186. I also understand why they are here, and do not support either Party's
proposed clusterfucks.

I agree the solution is to make the employers accountable and I advocate stiff fines the first time, executive jail-time and more fines the second time, and forfeiture and liquidation of all assets for the third offense.

I too sympathize with their plight, but we won the geographic lottery, they did not. There are 7 billion people on this rock and @ least 5 billion of them have lives that suck, we cannot fix that, and to try will only result in our joining them.

I am curious why you chose to ignore the following, "Of course illegal immigration is not the sole cause of many of these issues, but it certainly exacerbates them.", but suspect it was intentional.

As for the term illegal aliens, that is accurate. If you chose to take offense then it is your problem, please own it and stop trying to put it on others.
