Your rationale for that opinion?
Sounds more like privileges than rights. Isn't the point of negative rights that they don't have to be earned?I dont think uninvited guests should have rights. I do think if those guest are allowed to stay and work for years and years at some point they do earn rights.

They should be afforded no rights. Oh, we shouldn't treat them cruelly, but there should be no rights attached to their illegal endeavor. Our rights to preserve our nation against invasion should be paramount.
The right to vote with ones feet is sacrosanct. Nothing supersedes this.They should be afforded no rights. Oh, we shouldn't treat them cruelly, but there should be no rights attached to their illegal endeavor. Our rights to preserve our nation against invasion should be paramount.

Can you specify which rights? Right to be treated fairly as per the Constitution if accused of a crime? Right to receive public aid if otherwise not committing a crime? It's unfair to ask such a vague question then watch everybody twist in the wind trying to guess what you meant.Yes
No

Everyone has a right to own property in the US, even non-residents. The US is the worlds premier asset haven, so foreigners from all over buy property. As far as work goes, seems like you'd be violating a citizens right to free association. What gives you the right to tell business owners who they can hire, or landlords who they can rent to?They can have basic rights of privacy and representation but not a right to work for pay, own property,
Some rights. There are certainly some that are reserved for citizens. However, notably, the Bill of Rights never uses the word citizen. Everyone in this country, regardless of how they came to be there, is protected by the Bill of Rights.

A lot of crappy countries don't allow foreigners to own property, but all the countries that top the Heritage Foundations Economic Freedom Index do.Business is regulated by Congress and the States by Constitution. So the Constitution, state and federal, gives the right to regulate business. As far as the ownership of property, we should have stopped that ages ago, most nations don't allow it. But even keeping it, good, gives us something to seize when they're found here illegally. Helps pay for their deportation.
I am sorry, I should have mentioned the Bill Of Rights in the OP.Can you specify which rights? Right to be treated fairly as per the Constitution if accused of a crime?

So inalienable rights. The answer should be obvious then. Can't legislate those away.I am sorry, I should have mentioned the Bill Of Rights in the OP.
