Speaking of learning English...
“...decapitate their ability to obtain a visa...”
It’s embarrassing.
......decapitate their ability to obtain a visa......
Agree. You know... I am not what you call a super educated person (w Masters and PHds and the rest), but stupid, I am not. I always suspected there was a reason why the US did not want to control the borders... I was naive at one time, I actually thought that people, Americans, Corporations, sure wanted MONEY like every one else, but NOT at the expense of the "Country." Now I learned that business themselves pushed the last Bush to give Amnesty to illegals... They don't want the BORDER FIXED!... I guess the want the slave labor. But i don't understand how Republicans themselves, do not want to fix the problem and that surprised me!... Especially now that all those job who the illegals did, are gone!... We don't have them even for our own poor people... so why do we want more unskilled labor?
I can understand the DEMS wanting amnesty for illegals...VOTES...Millions of eventual "Democratic" votes... when their children or illegals become American Citizens as many will I am sure.
But what is in it for the Republicans? Do you know?
For instance, i don't believe for one second the US is not "capable" of guarding our borders - Because they are so "vast" as some people want to makes us believe! - With all the technology we have... This should not be a problem. we could use walls/fences where needed, electronics, air surveillance... whatever, just for protection's sake, never mind about the illegals crossing it.
I have never, ever blamed the "illegals" (I have known several of them....all they want to do is work!). I BLAME those interests who want them here but don't want their profiles known
I hope PEOPLE wake up some day and if nothing else, be more aware of the games, politicians play with us. etc etc etc...
Bottom line, this COULD BE FIXED, but some one does not want to do it... The real question, at least in mi mind is, when will the average, regular people catch on to this game politicians and corporations play and begin to ask/demand a SOLUTION to this problem?
Hopefully NEWT will at try to address this problem in the right way, but the idea of taking "All the illegals putting in a train and taking then to the border.." is simply... ridiculous... Many of them will stay here, I guarantee it... but if at least we fixed the problem ONCE AND FOR ALL, then it would be worthwhile.
AND THEN, we should be vigilant and make sure this country protects their borders and control immigration with very tough penalties for businesses or people who brake the rules. But we should expect the US to protect our borders. We have the right to choose whom we want here. Period.
