DREAM Act: An Amnesty Nightmare

[Used to be broken 147]

If they are already here and working illegally I am sure their illegal employers will just be overjoyed to hear of their recent change to legal status. Then the illegal employer can begin paying payroll tax, give them benfits, cover them with workmen's comp insurance...you know, all the stuff they avoided by hiring illegals. Most of the illegals that become legals will be laid off and replaced with more illegals. They didn't hire them because Guatemalans are the best roofers in the world, contrary to popular belief.

Again, the illegal alien problem has nothing to do with temporary assylum. You want the illegals out? Then demand your congressman put a stop to the illegal employment that brings them here to begin with by severely punishing their AMERICAN employers! Illegals are just doing the best they can for their families, it is the AMERICANS that give them illegal jobs that are betraying their fellow Americans.

Ditto, in addition I think if we kick out Dream Act Students under the same principal (punishing someone else for another persons crime) we should revoke the drivers licenses of all parents of teens who get driving infractions in the first 4 years of driving.

Your analogy is somewhat faulty in this case. First of all...these so-called students are not being punished. They are being refused status and benefits that they are not entitled to. They are deportable under our law as they are in the USA illegally and are citizens of and under the jurisdiction of another country. Trying to push the guilt trip on the American people is lame at best. Trying to push the responsibility for these students/children on the USA is equally lame as these persons are citizens of another country and were not brought here by the USA or given permission by the USA to either come here in the first place or to remain here past their visa limitations.

In some cases the American parents can be held liable for the actions of their minor children. But being executed, imprisoned, or having their driving privileges arbitrarily revoked is not the generally accepted form of sanctions applied.
