[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If we're going to be intellectually honest about this debate, we should remember that "they should go back to their home country" or "I want them gone" or "get them out" = Deportation Force with Elian Gonzalez style raids and apprehensions and transportation costs back to wherever.  We should factor in the full cost of a Deportation Force against the public resources being used by DACA kids.  Is it worth the cost?[/quote]
There's a middle ground between Elian Gonzalez raids (and let's face it, the DACA "kids" are adults so no comparison) and a path to citizenship, where they can vote and love off government assistance programs.

I say....permanent legal residence, but.....no vote, no benefits.

I'd also like to see the anchor baby law amended, since it has been perverted beyond its original intention. (Had to do with slaves brought here against their will, and the children born here.) No way was it intended for poor, uneducated people to enter the country illegally, push out a few kids, and get them all on food stamps and other benefits. [/quote]
