So under Rubio's plan they have to jump through all those hoops just for the privilege of existing at a certain latitude and longitude without getting deported, while under the status quo they can stay here without doing any of those things. How is that amnesty?

Enforce the Rule of Law. And until we get "OUR" libertarian ideas propagated the world over the borders should remain closed to folks not meeting pre-1965 immigration standards.

We could find a primary challenger for Rand if he does run for senate again depending.

I support amnesty for all but those with violent crimes pending. I do wish people in the liberty movement would consistently support liberty.

Cut every welfare program in their reach(first) but don't tell people their existence here is illegal; especially anyone who has a job. Very few of you are hoping your kids grow up to be vegetable pickers, tire changers, or house roofers. Very few.

Why? What's wrong with working? Many who start in jobs such as these start their own business. Is that the reason you support amnesty? So you don't have to get your hands dirty?

Have somebody in mind?

That's what I think as well. The kind of penalties that are contained in Rubio's plan seem a lot harsher for illegal immigrants than allowing them to stay here and work without getting deported.

This is an example of why I've called this member a troll.

I see yet another one in need of being boiled in oil.

BROADENING THE TAX BASE is code for AMNESTY FOR ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS.

Reagan's Amnesty was sold as ONE TIME ONLY. ABOGADOS prospered. Wages languished.

I'd rather have a MORATORIUM on Immigration until we are not operating in a STATE OF EMERGENCY, which includes ending the War On Terror, than spring for another round of some-criminals-are-more-equal-than-other-criminals (favoring Hispanics AGAIN)...rather than swell the ranks of "The Entitled" FOR VOTES.

I don't like any of this .. and one of the most annoying things is *understand SOME English* as opposed to LEARN THE LANGUAGE damn it.

I endorse the strategy of attacking from the right.

I might very support Rand for president if Ron is not running.

But if there is a candidate who will run against Rand in Kentucky because of this issue depending on what exactly Rand the opponent does, then I would also support that primary challenge as well

So you want the federal government dictating to us what American English is supposed to be, like France does with its language?

What if ending sentences with prepositions were something up with which they would not put?
