “benefit package.”
Here is something that should be of great interest for you to pass around.
Back during The Great Depression, President Herbert Hoover ordered the deportation of ALL illegal aliens in order to make jobs available to American citizens that desperately needed work.
Harry Truman deported over two million Illegal’s after WWII to create jobs for returning veterans.
And then again in 1954, President Dwight Eisenhower deported 4 million Mexican nationals! The program was called ‘Operation Wetback’ so that American WWII and Korean veterans had a better chance at jobs. It took 2 Years, but they deported them!
Now, if they could deport the illegals back then, they can sure do it today!!
