    Florida Shouldn’t Make Arizona’s Mistake

    It won't solve the problem because it doesn't eliminate jobs and free stuff for illegal aliens. Stop that and the problems are solved. Solve that problem and we'll see a return to prosperity in the manner of free enterprise.

    Anti-Immigrant Bills Will Be Bad for the State’s Economy

    Ann Garcia, Sam Chatto | April 27, 2011

    Roughly a year after passage of Arizona’s harsh anti-immigrant legislation, S.B. 1070, the Florida state legislature is considering two similar bills. These bills pose a severe economic threat to the state. If passed, they will undoubtedly blight the state’s image, hurt businesses, and alienate the state’s legal immigrant population—all without solving the problem of undocumented immigration.

    In the Florida House of Representatives, H.B. 7089, sponsored by Rep. William Snyder (R-Stuart), makes it a crime to be a foreign national without papers. The proposed bill also allows state law enforcement to check the immigration status of any individual if there is “reasonable suspicionâ€

    The wheels of tourism could stop turning

    Don't know about you, but who can afford vacations anymore?

    This popular destination for Central and South Americans would inevitably become less appealing as the state would gain a reputation for being unwelcoming to immigrants and especially to Latinos.
    Bullcrap, visitors from latino countries could care less about illegal aliens. These tourists will have their papers, no skin off their noses. They sure as hell don't come see illegals picking tomatoes.

    Florida businesses stand to lose greatly

    It's the economy stupid.

    Reggie Brown, executive vice president of the Florida Tomato Growers Exchange, said a state immigration law "would basically eliminate the tomato industry from the state. … in agriculture we are totally dependent upon a hand process with no opportunity in the foreseeable future to do anything different."
    Hey Reggie, they got machines that pick tomatoes now. The machines don't need to be educated, housed and suck on the public teat.

    Fewer immigrants mean less tax revenue for Florida

    Now THAT'S funny!
    How many billions do illegal aliens and their anchors suck from our tax $$$? Schools, hospitals, WIC, food stamps, jails, housing, uninsured..and the list goes on and on and on...

    Experience tells us the legal defense fees would be steep WOn't be steeper than illegals getting social benefits they don't pay into, eh? You're gonna run out of $$$ sometime bringing all these lawsuits, won't ya?

    Florida legislators must instead support a better way forward
    Yea, it's called ENFORCEMENT AND DEPORTATION!!
