Whoever criticizes capitalism, while approving immigration, whose working class is its first victim, had better shut up. Whoever criticizes immigration, while remaining silent about capitalism, should do the same.

Amnesty sucks. And will it be amnesty with conditions (I hope)? Like "we accept and forgive your illegal ass and on the condition you complete requirements to obtain citizenship within 2 years" or something similar? A dumb$#@! decision like complete unconditional amnesty will totally obliterate the already tightly-constrained funds that the states have budgeted for welfare and assistance programs for REAL CITIZENS. Not that ALL illegals are necessarily on the dole, many just want to work and want a better life......but I think the overwhelming majority of illegals will latch onto the government teat like a newborn puppy.
From where then will you get your computer scientists. aviation engineers, oil drilling experts and medical professionals?
You cannot throw out the baby with the bathwater; however rewarding those who have broken the law, jumped the cue and otherwise misbehaved is not acceptable.
If they are going to grant amnesties, how about some pay back.....like at least a share of the taxes they haven't been paying all these years....

People are getting upset and will take the law into their own hands if something is not done. If he wants that blood on his hands then I say go for it. Don't cry when innocent children are shot because he can't seem to protect the rights of American citizens.
