Against, for the most part. The people who contribute here and now have a relatively easy time getting in. The people who want to make a better life for themselves have a harder time because A.) there are many, many more of them and B.) they cannot contribute as much or as soon. I think a guest worker program is reasonable, because if there are jobs available then obviously someone is more than welcome to fill that job. But deportation (of those people we already know are not working) is a joke, currently.

I forget which politician was recently touting the idea, but I think doing away with the anchor baby law would go a long way towards solving the problem.

So do you think that the change made to the law should be that if an illegal immigrant has a child we should deport the whole family, child included, meaning the parent must be a citizen in order to gain citizenship? Or do you think we should deport the parents and put the kids up for adoption?

Anchor baby law? You must mean the Fourteenth Amendment.
