Views on illegal immigration in the US

Illegal immigration is also referred to as unauthorized or undocumented immigrants. Illegal immigration refers to the migration of people across national borders in a way that violates the immigration laws of the destined country. It is an abomination on our country, a clear and simple theivory of our jobs and tax revenue and is a royal pain in my butt.

It kills me to see how many people are in this country illegally walking the streets, getting IDs and drivers licenses and worst of all taking well needed jobs. I don't care if they are crappy low paying jobs and no one wants them. They are not their jobs to take. They do not have a right to work or live in this country PERIOD. Those jobs are not theirs to take in any way or fashion. Here is an Idea for those low paying crappy jobs why doesn't the business owner dig in that deep pocket of his and pay more for a legal immigrant or American to want the job instead of hiring some illegal so he can save a buck in wages and few more bucks in insurance and taxes. The business owners that support these illegal immigrants are just as wrong as the immigrants themselves. Not only should the immigrants have to suffer drastic consequences but the business owners should be drastically fined to make up for the taxes they have evaded (also illegal) and their business license and option to get another business license should be stripped for life. Drastic times call for drastic measures. With laws like that it would be much more complicated for business owners to think about hiring illegal immigrants which would in turn make it harder for them to find jobs and with a decade of the enforcement of those rules would undoubtedly force them back to their own country. Making crappy wages in their homeland is way better than making no money at all in America.

Let me tell you why this upsets me so drastically. I have gone through this horrid visa process to get my wonderful wife here. It is horrible and they check everything about you. Anything you thought was expunged as a child is revealed to them, criminal background checks, federal background checks, paperwork after paperwork after paperwork. Stool samples, explanation of bowel movements, size, color and frequency are turned in. Financial records and medical records have to be submitted. Family and personal documentation has to be submitted. You have to prove you can financially take care of that person and they WILL NOT BE A BURDEN ON AMERICAN GOVERNMENT. That is the most important
