What about the ones with forged documents ? Is this crime just to be dropped ?
1. It would cost more to haul them all back to Mexico than it's worth. Just let them stay, issue them identification, make sure none of them are terrorists, and force companies to pay them normal citizen market wages.
2. They should be forced to pay all government taxes which they owe. They shouldn't be given social security credits and such for the years they were in the US illegaly, even if they paid into the system.
3. They should be required to learn English, even if they aren't on a road to citizenship, just for pragmatic purposes. We might also consider classes in American culture.
4. Fine every company that hired them knowingly. I'm not sure how much it should be. It shouldn't be enough to break the economy.
5. Allow them to apply for citizenship - and put them BEHIND all the citizens from their native countries that had already applied.
6. Establish an immigration quota system that favors those who wish to reside in lower population areas. Places like California just can't handle many more immigrants, while the midwest and south have an opposite (too low of a population) problem. We might consider favoring those who have the ability to make more income - this would put less burden on social services. It might also be opposed by those on the left, because it hurts the poor who want to immigrate.
7. Don't break up families.

Bush doubled the debt from 5 trillion to 10 trillion.
Proving tax cuts work!
Bush asked for and signed for the TARP money.
The Republican senate leader backed Bush on this.
Well, I thought for a second that instead of screaming at all of those heavily concerned with immigration and calling them racist I may as well tell them my position on things instead.
Point six is just a personal idea I had. Obviously, we couldn't do much once they were citizens. But we could, at least, insure that they would at least have the first place of residence in areas that wouldn't be overburdened by population. They could still pick up and move if they wanted to, but it would at least provide some sort of incentive not to.

So you want them to become citizens, but tell them where to live ? sheesh...

I know that.
Well unless they are sex offenders or criminals.

Criminals, yes.
But not sex offenders, being that sex offenders are citizens. Maybe you meant felons? Felons have restricted right. The only thing I can think of that sex offenders have more restricted than other felons is that they're crime is broadcast to the world forever and they can never distance themselves from it no matter what repetance or time they've done.
I'm not saying that sex offenders are great, but they are less dangerous than practically any other kind of violent offender whenever it comes to recividism. Most of them aren't even violent offenders. A lot of crimes that have little or nothing to do with sex are included in the classification just to stir up fear on part of the politician. Georgia passed a sex offender law that borders on violating basic human rights last year.
I shouldn't have changed the topic of this thread...
Hijacked my own thread...
I said much the same, many months ago. I simply added this:
Those who illegally migrated; let them pay for the Social Security gap, in fines.
Synergy is such a difficult concept...for idiots.
Stop supporting partisan agendas. Support America.
Excellence is an art won by training and habituation. We do not act rightly because we have virtue or excellence, but rather we have those because we have acted rightly. We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act but a habit.
- -- Aristotle
Believe nothing on the faith of traditions, even though they have been held in honor for many generations and in diverse places. Do not believe a thing because many people speak of it. Do not believe on the faith of the sages of the past. Do not believe what you yourself have imagined, persuading yourself that a God inspires you. Believe nothing on the sole authority of your masters and priests. After examination, believe what you yourself have tested and found to be reasonable, and conform your conduct thereto.
- -- The Buddha
It is the mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it.
- -- Aristotle
