I CANT belive that I agree with near everything in a non-technical post from airspirit. Man, you are very well read on this subject! *clap clap calp* I would comment more, but with the discrimination stance, and government regulation its a logical conclusion in which I can't argue.
The only comment I have is that the illegals in TX (in which I live) are some of the hardest, best workers in our labor market. They are motivated because their desire isn't to bleed the system (because frankly most don't know they can). With families here or abroad, they will do what most consider beneath them. This willingness keeps our low tech labor force costs low. ie. homebuilding, janitorial etc. Their heart is in the right place with protecting family, and most do have good moral convictions.
As for putting them in jail.. I have mixed understandings on this. I read that it takes 40k a year to jail someone. I doubt that the manual labor savings minus the over head of security would produce 40k in gains per inmate. Therefore, with the overhead of the much larger military border, I do not see how this will keep costs low. After this economic impact, the housing market and low tech job cost will rise, as the labor pool drops. The losses may not out weigh the gains. Just a thought.
Just so I'm not hijacking the thread.. m4's gooood, total ban's bad, auto-ban questionable as to benifit to populace.. dead is dead.
