ORIGINAL: lovmuffin I'm not even willing to talk about a solution until we actually seal the southern border. That would be the first step to my version of immigration reform, as that is the first step to the solution. Maybe not my 1st step, but definitely one of the firsts. I do believe kicking up the teeth of the penalties for employers knowingly hiring illegals should be stiffer. Maybe securing the border (can't really "seal" it, and there have been people who have argued against border solutions based on someone using the phrase "seal the border") and stiffening the penalties would be co-first steps. lol Yes these things should happen at the same time. My earlier point was that before you could prove that the employer didn't take proper precautions you have to prove that they actually hired illegals. So the first step in that process is to prove they are illegal. If the government says it is ok for them to be here, even though they are illegal I don't see how you can prosecute the employer. I see your point, but he didn't EO amnesty. The President suspended deportation for a great many. That we're not deporting them doesn't make them legally here, nor does it change that they are still illegal aliens. Btw, what does any of this (and I'm not calling you out specifically, because I've added to it, too) have to do with Kansas' restrictions on EBT usage?!? lol It looks like a lot of people lost interest when it was pointed out that the whole premise behind the thread was a lie. That is what I thought. Then they demand a "reasonable" debate on immigration but dismiss anything that doesn't end in granting citizenship to illegals. They go from one bad position to another.
