We give out 5,000 unskilled visas per year. There is an entirely different process for skilled workers.
Clearly there is sufficient demand for far more than 5,000. Companies are not acting irrationally and hiring illegals at great risk to their coffers for no reason.
And what's wrong with people not speaking English? This country doesn't have a national language.
So what? There's no national language and as such the government is obligated to provide services for people who speak other languages.
(Btw, you're wrong about immigrant kids not learning English, the vast majority do).

I don't expect this to pass, but it is doing something - getting people's attention. if we see a piece of shit legislation like this it catches the attention of people who actually may have good ideas to work on correcting the glaring problems this bill has.
It's not like every mexican is coming across pistols blazing, these people are just trying to make a good home for themselves like the european immigrants were trying to do two hundred years ago. If we can figure out a CIVIL way to accomplish this, I feel like the country would be better off. Mexican-americans and illegals are (bitch about this as much as you want) the backbone of this country labor-wise. They do the shit nobody wants to do, or feel is beneath them. The problem is this - businesses are willing to hire someone for half the wages they would pay someone else because it's cheaper, and quite often they get harder workers. They cut costs by paying their workers less, and thusly more money goes into their pockets. It's not right, and is the root of the whole debacle. If a destitute person can come up here and find a job almost instantly, thus making himself able to feed his family or try to make something of himself, then he will try to do so. Mexico isnt the enemy, our businesses and corporations are.
I didnt realize you were personally aquainted with all 20 million illegal immigrantsjust looked at this
you are in idiot if you think Mexican illegal immigrants want to participate in our society, none of them want to be here and thats why they freely commit crime and fraud, they have no social obligation.

Its fixing mexico so they'll want to stay there.
