Never fear, a satisfying, comprehensive solution is within reach: the Megamerge Dissolution Solution. Simply dissolve the border along with the failed Mexican government, and megamerge the two countries under U.S. law, with mass free 2-way migration eventually equalizing the development and opportunities permanently, with justice and without racism, and without threatening U.S. sovereignty or basic principles.

These amendments attempt to enforce immigration laws without getting to the heart of the issue. Building a bigger wall at the U.S.-Mexico border is going to spend millions of taxpayer dollars but will not solve anything; reforming our immigration system will.

Forcing Federal contractors to implement a costly and inaccurate employment verification program isn’t going to solve anything. Instead, a mandatory E-Verify clause would force cash-strapped small businesses to make the painful decisions between losing government contracts and spending millions of dollars on a flawed and expensive employment verification system.

Meanwhile, look what happened to entire communities and local economies in places like Postville, IA. The overzealous enforcement by immigration authorities, much of it determined to be unconstitutional by the Supreme Court by the way, resulted in removing hundreds of immigrant workers from the meatpacking plant. The company struggled to fill those jobs for over a year, even though the jobs paid more than minimum wage. The company went bankrupt, all the workers lost their jobs, immigrants and US citizens alike, and the whole town is going under. The enforcement of bad laws have hurt all the suppliers, truckers, mechanics, restaurants, local farmers and ranchers, and everyone else who relied on the interconnected, interdependant network of commerce that makes up a local economy.

Visit with the families that used to run the local diner, the local pizzeria, the local gas station, the hardware store. See what they think “enforcing current immigration laws,” did to their town, their livelihoods, their futures.

Political posturing by Congress appealing to the worst instincts of cynicism and fearmongering leads to bad public policy that hurts us all.

We need smart, practical, enlightened public policy making that takes a balanced approach to overhaul the current wreck of an immigration system.

With unemployment so high, what ha

Either way, there’s an undeniable steep learning curve for conservative lawmakers who are slow to realize that they can no longer rely on an enforcement-only approach to immigration when the majority of their frustrated constituents want immigration laws overhauled inside and out. E-verify, no-match letters, and 700 miles of border fencing aren’t going to fix the immigration system. If anything, they further emphasize how broken it is.

Yep, he spams my blogs all the time with the same exact screed. Moderators on this blog should beware.

I don’t think that its just the Republicans who are the problem, Kyle. Its all the members of Congress who are caving into the pressure to “look tough” on immigration and in the mean time pouring more taxpayer money into ridiculous measures like a “fence to nowhere” and a fatally flawed employment verification system. Enough with the political posturing, people. Let’s roll up our sleeves and create some real, substantive change: comprehensive immigration reform.

Well put, rachel. Totally agree.

Giving 13 to 20 million plus families who rely heavily on government benefits will bankrupt America, according to the estimate of 2.5 Trillion dollars, Robert Rector at the Heritage Foundation. Then their is the next tsunami of poor people expecting to benefit from a further Amnesty, waiting patiently in other impoverished societies around the earth.
