I'm stating my question differently-many didn't understand that when I said people were forced to come here illegally-I meant circumstances forced them to, their children starving homelessnes, no jobs, even elementary ed must be paid for, no oppurtunities and no hope. They can not come here legally. It takes decades and thousands of dollars to even have a chance. They ride on train tops, cross deserts, dangerous rivers, packed in semis, often raped, robbed etc, and sometimes try dzn's of times before they are successful. Once here they work cheaply which lowers our costs for products, pay taxes everytime they purchase. If legalized would pay more taxes, be tracible with SS numbers, learn english as requirement for citizenship, be deported if broke law, increase tax base we need to support aging population, law enforcement, courts, jails, wouldn't be out money to deal with them as illegals. Most aren't gang members, drug runners, welfare bums. Break the law to feed/house child-I would!
