yes ok i am bias on this subject I know plenty of illegal immigrants and personally hate immigration (INS)- or maybe that makes me simply more informed not bias- but anyway- this makes me almost laugh and almost cry at the stance some of the presidential candidates take on this issue.
My favorite is in a new york times "article" http://politics.nytimes.com/election-guide/2008/issues/immigration/index.html. Mitt Romney has a brilliant idea- lets have all immigrants register to see who should be allowed to get a work permit and who should get deported. yes that a nice idea then we can know who is in the country and eliminate illegal working condition-
WHAT DO YOU THINK IMMIGRATION (INS) HAS BEEN TRYING TO DO FOR THE PAST SEVERA DECADES? invite illegal immigrants for tea?
Illegal immigrants are here because they figured out how to play the system and not get caught- why would they voluntarily come to sign up when there is a possibility of deportation?
Tom Tancredo also has a brilliant idea- lets follow the law- its clear and simple- deport all illegal immigrants and not offer them jobs- your such a visionary tom-
ya thanks for that but see thats the status quo- if an illegal immigrant gets caught they get sent home and its already illegal to hire illegal immigrants
and I am once again disapointed with Giuliani- who wants a fence around our southern border and strict policies on illegal immigration- honestly honey what is the point of your existence? if you are not even closely representing NYC then what are you running on? Its in NYC that children - regardless of legal status get free education and are allowed to go to college- where hospitals must admit everyone if in critical condition and its the city is on economic dependance on illegal emigrant work. i would think he would know that the illegal immigration issue is a bit more complicated.

I agree that the suggestions put forth by Tancredo and Giuliani are completely unreasonable. Simply asking illegal immigrants to register themselves is foolhearty and unrealistic, as is trying to build a wall the length of Mexico's border. What is not unreasonable, however, is trying the come up with a way to deter illegal immigration. I think it's time that Americans worry more about the living and working conditions they are subjecting Mexican to by importing low-priced goods and services from across the border and be pro-active about how the make people WANT to stay in Mexico.
