Thread: Can we afford "comprehensive Immigration Reform?"

Can we really afford the “Comprehensive Immigration Reformâ€

i gotta two word answer to the question posed

"HELL NO" we cant afford a damn thing in this country. we owe china too damn much money

Why do they keep calling this "Comprehensive Immigration Reform" when we all know what all of that means is NO MORE ILLEGAL IMMIGRTION LAW ENFORCEMENT! They won't enforce the laws in its strictest "form" now. Why would anyone believe if they "untighten" the law that it will be enforced then either?? Truth is, it won't be!!

Just HOLD THEM TO enforcing the laws on the books and if the Feds continue to refuse, then it's time for some dismissals, impeachements and some class action lawsuits to be filed against the Feds and any law enforcement agency that thinks it has a right to pick and choose which laws they will or will not enforce!!!!!

Harry Reid is quoted as saying that the mass deportation of 12 million illegal aliens would cost $200B

And how many billions does it cost us for them to remain here?

Then there is the problem of processing 20 million people through the same agency that gave citizenship to the SUV bomber. Yeah, that's going to work out real well.

Again, the answer is no. Robert Rector of the Heritage Foundation estimated the 2007 McCain/Kennedy amnesty bill would have imposed a net burden of at least $2.6 trillion (that's with a "T") on American taxpayers. The cost of any amnesty would likely be higher now.
