106. So, is it more to your advantage to punish the poor or
to go after the conglomerates that benefit from this system?

I know lots of "aliens", lol. Believe me, shipping them home or picking their pockets won't help a bit.

The rule of law is of the utmost importance. But let's look, qui bono? Who really benefits the most from this mess? Let's focus up *there*.

The opposition has this already mapped out. They will play the race card if we stumble into this issue in a ham fisted way.

Myself, I'm a brown person and so not objective. But I see nothing but trouble for progressives if we don't think through all the stakes involved in the illegal immigration issue.
