Senate Drives Stake Through Immigration

[Nickdfresh]

Exactly! Removing immigrants is like moving the entire population of a state. We could barely do that to the city of New Orleans...

And are people really happy that this issue will not be addressed until at least 2009?

WOOOO-HOOOOAH!!

BTW, I agree this bill sucked and totally catered to business interests while pissing on the backs of people that just want to work. The dirty little secret is that despite pronunciations to the contrary, most in the gov't freely look the other way and enable businesses to hire illegals because politicians are effectively bribed to do just that. And the Bush administration has all but freely admitted that illegal labor is a means to break the unions and to reduce wages further enriching the top 2%. The attempted New Deal "rollback" was all too apparent in a bill the scumbags tired to shove up the ass of the American people right after Katrina, which effectively tried to gut fair wages...

But keep blaming the Mexicans, suckers...

My feeling on this is that there is system that is set up, and when ignored it sets a precedent if acknowledged as so then you might as well allow everyone who wants in and let the whole economy collapse.

The big business man and the small business man don't wish to pay people what they should so that their profits are higher, and this has been ignored for too many years.

I'm at this point completely sick of the immigration problems. We obviously can't deport all of them, there's just not enough money for that. If something was to be done about immgration, it had to be done years ago. I don't in particular sympathize with the illegal immigrants, my parents came here legally from Canada 18 years ago and still have not been able to get citizenship, so it irritates me to see people coming here legally getting the same benefits. But I think deportation would be logistically impossible so let them pay a fine and stay in the country. Right now I think it's the best the US can do. The issue itself is sickening though, I've been hearing about it for a while now and nothing has been done, and now a major reform has been shot down. I'm hoping the next president will be able to deal with the problem a little more sensibly.
