I voted for President Obama not once, but twice...looking at his speech to the nation last night I find myself regretting that decision. He can call his immigration plan anything he wants, but in the end it amounts to one thing...AMNESTY for Illegal Aliens. Oh, you broke our laws, have been here for say 5, 7 even ten years and never paid federal taxes, you have lowered the wage base forlower and middle class Americans for decades now, you have broken numerous federal laws, but guess what...YOU CAN STAY, AND YOU CAN WORK! Excuse me?
What happened to America being a nation of laws? Now we are sending a message to the world that says, "Come to America, hide in the shadows illegally, ignore our laws, and you eventually will be forgiven all your sins, and be granted a pathway to citizenship (AMNESTY). The line starts IN THE COUNTRY OF ORIGIN Mr. President, not in Nevada or whatever other state these criminals are residing in.
On taxes...if an illegal alien has been working in America for ten years, where is the fairness in only requiring them to pay three years in back taxes, with no penalties, no interest? Can EVERY AMERICAN TAXPAYER HAVE THE PERK? I would love a 7 year tax vacation, and sure most middle class Americans would as well. Sure if we all suddenly stopped paying our taxes that the IRS would soon be knocking on our door, we could find ourselves facing serious fines, penalties, interest, and perhaps even criminal prosecution.
Keeping the family together? Hello, is there any reason why these families of illegal aliens cannot KEEP THEIR FAMILIES TOGETHER IN THEIR COUNTRY OF ORIGIN? They want a better life, that is fine...let them APPLY FOR AMERICAN CITIZENSHIP, rather than coming here illegally and STEALING A BETTER LIFE from someone who is here in America legally. They are not undocumented workers, they are not undocumented citizens, they are not dreamers, they are by both definition and FEDERAL LAW illegal aliens, criminals who should be arrested, detained, prosecuted and deported.
Mr. Obama said it would be impossible to deport 11 million illegal aliens. Sorry Mr. President, but you are wrong...enforce our laws, make E-Verify the law of the land, shut down the jobs magnet (and the cheap wage base that comes with it), and prosecute ALL THOSE WHO HIRE ILLEGAL ALIENS, and would be willing to bet that 80 percent of those here in America illegally would SELF DEPORT when they could no longer find jobs...bonus in that approach...Legal American citizens can rejoin the work force, and WAGES WILL GO UP.
A Practical Approach To The Illegal Alien Problem In America
1. Secure our borders. (North and South)
2. Track down and deport all those who OVER STAY THEIR VISA.
3. Turn off job magnet by getting tough on ANY ONE who hires an illegal alien, be it a company (Hotels, Restaurants, Construction Trade, Lawn Care/Landscaping), an individual, or an institution.
4. Make E-Verify the law of the land, make it mandatory that all employees be able to verify their eligibility to legally work here in America as a part of the hiring process. CAN WE SAY GREEN CARD?
5. Eliminate all the loop holes and presidential orders that create ANY EXCEPTION TO THE RULES.
We are a nation of laws...then lets act like we are. As for Congress...stop your whining, and pass legislation that would deal with the problem EFFECTIVELY, rather than looking at any one group of illegal aliens (Latino's) as a future voting block that you have to appease. We do not appease terrorists, and we should not appease illegal aliens...they are criminals, plain and simple, and should be treated as such.
