Why do we need new laws when there are already laws on the books stating that hiring illegal aliens is illegal? Can't we just enforce the existing statutes?

Personally, I think the time it takes to become a citizen is way too long. I'm not saying it should be handed out at the submittal of an application, but I've known people that've finally been granted citizenship after ten years of trying! And the process isn't cheap either, believe me. Bottom line is, going about it the right way goes a little farther beyond "weeding out the people that don't really want it". We can land remote control go-carts on Mars...why can't we figure out a way to make this issue work?

And that whole "wall between Texas and Mexico" idea? If they kick the illegals out...who will build the wall? Why don't they have the illegals build the wall, and then when they're done...say "Wow, this side looks great! What's the other side look like?" and when they go around to see.......lock the gate!

Complete surrender should not just come at moments in which one faces overwhelming odds, but in the calm when it seems one is personally in complete control of one's life.
