Vendzilla...I don't think that having to go through a medical quarantine, answer some questions and pay 50 cents is the same as what our govt. forces people to do today.
I'm an American citizen...and when I drive down to Mexico I get waved on in. When I come back to the United States it's like I'm entering the Soviet Union in 1950! Searched, questioned, treated like a criminal.
And that's what happens to ME as a U.S. citizen.
You can only imagine how a Mexican citizen must see it trying to drive into San Diego.
Anyway, I digress.
I don't think it should be up to what we think as far as the amount of people who come to the U.S. to be citizens.
I'm not even sure that the U.S. allowing "lawful immigrant status to more than 1.1 million aliens" is even applicable to this discussion.
"lawful immigrant aliens" aren't the same as becoming a U.S. citizen is it?
Is that what your family wanted to be when they came here through Ellis Island?
"Hey, let's travel from Europe with nothing but the clothes on our back looking for a better life and become...lawful immigrant aliens"
See what I'm saying? Bureaucracy is out of control in our govt.
They create these problems and then spend years "fixing" them when the answer is ludicrously simple: Stop making it so hard for people to come to the United States.
