If we deported ALL illegal aliens, then we could discontinue the welfare program because there would be jobs for EVERY legal citizen, saving billions in welfare payouts. If the previous welfare patrons don't want to work for a living, then too bad, no more govt money. If you don't think this would work, why not?

Won't work.
1. How the heck are we going to deport 12 million people? (it would get really ugly and be an expensive and never-ending task)
2. Most people on welfare are not willing or capable of working.
The illegal aliens are some of the best and hardest working americans...uh, people that we have in the country.
3. Welfare serves a necessary purpose. I'd rather *give* people money than push them down so hard they'd need to *steal* it from me. You never want to put down people so hard that they've got nothing to lose. (then they rise up against you)
Fun stuff to think about- but the dynamics of human society are a bit more complex than you allude to.

Keep in mind that if we deported all illegal aliens the price of living would skyrocket! You would be paying twice as much for a car wash, gardening, etc. The reason illegal aliens are hired in the first place is for the low wages that they will work for.
How much does it cost you when you go out to eat at a restaurant? That restaurant has to pay their dishwashers, janitorial help, gardeners and so on. If the business' expenses increase they must then raise their prices - so it eventually comes out of our pocket!

Hey, I thought you were done when you asked your OTHER racist question.
Where the heck have you been? This is not a new idea, deporting anyone who is not here legally. You didn't just think that one up did you? Why don't you go back to sleep and maybe you'll wake up a better person tomorrow.

Wouldn't work...Who's going to do the menial jobs that the illegal aliens do for low wages? Would you spend 8 hours a day in a hot field picking vegetables for minimum wage? If not, then who would? No one...Then the price of food would become more than most could afford.

Just because you dont care if prices go up, doesnt mean everybody else will feel the same way. Your last question didnt have too many supporters, you would think that you would have learned by now that your ideals are a bit extreme and not the norm.

That's not true. We are Americans, my husband got hurt at work and is applying for disability. It could take up to 2 years before he can receive anything. Leaving me to support our family of 7. I have worked my whole life and my husband has always worked, until this happened. We had to apply for food stamps in order to buy food, because, alone, I don't earn enough. I'm sure glad for the program to help my family at this time of need. I hope you never have to find yourself in my situation.

American people who have been living off the system for 3 generations will still be on welfare.Oh, I guess you have a diabolical plan for them too.

who can feed a family, pay the mortgage and car payments making minimum wage at Burger King?
Like it or not illegal aliens do the work we don't want to do.
