Retina Scan & Fingerprint all Illegal Aliens to Begin Immigration Reform

howdy

we have moved from our big place in santa ynez to a smaller place in lompoc (we were getting too old to keep the place up)

we used the money from the sale to buy or house in lompoc and two houses in south eastern washington (as rentals)

i no longer need the vinegar or liniment you recommended, i got a gastric bypass and have shed over 150 pounds with another 100 pounds to go

i no longer need most of my medications and within a year i will not need almost all of them

i know what you mean by how hardworking immigrants are...i was running electricity from my house in the city of san fernando to my garage and i had to dig a ditch between the house and garage

at the same time i had hired two men to paint my house, one of them saw me struggling with my pickax and took it from me and in a short time had dug the ditch for me, he worked quite hard and fast

we enjoy living in lompoc - we live in an old neighborhood where people know each other and watch out for each other

the population is an interesting mix of people that work at vandenburg air force base and latinos, also the weather is better

as for the illegals that cross the border, most come in through az, nm and tx now, although many still make their way in to the food growing areas of ca...mostly farms and ranches

solvang does not change very much nor do the ranches and farms

although the residents are somewhat conservative, they are getting more liberal...especially the workers not the big property owners

we have people here that commute to la and santa barbara from here, in fact quite a few that commute from the santa ynez area to la

there is some new housing, but there is a 5 acre restriction on how small new properties can be

as for the op, winterborn described the costs involved rather thoroughly

while finger print scanners have gotten lower in price, the retinal scanners are still rather expensive - also there may be constitutional issues, especially if the feds get involved, there is a lot of resistance to a national id database among liberals and conservatives

and yes, i remember cesar chavez, i was born and raised in the pacific palisades (a suburb of la located on the coast between santa monica and malibu)

i did not make it to his funeral either, my family had moved to santa barbara before he died, he did good work organizing the farm laborers - unfortunately he is still needed

also, there are an estimated 13 million illegals in the u s of a

right now people caught crossing the border illegally are being fingerprinted and if caught again (either by la migra or local law enforcement) they are jailed and eventually deported, also if they are caught committing a crime or even arrested, their fingerprints are put in a national database - some law enforcement are collecting dna from people arrested even if they are later released as innocent (there is a case before scotus challenging the legality of that right now)

i hope all is well with you and yours, dq
Thanks, Stearns Wharf in Santa Barbara burned down, mayby 15 years ago, I used to go there a couple times a month to buy crabs at that little fish market, take out place, at the end of the pier, then go down State street and sometimes visit The Mission, cruise Hope Ranch or play golf at SandPiper in Goleta. My son played the annual junior Tennis Tournament at the Ojai
 
I'm still waiting to see how this entire plan would fit in with being a conservative. Is this the "less intrusive gov't" I keep hearing them wish for?

This proves the need for Libertarianism.
 
That is true, and if you know anything about farm laborers, they sometimes work in the fields a quarter mile from an outhouse, and they usually get payed piece work, comprende? I believe my point was that if they gotta go, they gotta go and they pee right out in the fields and they cannot wash their hands, but they just keep on picking your lettuce. mas lechuga, mas dinero. Where else do you think the Salmonalla comes from? I wash my lettuce leaves in a collander, but do you really believe that restaurants do?

There are many reasons why E-Coli can get on lettuces, anything from floods, wild animals like deer, rats or even birds. I believe that porta potties are the rule for workers so your theory of the workers pissing over the lettuces is suspect especially when it is faeces that transmits E-Coli anyway.
