PBR said, "As far as immigration goes, we absolutly need to take care of the problem as soon as we can.
1. A wall is not needed. The fact is that US employers knowingly hiring illegals is the problem. The crackdown needs to start there. Without jobs, there is no reason for illegals to be here. So I think we need to audit all the registered businesses in the US and look for employment verification. If we catch illegals while at work, we deport them. Likely, they will jump ship at the news and be back in mexico long before that happens. From then on, we fine the holy hell out of employers who engage in this activity when the government does yearly verification audits. And if the employers are repeat offenders, the government force closes their business and they are never allowed to open one in the US again.
That will be the end of the immigration problem.
As John McCain said a month ago in Michigan I believe, "We can't bring back the lost jobs, but we can create new ones".
And that might be what is best. We may have to chalk up the losses to mexico and china."

FINALLY! Something we can agree on. Arizona passed a law which went into effect January 1, 2008 which basically sez, "If you hire an illegal alien and afre cought, your business license is suspended for ten (10) days. If you comit a second offense, your license is permanently revoked."
The end result of this legislation is the departure of thousands of illegal aliens either to other states or back to Mexico. And yes, AZ is enforcing that law.
You don't need a federal law to get rid of them. Just have all the states pass similar legislation and enforce it.So far, it's working for us.
