What exactly is your compassionate solution?

The best way is to setup a system that doesn't exploit illegals who are in a bad situation.

This would be to disincentivize both the use of illegal labor, and disincentivize staying here illegally.

I would says $250k fines for using illegal labor.

50% taxes on remittances.

Another DP and I agree with this. No chance a Republican would ever suggest such a thing, though.

Bush wanted a guest worker program. Dems said no

Temporary work visas already exist.
Immigration laws are not perfect, but they would work a whole lot better if they were followed and enforced.

Please explain why you're so eager to catch Trump committing illegal acts, but have no issue with illegal immigrants. You know, people who are breaking our laws every single minute of every single day. Thanks.

Stop with the us vs. them. It's ugly.

These "illegals" were brought here through no fault of their own. They are Americans in every sense except for the piece of paper that says so. It would be cruel to send them back, breaking up families, sending them to countries they are unfamiliar with and may not speak the language. It's effing cruel and so are the people who support it.

BTW, I have to ask: are you a Christian? Are you "pro-life"? Because if you are, and you support deporting these people, you are neither Christian nor pro-life.

Lastly, I also have to say that if you've ever so much as broken the speed laws you're a worse person than these DACA folks, who were not at fault for being her illegally. And, you're a hypocrite to boot. I guarantee that most -if not all- the people on this board have broken a law at some point. Thus, You can take your law-abiding citizen high-ground and stuff it.

This country is becoming cruel, and cold, and is lacking in basic decency and compassion. And it's vile. These people deserve to stay and calling them "illegal" while knowing the circumstances of them coming here is lacking human decency.

Yes, human beings who are breaking the law. What part of that do you a) not understand and b) condone?

Trump has cheated contractors out of hard earned money, run around on his wives, lies, chests steals. He is immoral and sold out his country and have a traitor. We should have built a wall around him.

99% of illegals simply want a decent life. Frankly, if they would learn to speak English, I would have no problem with giving all of them a path to citizenship. It's a huge country and plenty of room to accommodate them.

Trump was born here and had trouble speaking English.

Shortly after FDR was elected President, he commissioned a study of poverty and hunger in. In interviewing an elderly mountain woman she said, "It's a whole lot worse to be soul hungry than stomach hungry."

OP and his/her ilk are proof that we are a nation whose soul is on the verge of starvation.

We have so much that there is no need to hoard.

God help us and save and protect us from the OP, Trump, and all the greedy, selfish, self-absorbed/entitled reactionaries.

How much of your family income will you hand over to support our illegal immigrants?

My taxes pay for many things as do yours. You are stupid.
