While running for governor,Kinky Friedman came up with what I consider to be a good idea for controlling the tide of illegal aliens.Now,keep in mind,he said that he knew this could never be implemented.But it was still a perfect example of the kind of radical thinking we need to control this problem.
His idea was that we divide the border up into 5 sections.We then hire 5 generals from the mexican army and assign each a section of border to patrol(on their side).Then,for each general we open an escrow account of $1,000,000.Every time we catch an illegal coming across the border we deduct $10,000 from the account of the general in charge of that section.
What do you think about this?Would it work?

I think it is a bizarre idea. Maybe Kinky is getting too much second hand marijuana smoke.

Ummm...no becuase they would find a way to kepp that extravagant salary and still smuggle in the illegals. That wouldn't work. But dividing up the border into zones to manage is a pretty good idea! In small chunks things are easier to handle!

ok while i became traing my QH mare to trip and artwork barrels and poles she had a similar concern, that's what worked for me before everything she continually had a claustraphobic element occurring from the time she became given to me at 6 months previous. She might combat being tied or constrained in a trailer any element that hindered her circulation. while i began her she might do great untill I placed pressue on her to flow removed from leg stress or pull a sprint on the bit , like on an identical time as i became turning the third barrel she might pull the oppisite way from me as quickly as I picked up the interior rein. I mean she might get mad stop and take off backwards! whipping the butt did no longer do it! It took me approximately 6 months have a dozen bits and a lot of slow affected person artwork. before everything I got here out of this understanding the bit became putting her right into a panic the snafflle area became too small and purchase that I mean the diameter of it. i offered a definite blocker tie from one among Clinton andersons clinics and this help taught her to no longer combat and pull lower back from now on while tied . and that i got here across a competent bit Hollis gag vast twisted broken interior the middle mouth piece greater diameter that she loves and now as quickly as I %. her up she responds fantastically i assume what i'm attempting to declare is a few thing is the two bodily or phscologically bothering her. the circles do artwork and in specific circumstances while she takes to the air lower back ward turn it around on her and make her save backing making her think of it became your thought. do no longer provide up.

impossible. There is never going to be a set stopping time. Plus that lets them opt to be in favor of our laws or not. They could aide the people crossing and supply them with whatever they might need not to get caught. And then we'd be paying them to help people illegally enter the country. Kind of a stupid idea all around, but it is thinking out of the box.

Since the Democrats want to raise taxes, I propose an immigrant worker tax paid by the immigrant worker's salary. Then, they must purchase a work permit from a government agency funded by their income. An annual renewal fee is charged. Then, they must pay for driver's education, their own medical care & worker's comp insurance via wage taxes. Then, they pay a tax for a valid picture ID, fingerprinting and background check. They must pay a tax for educating their children and a tax for public services like sewage, street lighting, law enforcement, etc.
For each year in the USA, they must go back for one year to make room for other migrant workers. English literacy is mandatory in all cases.
Everyone wins!

Or everytime we find an illegal on our side..that general gets shot between the eyes and replaced with a new one.

I like that, but they make much more money by having illegals send their money back home. Interesting idea though.

I think people would eventually be stealing that money and it would end up in the hands of corruption.
