[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am only on page 1 so I am sorry if it has been said already.
But while I understand the human appeal, does anyone realize that any step towards legalization of those who entered illegally will open the floodgates? [/quote]

I'm okay with legal status to DACA recepients if we secure the border first, but not before.

I am *COMPLETELLY* sympathetic to the fact that may DACA recipients are probably more "American" in terms of cultural attachment than me, as an immigrant who came to the US at 11. However, I am also *COMPLETELY* against any type of amensty type program that is insitutted prior to instituting effective measures to combat illegal immigration. [/quote]

I don’t see how it can be done, without running into issues of human rights violation.
It would be easy if police could check for IDs, e-verify mandatory, no benefits in any states without proof of legal status. Yet this won’t fly. Oh and birthright citizenship. 
But no politician is suicidal enough to implement any of it. Let alone its against the laws...

How what can be done? Secure our borders? Build the wall. Physical barrier is not 100% effective, but it will be effective enough. [/quote]
It’s better than nothing, but!
What to do with 11-22 m ppl already here? 
And what about visa overstays? People smuggling?
But a non penetrable physical barrier is indeed better than nothing.[/quote]

DACA can stay, I think. Other illegals who did not come here as minor children must be deported if found. Same for visa overstays, people smuggling, and etc.

The reason why wages have been stagnant for the bottom 50% of American income earners is the flood of low-skill immigrants. It's plain economics that increased labor supply = lower wages. [b]The ones who benefit are the businesses and employers. You want to lower income inequality, then stop the flow of low skilled immigration. This will lead to wage growth for the lower income earners. Be ready/willing to pay more for your food, housing construction, yard work, domestic help, motel stays - put your money where your mouth is. [/b][/quote]

+ 1 million

I am more than willing to pay more for food/construction/etc.  People who do these jobs deserve more money.  And, if we pay more money, we'll get legal immigrants and/or US citizens to do the jobs.  [/quote]

+1. Absolutely. None of those services should be as cheap as they are now. It’s not right. [/quote]
