Just what kind of f***ing dreamland do these people think they're living in??!

Here we go, back to the illegal worker/immigrant thing again. Boy, there is almost nothing that makes my blood boil more than this issue.

Immigrants' firing leads to protest

Notice the convenient modifier "illegal" is missing, yet again. On what planet would someone not normally be fired for missing a day of work without giving notice of sickness? On any planet, anyone would be fired for missing a day of work. Unionized workplaces, excepted. Plenty of people waiting to take their job.

It's a load of crap that illegal workers take the jobs Americans are "unwilling to do". Here's a quick list (not intensive) of what needs to be done to make Americans willing to take these jobs and get rid of the illegal immigration problem:

1. Enable employers to ask work legitimacy questions in job interviews without fear of reprisal from eager lawyers and unions charging "racial profiling".
2. Eliminate welfare as a government institution, except in cases of extreme need.
3. Severely fine employers for illegal hirings.
4. Enable use of "cheap" labor from those who are incarcerated.
5. Amend section 1 of the 14th amendment to stipulate that illegal immigrants' children are not immediately eligible for automatic citizenship.
6. Deny free public education and health care for illegal immigrants & their children (just one step closer to eliminating the Department of Education entirely). If someone needs emergency care; treat them, then deport them.

What will happen as a result?

1. People unable to find decent paying jobs due to an overabundance of cheap, illegal labor, will have a multitude of jobs to choose from, and at higher wages.
2. People on welfare are usually accustomed to being virtual wards of the government. There is no easy solution for this. Either gradual or immediate elimination of perpetual welfare.
3. Businesses are just as culpable. Think illegals will stick around long if they can't get a job in the states? I don't think so either. And if they become criminals? THEN, deport them. Easy. Most go back where they came from.
4. We should be tougher on prisoners anyways. And if they refuse? Beat the sonofabitches.
5. Don't think the founding fathers really had the foresight to think about illegal immigration when Mexico was nothing but a desert and dotted with Spanish people and Indians.
6. Poor US citizens have their own problems with getting decent education and health care to begin with. Why on earth would we not focus our efforts on our citizens before illegal immigrants, anyways?

The barrier to this? NYU lawyers, *ahem*, "civil-rights" activists (all but fronts for the Workers World and Communist parties), and misinformed simpletons. I am willing to challenge any and all of you liberal trolls with this matter, drawing from logic and personal family experiences. My entire extended family legally emigrated to this country between the 1940's and 1970's. Their jobs range from blue collar to white collar, unionized jobs to non-union. I can appreciate hard work, and I definitely recognize the hard work that a majority of immigrants put into our economy...but there is a right way and a wrong way to do things. And while Jesus would do many different things, Hillary, what the bible says regarding immigration is definitely interpretable.

This is by no means a dissertation, and I know if you're reasonable, you'll scream things like correlation doesn't imply causation, or some other shit like that. It is, right now, just a short treatise in common sense. Just like the law of nature and my electrical engineering background tell me, generally, PEOPLE TAKE THE PATH OF LEAST RESISTANCE. But change is important, and change needs to happen despite fears that people may have to revert from the status quo.
