Earned Amnesty means;
if you can enter this country illegally and work, you can stay and eventually will be given amnesty. You will have to pay a $2,000 fine and learn English, but the reward is you get to stay, work and benefits from the system. You will have 10 years to pay the fine, learn English and pay back taxes. How many of us would be given 10 years to pay back taxes? Your children will be able to receive all the benefits that any other American child receive and more if you are a low wage earner.You will be able to buy a house, car and open a business. Does not sound like you have earned anything but have been rewarded for breaking all of the U.S. immigration laws. I do not think illegals care if they are given amnesty as long as they can remain in the country and work, which is why they come here in the first place. To work and remain in this country is a reward that others do not receive because they have to wait and really starve in their county.
