Could we give the illegals amnesty if....?

Question

OK, here's a good idea for giving the illegals amnesty. I personally think we should send them back to Mexico, but there are so many people calling for amnesty, so I'll give it to them, IF...

Before they get amnesty, they receive a bill.
This is a bill for all of the taxes they would have paid to the government for however many years they were here.
Any health care that had while in this country gets put on the bill.
If their children went to Public School during the time they were in America, they get a bill for that too, because they didn't pay for their children's education like we citizens have.
They get billed for a portion of all money spent patrolling the border.
They get billed for the cost of re-eradicating diseases like Polio that they are bringing into the country.
They get billed for the increased cost of law enforcement in "Sanctuary cities", where illegals are bringing up the crime rate.

And when they pay their bill, they get 100% amnesty. How does that sound?

Answer 1

LOL, under your plan we wouldn't have to deport anyone. They'd see the amount of their bills and run like hell south to the border and never look back.

Now back to the reality channel...great idea...impossible to implement. We can't figure the tax they owe since most are day laborers and are paid under the table. We'd have to come up with a fixed penalty dollar number...same for health care.
Good thoughts though...more thought in your post than all the politicians have put into this issue combined.

Answer 2

Health care costs imposed by illegals are estimated at something like 1 billion. Divided over 12 million illegals, that's only 83 bucks a piece. That's one of the bigger cost estimates I've heard. Back taxes would be bigger, for those working under the table, but many of them paid taxes already (under stolen SSNs), and haven't been filing returns - they may actually be 'owed' money - and the tax bill of those working off the books would be hard to calculate.

So it'd be hard to tabulate the bill, and it might not be high enough to discourage them.

I think sticking to our guns and insisting they obey the law is a better bet. But, granting some consideration for coming forward, rather than having to hunt them all down, might be a practical compromise. Outright Amnesty isn't a good idea, but a work visa and a place in line for citizenship /behind/ legal immigrants might not be too unreasonable.

Amnesty when you broke our regulations merely transferring into into our united states - Illegally? No! human beings, this united states received't proceed to be which includes it really is, if we keep turning a blind eye to what's taking position. we are permitting our authorities to bend over backwards when you come right here illegally. recommendations you, i'm for immigration, yet criminal immigration. Do any of you've a dictionary, and truly understand the thanks to apply it? look up the be conscious criminal, and then unlawful. The very last I heard, this united states became giving the illegals charge playing cards (alongside with each and every thing else), and who will be procuring those, even as they fail to? Oh, it really is suitable, cause them to criminal, supply them $50,000.00, welcome to our united states, make yourselves at abode.. BULL! it really is going to take time and funds to get rid of the ILLEGALS, yet human beings, we've were given to start up.

Unlawful Entry is a CRIME. America love it or leave it. Unlawful Entry is a CRIME. Leave it Now. Zero tolerance for immigration-law violators! No amnesty, no "stealth-amnesty." No "change of status," marriage fraud, "exceptional leave to remain," no "Temporary Protected Status." If you break the law, depart or be deported. Illegal aliens kill more US citizens each year than the war in Iraq has killed in four years. Apologists for illegal immigration like to paint it as a victimless crime. But in fact, illegal immigration causes substantial harm to American citizens and legal immigrants, particularly those in the most vulnerable sectors of our population--the poor, minorities, and children. Additionally, job competition by waves of illegal immigrants willing to work at substandard wages and working conditions depresses the wages of American workers, hitting hardest at minority workers and those without high school degrees. Illegal immigration also contributes to the dramatic population growth overwhelming communities across America--crowding school classrooms, consuming already limited affordable housing, and straining precious natural resources like water, energy, and forestland. Taxpayers are being forced to pay for the free health care, education, and other welfare programs being given to illegal aliens; Those tax dollars could be given back to U.S. taxpayers or used to keep our borders secure; They may be here illegally, but they sure know how to "work the system" to collect "free" medical care, "free" education, "free" food, Section 8 housing vouchers and other housing assistance, and hundreds of other social services. It costs citizens additional hundreds of billions of tax dollars at every level: local, state, and federal. It gobbles up billions of our charitable contributions. And much of that money ends up siphoned out of our economy and into offshore accounts. Illegal aliens, over half of whom work "under the table" with neither job nor income reported (nor taxed), are not counted as employed or unemployed. But some of those day-labor and off-the-books "job-lets" would be "real" jobs - available to American citizen job-seekers - if employment regulations were enforced. Illegal aliens can get away with tax evasion, et al., which citizens cannot. In short, we have too many workforce entrants and too few jobs created. The ratio works out to roughly 7-10 workforce entrants per job created. If all illegal aliens depart or are deported, all legal immigration halted, and all temporary employment visas abolished, we still have a problem with more US-born workforce entrants than new jobs created. Illegal immigration damages our country and our citizens every day at every level. And not even the attacks of 2/26 and 9/11 have awakened many Americans to the vast dangers illegal immigration poses to our selves, our families, our communities, our society, our values, our principles, our civilization. Zero Tolerance for Immigration-Law Violators! We must remember the lessons of 2/26, 9/11, and the costs we bear every single day. God Bless the U S A !

Answer 5

It sounds good. But where would they come up with all that money. Hay I say have the Mexico Government start forking out some of the tab.

Answer 6

Good idea but there is a MAJOR drawback. Some politician trying to buy a few more votes would soon try to forgive all that debt. Just keep it simple and send all illegals back where they came from.

Answer 7

you know the only reason that wont work out like we would like it to? the damn politicians for amnesty would create and pass a bill giving them cash money so that they could pay that bill. like you said, no matter what, we lose.......

Answer 8

WRONG!!!!! Your ideas would never work because they don't make enough money to ever pay the "bill." Currently it is estimated that we have to shell out over $22,400 for each illegal family each year. That includes taking into account sales tax, property tax from their rent, etc... (I think the tax paid estimate is too high.)

The illegals are destroying our communities. We should NEVER reward criminals when they are breaking the law.

Answer 9

I don't want to give anyone amnesty, I just want them the hell out of my country

Answer 10

How about , we deport them to Iraq , its the least ,Iraq could
do for us in exchange, of getting rid of Saddam.
