Solution to Illegal Immigration Problem
In my last posting I tried to respond to all the reasons and excuses given for not enforcing our immigration laws and/or for granting amnesty to the invaders. In order to avoid being seen as part of the party of “NO,” I propose the following five part plan. Three parts deal with different groups of people, a fourth with changes in the law, and a fifth with foreign policy change. I. US EMPLOYERS A. First time caught employing any illegal, the employer will be charged for the cost of returning each of his illegal employees and their immediate families back to their country of origin. B. Second offenders will be required to pay twice the amount of money to send their illegal employees and their families back to their country of origin. All this money will be earmarked to fund further deportation. C. Third and subsequent offenders will have their business assets confiscated along with paying a penalty equal to that imposed upon second offenders. II. ILLEGALS A. Given 6 months from the date of the passage of the bill to remove themselves from the US. Those who will be allowed to reapply for reentry. B. Those who are caught in the US after that 6 month period will be deported and denied reentry forever. Additionally, all their money and assets other than clothes and personal items shall be confiscated. C. Any US Citizen spouses and/or adult children of illegals shall have the right to go with the illegals to whom they related at the expense of any employer, but shall have to pay their own way if their illegal relative is deported without having been employed. They may choose to remain in the US separate from their illegal relative(s). D. The minor US Citizen children of illegal parentage must go with their illegal parent(s), if both are illegal or a legal parent chooses to go with the illegal being deported. However, if one parent is a US citizen and chooses to remain in the US, the child may remain as well with the parent. Moreover, such a child may return to the US when he/she becomes an adult only having to establish their citizenship by certified birth certificate. III. LAW ENFORCEMENT A. Given the right and duty to question and detain anyone whom they have stopped or questioned for any crime or anyone who they reasonably suspect (ethnicity or country of origin, solely, not be sufficient reason) may be in the US without proper authorization about their citizenship. If proper authorization is not provided, the suspect is to be detained until proper authorization is obtained or a hearing held to determine whether or not the suspect is properly authorized to be in the US. B. If the outcome of such hearing is that the suspect is here without proper authorization, the penalties set out in Section II will apply in addition to any penalty that may result from conviction of other crimes. IV.LAW A. Our immigration laws be made to provide, inter alia, that no one may come to this country without being able to show an ability to support themselves for the time that they are to be here and that they will not be a drain on the US economy or welfare system. All must take an oath that they will not apply for or take public assistance while in the US unless they become disabled or reach the age of retirement (for Social Security retirement only). No immigrant will be given any taxpayer assistance except in these two circumstances. B. No immigrant, temporary worker, etc (as opposed to visitors, students, etc) shall be allowed to come into this country until and unless the work for which the immigrant is suited has no US citizen who is able and willing to do this work for a reasonable wage (which is to be determined by someone other than employers and/or workers). V. FOREIGN POLICY A. Publicize that our country will take it as an act of war for any government to assist or actively encourage its citizens to enter or attempt to enter the US without going through proper procedures. B. Encourage the Mexican government to assist us in stopping this problem by providing law enforcement and military equipment and expertise and withholding same if that government refuses. C. Do what we can to help build up Mexican businesses once we get our on back on track in order to provide incentive for Mexican citizens to stay at home.
