"But we can't deport them all!"

Once again, they think you're stupid.

No one says we have to deport them all, any more than we have to catch every single criminal. But if we can arrest most the other criminals and house them in jails, we certainly have the means to arrest most the illegal immigrants and deport them. The employers who illegally hire them can pay the cost of deportation when they are charged the $10,000 fine for breaking the law. (The law currently on the book that no one observes.) Heck, it we'd still have $9,000 left over after deportation from every one sent home!

Enforcement of the current law is key to ending this problem. The truth is, we don't have to deport more than a few % to end this travesty. If we enforced the laws against those who illegally hire undocumented workers, they wouldn't get paid to break the law and would go home to their jobs in Mexico. And don't try saying they don't have jobs there, the vast majority of them do, as recent research has proven. They just come here because they get paid more.

If we take the profit out of hiring illegals, the polarity of the magnet attracting those workers will reverse, and they will go home. It's common sense. If you were in another country working an illegal job and lost it and couldn't find another, what would you do?

Of course, hopefully, you would not break another nation's laws in the first place, but even criminals have brains. They will go where they can get the most money doing the easiest amount of work. If we stop paying them to be here, they will return home.

The bottom line is this: If we can go to the moon or win a war against unseen terrorists, we can certainly enforce our borders and deport illegal aliens if we had the political will to do so. Those who say otherwise are defeatists and bold faced liars. But cutting off the funds to those who move here illegally is the easiest way to get the same result: Respect for our borders and respect for our laws.
