But what do we do with the millions of illegals already here? I propose we make it impossible for them to find gainful work by imposing such harsh penalties upon businesses that might hire them, that no business dares hire illegals. Further, those that perpetrate the trade of illegal/fake papers should be given prison sentences just shy of the death penalty.

I wonder why our politicians don't seem to recognize the fundamental issues involved in this immigration problem.
Well I suppose if we legalized drugs they could go back to their farms and grow the stuff that many in this country crave.
