I already addressed that. It is merely a question of scale and resolve.
Further, I think that once a serious effort to deport them all is undertaken, and this effort targets the deportations and parallel legal pressure on the support systems these illegals use, (providers of false papers, language help, currency exchange) driving assistance underground and up in price, and many will start to leave on their own.
"Good" enough is not a relevant goal. We are talking about deserved punishment. A better question to ask is "Was it bad enough ?" |
Do you know any of your "countrymen" that have been "undercut"?
Because your talking to one right now.
I lost tens of thousands to unlicensed illegal Mexican contractors in a very direct way.
I share 1 thing in common with you. I also want them out.
But I also believe it is people like you that have no sympathy for them that only empower and entrench their position here by infuriating the liberals and human rights groups.
And its also plain morally wrong to remove them in such a way that will cause great suffering.
The only thing that matters here is what our "Realistic" options are.
The great Mexican Round Up is a fantasy.
Its not going to happen, regardless of who wins the election.
And its not going to happen in 4 or 8 or 12 more years either.
So stop fueling your opposition by supporting a fantasy that will never be.
And support something that will work towards the same goal instead.
Making them unwelcome instead of having Americans lined up with cash in their hands, is the best way to accomplish what you want.
It may not be the most direct way, but its a realistic plan.
Controlling our border in addition to making it difficult for them to work will yield a positive effect.
Instead, we have Congressmen saying that we have an "urgent need" for more Mexican workers.
What we have an urgent need for... is putting these people in prison that are making a profit off the backs of the illegals at the cost of screwing the American worker.
