In other words, you don't think anyone should get in, and you also support the maintenance of entitlement programs for natives?

RAID also works against ants.
I could live with a 15 year "otherwise" crime free statute of limitation amnesty, as you described it.Not 3/5/10 or 14yrs 11 months.
With a penalty.
So long as it is set in stone, perhaps with a constitutional ammendment, that it will never,ever happen again.
Come here willingly and legally to join us, add your flavor to the USA melting pot, and be welcomed and respected!
Steal your way in,no dice.Try Canada.

I figure anyone who can survive 15 years without welfare and working, should get a hearing and a chance.

You have some very good suggestions for solving the illegal immigrant problem. I hope some capable INS people are lurking.
We also had an ant problem (doesn't everyone in Florida). The ants were sneaking in to eat our cat Georgio's food. We called the exterminator and moved the food to a less accessible location. Problem solved.
The real nasty ones are the fire ants! Some of them bit my right foot on election day as I was waving a Jeb sign. I think they were Dems....LOL

Thank you so much for your great essay! This makes a lot of sense to me:
Any individual caught in the U.S. illegally should be deported, and not allowed to return to this country, for any reason, for life. But I also think that if we find someone who has been here illegally for fifteen years, working, not breaking laws, setting roots, and otherwise being a model member of the community, we need to give them special consideration, and try thinking out of the box for a kinder solution.

In other words, you don't think anyone should get in, and you also support the maintenance of entitlement programs for natives? People can get in through legal channel. Breaking the law should not be encouraged. Entitlement programs, are part of the infrastructure the government provides for the citizens to make their living. We can debate on which are necessary infrastructures and which are waste of $. But we should not put an end to some of these, just for the sole reason that it will discourage people from breaking the law.

They're paying taxes! That's supporting our society, from one perspective. I don't have an opinion on the number of years though.

I agree, most people would not like to leave the country of their birth. BUT...when they can make more money and/or a better life for themselves and their families elsewhere - well isn't that what our ancestors did? They left the various countries where they were born and had extended families and left it all to come here for a better life. We encouraged it.
Americans have fostered the "Streets Paved with Gold" myth for so long and have for years encouraged people to come here. We, as much as the illegals are a part of the problem. We encourage this "industry" by hiring them to work the farms and orchards, housework, shelling crabs and other miscellaneous and dirty jobs that pay next to nothing and that most Americans won't do.
Moving our industry south isn't going to help us or them, in fact it will be putting people out of work here in the states and where does that leave us - more people on the dole, getting unemployement, etc. Why can't the people in the countries south of us start their own businesses? Learn to help themselves? Isn't there enough incentive offered by their own government? Why must we always be the ones to dole out monies for other countries? They have natural resources, let them utilize them. Let them pay their own way for a change instead of relying on Uncle Sam's supposedly deep pockets. We don't have the money to support every person/country in the world and solve their problems when we have so many problems right here in our own country.
Isn't it time that America started taking care of Americans instead of the world?

WOW!!!!! 65" inch tv!!!!!!!!!!!! Tracy and Hepburn - one of the best pairings that the firm industry ever made. There is only one other person that Katherine Hepburn ever made a movie with that is worth seeing and that is BABY with Cary Grant.

A friend of mine came here legally from Ukraine (He's now a citizen). He's been here about 5 years now, and has just recently brought over his fiance. She has a green card and is here legally as well, but she goes to university on the US Gov't. This type of payout is horse***t. She in effect is being paid to come here and go to school.
