All of us routinely show our ID's, bank card's AARP cards,immunization recors, frequent flyer cards etc as part of normal life. To get a resident discount at the pool, you prove you live local.

How much do you think your plan will cost? Let's see: police, immigration employees, judges, juries, buses to the border. Plus the cost of building a 1000-mile long wall. And although I'm not in favor of illegal immigration, they are cheap labor that keeps our farm, food, construction, and other service costs down. So we can add those higher prices to the cost of your plan.

BajaRat, your simplistic “plan” is no plan at all — totally unworkable.

Can you now put your right-wing rhetoric aside and try to use your brains and energy to make realistic suggestions?

If there are no jobs for them they would have no reason to be here. And as a CEO or owner, you had BETTER know what is going on with your business. Make the owners take the heat, not some low level employee that will just be replace.
