18. Immigration only has one of three possibilities...............

We can of course continue with the porous border and non-enforcement policies we practice now. That would be real smart.:sarcasm: This policy puts ever increasing strains on state, city, and local services that are already strained to the breaking point.:wtf:

........OR...........

We can adopt the "Nothing In Life Comes Free" policy. We start by closing down our borders and ENFORCING that closed border policy - NOT TO KEEP EVERYONE OUT - but simply to limit those coming in FOR OUR OWN GOOD. A guest worker program, where an illegal alien earns their citizenship over a period of time would be one approach. We currently have the technology to track illegal aliens, we just aren't using it.

.....or.......

We can shut down our borders, enforce that closed border policy with an iron fist and put an end to the entire problem.

PERSONALLY, I favor # 2. Ok, flame away everyone.
