House passes immigration Dream Act -UPDATE-

[TAB]

C'mon the cost of allowing these folks into our financial aid packages like Pell Grants, (it's already about broke, but who cares?), is just a minor thing. Literally insignificant, like unemployment checks.

We won't use unspent "stimulus" funds to fund anything, as it's a slush fund for the unions anyway.

Harry Reid? Really? Best interest of the country? Are you serious? Look at the UK college students, our college age kids will be doing the same shortly, when their financial aid programs all go belly up.

there was a artical in the news paper  a few weeks back that said each illegal costs CA37k and change a year.  I don't know if that info is true or not, if it is, it really explains why we are broke.

My solution to the immigration issue is 3 fold...

1) If you aren't a citizen there is no public assistance no welfare, no medical and no duty to treat.  Additionally no public education.  People bring their kids here to have a better life.  If you take that away they won't come.

2) Remove the stupid, your born here you are a citizen stuff.  This will eliminate anchor children and any benefit from having a child here (see #1)

3) Make hiring a illegal a felony.  Since property can be confiscated that was used in the commission of a felony, no employer would risk their equipment simply for cheep labor.  No job, no money, no reason to come.

This has an added benefit... It would create jobs so that the 99-weeks of unemployment discussion would stop.

Folks can be here legally and not be citizens.  It might take some time from the arrival to citizenship.  During that time they will (if they are serious about becoming citizens) be working and paying taxes.  I agree that they should get no welfare, but I don't think ANYONE should be getting welfare.  Let local charities assist those who are truly needy. 

However there might be some Government funding that should be going to them.  The biggest that comes to mind is primary education for their children.  If they are really working towards becoming citizens, it would not be a good thing to let their kids fall behind when the process was under way.

I agree with education if you are here legally, hell I'll throw in medical for your kids.... if you are here legally.

There is a huge diffrence between being here legally and being here illegal.

Send them back all back when they become legal they can bring the whole damn illegal family in. No Dream act and No form of amnesty just get in the legal line like everyone else. Jail employers that hire illgals and take all the benefits they have made from the illegal labor. No Dream Act
