The thousands–illegals?–who have demonstrated past few days: demand “dignity” –and citizenship(?) for 9 -10 -11 -13 million? –How many have entered the country illegally? If you know how many illegals: please tell the rest of us, we’re clueless, government doesn't 'do' illegals. So what now? Bigger ‘better’ fence? Hilarious –when they build tunnels.
Congress has muddied the issues on illegals and on proposed resolutions. If you were ‘ruler of the universe’ what would you decide about illegals?
Real Remedy: Stop the Source. President of Mexico LOVES the dollars that pour in, he doesn't have to do a thing to make his country better: All the rewards, benefits, no consequences; no new jobs; no new fair tax laws; no crack-down on corrupt law enforcement. He loves the dollars so much: his sole 'contribution' to produce instruction pamphlet -how to illegally cross "safely."
Canada and US leaders MUST demand Mexico step UP; improve country for Mexican citizens so they will have no need to leave to get a better life.
Canada, US and Mexico:
-MUST negotiate Real terms (of NAFTA?) so that all three strengthened
-Mexican income tax structure: cut;
-Raise standard of living;
-Improve intra-trade;
-Penalize predatory corporations i.e., corporations may not do any negative impact that they can’t/won’t allowed do in US & Canada such as dump toxins in waterways, abuse employees, hire children, etc.
-Repair, restore infrastructure
Meanwhile: The thief who stole $68 (–$70? ) million belonging to American Indians and stole unknown millions from Americans’ US Treasury, in collusion with elected members of Congress, gets “justice” of puny six year sentence, while any ordinary robber who steals a few thousand from an insured bank gets twice that sentence –more if he’s black. If the ‘justice’ system can make distinctions, then supposing we, American citizens, make distinction of those who are here illegally.
To illegals: Suppose granted US citizenship, you're twenty-something illegals and say, in ten –fifteen years, will be late 30s -early 40s, earning say $15. to $35. dollars an hour and then ten million new people enter the country illegally, from, say some destitute Asian or African country. –Willing to work ‘cheap’ –depress wages and flood so many areas they bankrupt communities. What would you current illegals say, do? –Would you current illegals be willing to have wages slashed, back to $7. to $12.? –Learn another language –pay increased taxes to support services, schools for the new illegals? –Amnesty –enforcement of laws on the new illegals? –Demand all of us absorb them? When repeated again ten years later, you're at retirement age, then what? Want to have your income go not for your pension but into higher taxes to support those illegals? Where does it end?
Real remedies? Ignore emotion, politics, angry protests, demands and consider:
-English declared language of US; no other language by police, vote-related, 911 or public schools (non-English speaking students: three-month intense English class before enrollment).
-Enact legislation that makes distinction: elderly, agriculture, general, criminal.
-Any/All who entered the US between January 1, 1985 to December 31, 2005 and is not now a citizen: must register
-Anyone born in US of non-citizen during that period: No automatic citizenship –same as European laws; all considered illegal/ citizenship or deportation, but NOT a legal citizen because of birth while in the US
Seniors:
-Above age 66, without charge of criminal record, abuse or fraud: deemed neutral
-Allowed to remain if: proof of financial independence (pension, Social Security, savings, other form of financial income) and proof of Catastrophic Medical insurance, presented annually
-Exemption from financial requirement if: sole care-taker to minor child
General:
-If proof of consistent employment: allowed to stay, may apply for citizenship(–seasonal, free-lance, independent contractor employment accepted case-by-case)
Agricultural crop/farm-related:
-Farm owner not using pesticide, herbicide, toxins of any type on the property: allowed into a unique program
-Must write a unique letter, notarized; sent directly to a federal dept., every twelve months, affriming 'Mr./Ms. X employed, working on agricultural-related farm' (no risk of falsification, worker never has control or sees)
-Must enter monies into self-insured like pool: cost of catastrophic illness for each worker;
-Share / split with worker: cost of preventative health methods, contracted with local hospital, clinic and local physician; annual check-up
-Housing: each worker to have shelter that can withstand wind, water, rain, cold; cost: shared by parties, case-by-case, with new construction to allow for owner/ farmer to add additional amount to recoup cost, in addition to any mortgage
Ag Worker:
-Mr./Ms. X enrolled in unique status for such work
-Allowed to apply for Driver’s License, renewable annually upon verification of reference letter and on-sight visit by state DMV;
-Exempt: from state, federal income tax
-After five years: allowed to enter front of citizenship line, provided continuously employed in farm work; not been accused of any felony, nor responsible
for any child accused of a felony; conviction of either of a felony: worker forfeits tax-exempt status, looses driver license and gets citizenship application clock ‘re-set’ to back of the line or deported, along with parents, spouse and children
Criminal, Gang member:
-Parent(s), spouse and any children of such: –all deported upon verification and/or sixty days after any arrest
-Confirmation via: conviction; criminal record, lack of employment record, tattoo insignia, video tape, testimonials, police in-put, other means; same for anyone on parole
-While citizenship pending: all must pay an annual fee, non-refundable, to cover cost of application

Illegal Immigration --Bigot?
Immigrants… illegal immigrants… illegal Hispanic workers. Congress –after swiping rights, invasion nightmare, opening nation’s parks for pals, shutting court suits for other pals, handing Treasury to “contractors” and drug makers; ‘leadership’ –lobbyist, travel, gifts -spy -CIA -FBI scandals; New Orleans incompetence, FEMA failures, Medi-Care failures; failure to secure ports, airports or balanced budget and “terrorism” not ‘working’ for them any more; watching their image and poll numbers crashing –is now working on a bill –dealing with illegal migrants. They hope it will shore up campaign contributions, quell roused angry Americans, get majority Party members re-elected. Most of the people entering the US illegally come from Mexico. –If you support immigration restriction –does that mean you are biased against Mexicans? A bigot?
Right now: we don’t have real Clue One –why administration invaded Iraq, the mission, the goal –why Iraqis don’t have water, electricity or security –why Iraqis and Americans are dying –what the hell we’re doing there. –We can’t do squat about Iraq, for now, so for ‘relief’: we crab about ‘illegals’ –those pouring over the border, buying our cast-off cars, getting fake ID, using our services, going to our schools, hospitals….
We used to call them: “illegal aliens” –European or wealthy: “émigré” –a slew of unprintable versions, those who came to America. People from Mexico, Central America say: “undocumented” workers –making distinction ‘with’ or without proper entrance documents, shifting focus from the person to the ‘paper.’ But once: those who wanted to enter the US had to get in line, ‘quota’ line –just so many allowed from each country; had to wait for their number to come up to enter and apply for US citizenship. Some waited decades –unless a great ballet dancer –singer –famous writer –had tons of money –or rowed over from Cuba. –Those got at the ‘front’ of the line; numerous administrations enjoyed ‘lifting velvet rope’ on Cubans, especially if they were joining family in Florida, to annoy Castro, supposedly, and to: add to Republican Party voter rolls.
Then Congress, in its infinite wooden-headedness, eliminated quotas –threw the doors wide open –unless an entrant had infectious disease or Serious crime rap sheet, any body /every body allowed. So –Vietnamese, Iranians, Filipinos, Pakistanis, Guatemalans, Samoans –everybody from everywhere showed up.
But some crossed into the country with ‘help’ from paid ‘coyotes’ –paid to smuggle humans, which is a crime, so prosecuting those that are caught –makes you a ‘law & order’ righteous kind of person? Or –because they come from Mexico, prejudiced? –Or “post 9-11” kind of person as Karl, the wonder-genius aide to Occupant, is trying to frame it – not a bigot, but “concerned” about terrorists?
If you want Congress to ‘get serious’ about ‘porous’ border, do Serious things about illegals –if you support those ‘free-lancers’ standing along US – Mexico border, with binoculars and shotguns watching people cross the border –are you a bigot? What is solution for illegal immigration? People in Congress, trying to make everyone ‘happy’ never say the hard truths:
-Americans have a right and a need to know –who is in the country
‘Counted Noses’–long before “illegals” pushed Iraq war off front pages–every ten years, for good reasons. Founding Father authors thought it was important, so important they wrote ‘take head count’ into the Constitution.
-Big and Small Biz thrilled: Central, South Americans work cheap –cheaper than Americans. Big Biz: big donors to re-election campaigns
-Americans –Don’t want to clean up messes, do “add fries with that?” –wash the dishes, lift the bales, bend at the waist 8 -10 hours a day, in hot sun, for Minimum Wage
-How many –named to high-profile position, had to decline -resign because of employing an illegal immigrant?
-Every person in the US –here because once upon a time: a relative was an immigrant. –Everybody came here from somewhere else, including ‘native’ Indians
-‘Illegals’ pay into the system –Social Security—from which they will not benefit, won’t collect –yet supporting today’s pensioners
-No group –legal or illegal, has a Right to force majority to speak their language –provide materials, teachers, police that speak any language other than English
-No group has Right –to force a community to uniquely accommodate a specific group –use Eminent Domain to take historical properties or homeowners’ property to build schools to accommodate them in situ
-No business has a Right to abuse employees –legal or illegal residents; force them to accept dangerous work conditions, less than market rate wage, toxins, toxic workplace
-Without new people who came before: we could not have built the country into prosperous democratic thriving entity it is now.
People from Mexico, Guatemala, Columbia, Honduras –come here for the same reasons your relatives came. But –how do they live –how is it possible to earn Minimum Wage and live in such a wealthy country? Young men live together –four, five, even seven or more live in basements, garages, trailers, one bedroom apartments. Not uncommon: two families to share an apartment, mattresses lined up in every room. ‘How can people live that way’ –you’re saying? Why are you asking –that is exactly how most Americans’ relatives lived between 1840 and 1926. Your great grandparents –and their children, worked 16 -18-hour days, in conditions we consider utterly unacceptable today, until they acquired enough skills and money to rise out of slums –mines –pits –sweatshops. –While facing rampant bigotry of “No Irish Need Apply” and ‘No Jews –No Italians –No Poles Wanted Here’ signs. People who were black didn’t need to read anything to know the rules.
So what is Mexican family life like? ‘Stranger’ moves into the neighborhood –the block –the building, Everyone is included: invited; grandparents and little children celebrate together, with the teens and the parents. Mothers, who aren’t sitting in their child’s classroom all day, wait outside the gate and walk their children home from school. Few things are more important to Hispanic parents than: education. Using crystal meth? White suburban -urban youth –Hispanics don’t use drugs. No child who gets pregnant –left behind, tossed out or shunned; abortion: unacceptable, to nearly all Hispanics. –Really, really need to squeeze into next lane –pull out of an alley? The driver who just let you cut in line –most likely Hispanic. Break down at an intersection –got a flat tire? Hispanics will pull over, jump out and help you. They know what it is to be stranded –help each other and everyone else.
-Taking Welfare? Nearly every state: proof of citizenship required before even accepting application. California, other states, fingerprint recipients, match & cross-check for fraud. To get Welfare benefits: applicant must enroll in Jobs Prep class; show up late, miss a class: loose Welfare. Don't get a job by class end: must repeat the class until job found. Yup, case workers know when they are looking at fake Social Security cards, documents. Many states have copied California’s requirement: notarized Birth Certificate required to apply for Driver’s License.
But Americans object to illegals getting free medical ER services? Documented studies: those who use ER for health care –Hispanics equal only 20%. –Largest group using hospital ER services? White middle -working class –who don’t have medical insurance –or a primary care physician, so they go to ER sicker, costing far more to treat acute illness rather than preventative medicine.
So: if you don’t want people with those family values pouring into the country –does that make you a bigot? Maybe –or maybe: you had help becoming a “bigot.”
When Iranians, after Shah was exiled, rocketed out of Iran and, estimated 500,000 to 750,000, arrived in US all at same time –shop signs in Farsi –voter pamphlets in Arabic characters? On arriving in this country –your Italian –Polish –Greek –Swedish relatives demanded –police, firefighters, voting materials, signs –in their native language? Nope, Nope –and Nope.
Hispanics are the sole ethnic group to come to this country and demand that we, Americans, accommodate them. In this country, famously, anybody can sue anybody for anything, but core issue Congress members and community leaders don’t talk about: Hispanic community leaders went into court and convinced a foolish, stupid stupid judge to make a stupid stupid ruling. Decision: If an ethnic group constitutes 10% of US population a judge “deemed” it correct –entitled to have voter registration, police –government –teachers –all parts of American society –accommodate them –in native language –Spanish. No other ethnic group in US history demanded that the majority accommodate, conform to a minority’s language.
When materials began appearing in Spanish: Thai immigrants said ‘Hey, we want voter materials in our native language –print or we will sue –for discrimination.’ Chinese, Filipino, Korean, Japanese, India –nearly every ethnic group, also demanded. Communities had no choice –acquiesce –to groups that threatened suit –or face bankruptcy.
Americans, across all lines, share two traits: we believe in fairness and we root for the underdog. We delight in the international visitor who attempts to speak English while visiting. We don’t see fairness, not amused at seeing rows of shops with unintelligible signs.
But now: English signs, 911, voter pamphlets, police –followed by Spanish? Followed by: seven+ languages. What does that do to a society –that can not speak in one language? Is it bigotry –not wanting people to walk over the border, or is it unspoken resentment –that after arriving here, Hispanics demanded we accommodate them –thereby fracturing our culture? If seven accommodated –isn’t that bias, bigotry against the French, Greek, Italian, Serb, Russian et al immigrants –not also included?
Some of the finest advice ever heard came out of art school: to come up with a solution first take it to an extreme, then come back to reality in increments. Take Hispanic language issue to extreme: every ethnic group demands their language be accommodated –ten –twenty –one hundred thirty-seven languages spoken, written here: There will be no more here here. We will not have a shared history, community –police department –ability to speak to each other without translators, messengers trying to keep the peace.
Enter the country illegally and work without proper documents –solution? –Really want one? Sure? You sure can use your power –Demand Congress build a bigger fence –no more over the border. –Penalize employers of illegal workers. But: will that resolve? What is the goal? Break it down. Hispanics risk much to come to this country –because there is no work at home.
–So Remedy?
Native Mexicans survive –on empty calories. If manufacturers were Forced to add nutrients –$.02 worth, to every batch of tortilla –Mexicans would thrive, grow up healthy, strong –prosper –able to think –solve their country’s problems? Now: they refuse to add, fearful competition will not add, get priced out by desperately poor who won’t, can’t pay if cheaper tortilla is available.
So, bleeding-heart –right-winger –middle American, if your goal is to stop border hemorrhage: get ready. Start practicing –bend over, pick up your own berries, vegetables. –Wash your own car, tend the lawn, the weeds, the tree-tops; change your own sheets, vacuum the floors, build the new house, patio yourself –or expect to pay market rate. Hotel? –Separate charge for room-clean –every part, with separate charge? How many times will you be eating in restaurants –when the bill goes double, triple? –There isn’t a professional kitchen in the US without Hispanics –at the stove, dishwasher, prep table. Who will make up missing difference in Social Security pool?
Person occupying Oval Office gets it. He got Congress to make a special law –just for New Orleans: Minimum Wage rolled back –for pals doing reconstruction. But that’s just “temporary” –right? If your salary rolled back –you’d be OK with that? Consequences…Republicans….
The obvious is obviously wrong. You can’t have it both ways. Maybe instead of a canon to kill a flea, We declare, make law:
-Language of the US: “English”
-Follow Europe: child born in the country of non-citizen, Also NOT a citizen; roll back –those born of non-citizen parents in past sixteen years –not US citizen; require all to apply for citizenship
-Enable immigration for temporary jobs –temporary stay, temporary Driver’s License
–No child allowed to graduate grade school until read, write fluently
-No worker hired permanently: unless English-fluent
-Government employees –speak one language only
-Top-most shop sign –English
-Voter materials, firefighters, 911, police, teachers –one language only –English
-Enable people to do the jobs existing workers don’t want to do; allow temporary workers to go home, return
-No English: no vote, no job, no parole, no graduation. –If Greeks could do it, so can everyone else.
-Everyone already here: Must be a citizen or must file application to become citizen –show proof of application or leave. Demand Administration: immediately begin working with Central American countries to strengthen those economies.
Then get ready to do your own work –or: get ready to pay market rate.
–You want the service –clothing sewn, roof repaired, sheets changed, sod laid, cars assembled, coal mined, houses built –and you’re prepared to pay market rate: Congress should be helping you. You want the skills, the service –but pay ‘illegals’ rate? –Take less because they are here ‘illegally’? Americans’ wrath should be directed at you, the cheat, the thief –the bigot. –You don’t live on $10,000. a year, why should anyone else? Pandering…grandstanding Congress…consequences….
