Why are they trying to fix this problem by providing amnesty for people who are breaking the law when the process for becoming a citizen legally be made a little less conveluted... I don't like the idea of compromising for this because they are deciding to come here so they should want to do what it takes but I don't think that the process needs to be as messed up as it is.
Note: I am NOT saying to make the process easier I'm just saying why not make it a little confusing..

Our welfare system will have to be overhauled also because it will not handle the 12 million PLUS that will instantly be eligible for working poor status and receive assistance (which most are getting anyway)
I have no problem with tinkering with the process which allows a person to become a legal citizen BUT THEY ARE NOT APPLYING they skip that step and want amnesty. This of course kicks sand in the face of those who went the legal route.
We have laws, enforce them and increase penalties to corporate America. The last amnesty caused a flood of 12 million (conservative estimate)
What will the current amnesty cause? (earning plan for the PC) 50 million? 150 million? 1 Billion?

Immigrants are the ones that keep your groceries cheap, same with other things because they are underpaid.
With getting this immigrants legal status, they will also start paying taxes, that is 12 million people more paying taxes, and becoming your customers, and buying houses and benefiting the overall economy. It shouldn´t be illegal to come to the US to work, that is a humankind right, thet are not commiting any crime, so let´s regulate a procedure that already exists and get the best of it.

What is the world coming to when non-citizens can get amnesty for violating federal law, but a rich white woman (Paris Hilton) gets no pardon?

Who about closing the borders & enforcing the laws we have that will sent them back or put them in jail it is a felony to break federal laws & its making fools of all of us rewarding criminals. NO Amnesty of any kind. Just my thought.

The problem is not how confusing the system is. The problem is that our elected officials are unwilling to do their job and have existing immigration laws enforced.
Time to get rid of them. I don't care what their motivation is, they are proving unsuited to be leaders.

I thought it was already confusing? ;-)
But my real complaint is that we law abiding citizens have paid taxes since birth to get the benefits these illegals are stealing.
