So are many US citizens. They're called migrant farmworkers. Many of
them tend to take offense when people like don't distinguish between US
citizens who do that kind of work and illegals who take jobs and/or
reduce the wages available for their work.

The bracero program required paperwork, much like the resident alien
("green card") program does today. You still have no ****ing clue what
you're talking about.

Bullshit. It was a stop-gap measure which ended in 1963. You'd know that

Ipse dixit. If we *need* immigrants, we can control the numbers that
come in through current immigration law. Most people are open to that.
What's NOT tolerable, especially for us in border states, is allowing
people in who don't or won't work.

Strawman argument, asshole. Even during the bracero program, those who
came here without documentation were deported. Prior to the 1986
Immigration Act, people without documentation were rounded up and
deported. People are still rounded up and deported. The number of
illegal immigrants is far in excess of what INS and the Border Patrol
can handle. Meanwhile, the Court has ruled that those who are born here
are citizens so their parents can stay. This has led many expectant
mothers to rush across the border as they go into labor; once the child
is born here, they can go on assistance, and maybe someday find a job;
they can also send for other family members, who appear on our soil
without jobs and with open hands. We have to educate their children even
if they're here illegally, and we have to provide medical care. That has
nothing to do with "looking the other way." We tried to do that before
the Court intervened (and once again, you clueless, stupid ****, their
decision had NOTHING to do with amnesty or looking the other way or
necessity).

What made them sick at Chi-Chi's? (Which isn't a Mexican restaurant in
any real sense of the word: their food is at best Tex-Mex, and their
headquarters are in Ohio.)
> They don't know if it was the onions.
Tell that to the CDC, asswipe.
BEAVER, Pa. (AP) - A hepatitis A outbreak that has killed three
people and sickened nearly 600 others who ate at a Chi-Chi's
Mexican restaurant was probably caused by green onions from
Mexico, health officials said Friday. But how the scallions
became tainted remains unclear.
All the hepatitis A cases at the restaurant 25 miles northwest
of Pittsburgh have been linked to green onions, and most of the
victims likely contracted it through mild salsa and cheese dip,
the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said. The two
dishes both used raw or lightly cooked onions.

Ipse dixit. Nobody's killed an Affirmative Action program. Such programs
also don't work as intended, and oftentimes are detrimental. For
example, the child of an upper-class black or Hispanic surgeon doesn't
need more 'assistance' in education or employment opportunities than the
child of a middle- or lower-class white (or Asian) laborer. Yet that's
how the current system works. It's a purely race-based system, which is
at odds with the Constitution.

The two issues aren't mutually exclusive. The INS could conceivably go
into schools and try to ascertain who's there legally or illegally and
catch illegal parents through their children rather than the other way
around. But yes, we have deported children and their parents.

It's not the intent of LAW -- which is a function of the democratic

They already can and do vote here. They also vote in Mexican elections.

No, the will of the people was violated by the Supreme Court. That's

Why? They have more to lose than anyone else if we enforce our
immigration (and fraud) laws. We should reward caseworkers for turning
in illegal aliens. Out of the 20% of inflated cost due to illegals we'd
save, offer half of it to workers as a reward. That would cause the
illegals to reconsider going on the dole in the first place, and we
could deport them in the second.

INS/USCIS is still the agency involved in enforcing immigration law, not
the main Department of Homeland Security.

They're not in law enforcement, they're in medicine. They could contact

Again, a matter of their turf. They'd lose a lot of revenue if illegal
aliens and their children were deported.

They occasionally do (not DHS, but the actual agency charged with
enforcing immigration laws), especially if someone is accused of a crime

This is irrelevant. Keep sending them back.

They're still liable under IRCA of 1982. The penalties to employers are

Yes, they are.

Let's see if you remember who Kimba Wood was. No, not a Republican
appointee. Let's see if you can name the other Clinton appointees who
were later discovered to have hired illegals and in at least two cases
have to apologetically decline them. Oh yeah, you're stupid. Let me help
you.
Zoe Baird. Ron Brown. Frederico Peña. Supreme Court Justice Stephen
Breyer. Joycelyn Elders didn't hire an illegal, but she paid her help
off the books. Gosh, by that standard you'd have to include Bill and
Hillary: they listed Chelsea's nanny, a woman named Dessie Sanders, as a
"security guard" at the Arkansas governor's mansion because the state
didn't provide child care.
Wanna play a counting game? Besides Linda Chavez and Christie Whitman,
how many Bush nominees had illegal staff? Well shit, there goes another

The 1940s were a long time ago. The bracero program only came about
because of US involvement in WWII. There was a serious shortage of
labor. The bracero program was abandoned by the early 1960s. It was
replaced by illegal immigration. A bracero didn't become a US citizen;
he was still a Mexican citizen.

Braceros went home. They didn't receive amnesty, nor did they become US
citizens. *Some* may have, but that was much more an exception than the
rule.
> The program worked well but they never went back home after many
years here.
Read the above link from the Farm Workers' site, pendejo. Not even they
agree with you:
With the crossing of 526 braceros through the Santa Fe Street
Bridge Tuesday night, current contracting of Mexican laborers
for work in U.S. farms ended, official of the National Railways
of Mexico reported Wednesday. The railroad in charge of
transporting the braceros to Juárez from all parts of the state,
disclosed the total number of workers contracted amounted to
12,127. Of this number, only a few were sent back after failing
to pass their physical examination at the Bracero Center.
(The El Paso Times, May 30, 1963)
Since you accused *me* of all people of slavery, please also note on
that webpage that the officer in charge of the bracero program for the
US Labor Department called it legalized slavery. This is your idea of a
good thing?
> That's when the amnessty program started for the illegals
Ipse dixit. That's in contrast to the information from the Farm Workers'
site and from all of recorded history.

Who said he did?
> There have been many presidents before him

Name one other president who's signed such a law granting amnesty to
illegal aliens.
> The legal system and all the social services have conformed to that fact
Bullshit. The legal system has forced social services to conform on
specious "equality" grounds (NOT on economic grounds), but social
service programs and school districts *cannot* keep up with the demands
placed upon them by such rulings. One of the links I gave you was to an
eight year-old article about the strains on Medicaid and AFDC due to
illegal immigration. Back in 1995, one in every five recipients was here
illegally. That means, if common sense were to prevail, we could save
20% of what we pay on such services if we stopped paying people who
break our immigration laws. Add to that compulsory education for
children who should be at home in Mexico, which affects 100% of illegal
children -- not just the ones whose parents receive assistance. State
governments, especially along the border, are overwhelmed. The burden on
citizens and legal residents is tremendous. That's not conformity, it's
slavery. It's also not doing what you initially claimed with respect to
Social Security. If illegals are allowed to pay into and receive such
benefits, it will surely fail sooner than later.
¿Comprende o no todavia?
> that the illegal will in time become legal and not deported.
Ipse dixit. Again, I remind you of the title of the act President Reagan
signed into law. It was the Immigration *Reform* and *Control* Act of
1986. The Congress *promised* that amnesty would be a one-time shot and
then the immigration laws would be vigorously enforced. The Democrats
got their amnesty, but their control has been limited to the requirement
that employers hire only U.S. citizens, Nationals of the United States,
or Aliens who are authorized to work in the United States and to verify
the employment eligibility of every employee hired after November 6,
1986. According to YOU, employers needn't follow that law.

He was, and remains, a member of a very large and influential union. He

> sprinkle down economics.
You don't understand economics, so explaining Dr Laffer's curve to you
is probably pointless. What I will say (that you may comprehend) is you,
too, believe in "trickle down" -- it's just that you think government is
more efficient than the private sector. You want more immigration to
stuff more revenues into bankrupt entitlement programs that are
inherently un-fixable. At least our experiences with JFK, Reagan, and
Bush-43 prove that decreasing tax rates have macroeconomic benefits
which lead to microeconomic improvement.
> To say he was proUnion is stupid.
Then why did he serve as president of one for six years, including FIVE
CONSECUTIVE TERMS? He was president of SAG during from 1947-1952, and
again in 1959-1960. He had the support of many unions including the
Teamsters, and many individuals in unions that didn't endorse him, in
1980 and 1984.
