So, what is your comment on this?

So, if they want to commit suicide, its their problem.

If we had minefields, we could eliminate some more.

Shanna, they bought their tickets, they knew what they were getting into. I say, let 'em die.

We have been screaming about tighter border security.
This is the good result.
Now they know the risk.

Now,

If we can arrange the same result for the people who hire them we'll be getting somewhere.

Itsvern, now I know your position and I agree with you as well as Amus.

I don't like to see anyone get killed (except terrorists), but when you break the law, you take your risks.

If you want to hold employers accountable, you have to give them the tools. If someone applies for a job, and has the documentation required, you cant say, I think your an illegal, I'm not going to hire you.

Now, I know there are employers that abuse the system, but until we get a much better way to identify illegals, its nearly impossible to hold employers responsible.

It is easy to identify an illegal. You offer them next to nothing for work and they nod and smile. A real citizen laughs at you and leaves. Nail the employers, because they profit by exploitation, not the workers who were drawn here by our myth of prosperity and opportunity. Tell the world how in debt we are, how most families live paycheck to paycheck, show them our millions of homeless, and the many millions in prison. Let folks around the globe see our plight. Seeing all the old familiar problems, they will be more likely to stay home rather than risk their necks for a piece of a lie.

So we are back to a citizenship check.

Did a poll on Kos on this topic. People are split 50/50 on it. Bizzare, and likely the problem with effective solutions at this point.
