The only reason they are "illegal" is because the govt. created their "illegality".
As I said...the easiest and most sane way is to remove the insanity of bureaucracy that the govt. created for people to become citizens in the first place.
I've been hearing about this since the 1970's. And for it to take YEARS and thousands of dollars to become a citizen is ridiculous.
If a man wants to seek opportunity...then why shouldn't he be able to? What happened to the U.S. being a beacon of hope and freedom for the world?
We are a nation of immigrants. And as I said...you and I would not be here today if our ancestors had to apply for citizenship and go through the expense and long years of waiting (after being on the waiting list for several years)

We have fallen from the beacon of hope status in the last decade and we are a nation of immigrants. My family came from two different directions. First my name sake came thru legal means at Ellis island in 1901. My grandmothers side has been here all along as native Americans.
With all the recent scare of Eboli and other illness coming from people that should have never been allowed in the country, I think the open border idea has it's flaws. Security concerns should keep the border closed to all those that pose a threat to the country like that guy that crossed the border several times and was sent back with no punishment, even though it's a felony at that point, just to kill those police officers up by Sacramento.
With threats like Isis and other Islam Jihadist. I think it only prudent to close the southern border and to say we can't is not looking at the history of this country. We can do anything! I mean we do it at JFK airport, why not the southern border?

Carbon is not the problem, it makes up 0.041% of our atmosphere , 95% of that is from Volcanos and decomposing plants and stuff. So people in the US are responsible for 13% of the carbon in the atmosphere which 95% is not from Humans, like cars and trucks and stuff and they want to spend trillions to fix it while Solar Panel plants are powered by coal plants
think about that
