Post ARTICLE: What if 20 million illegals vacated the United States of America?

http://www.newswithviews.com/Wooldridge/frosty306.htm

"They (illegal aliens) pay rent, buy groceries, buy clothes...what happens to your country's economy if 20 million people go away?"

That's a good question – it deserves an answer. Over 80 percent of Americans demand secured borders and illegal migration stopped. But what would happen if all 20 million or more vacated America? The answers may surprise you!

honestly, what would a person like you advocate, Trail of Tears-ing them back to Mexico?...

the forced removal and transfer of that many human beings from our country would lead to a logistical nightmare and a humanitarian disaster on a scale you don't seem able or willing to imagine...

One of the most biased article ever read with nothing to back it up..

OTOH who would pick the grapes and apples
who would clean the hotel rooms
who would work at the fast food chains
who would clean up NOLA
who would mow the lawns.

Say what you will, but illegal immigration will continue as long as there is a market for cheap labor and the US is addicted to cheap labor.

What if 20 million illegals vacated the United States of America?

What did we do before they were here?

If they left the market would adjust and life would go on.

That's a stupid article. It's simply a political diatribe that doesn't seriously analyze the economic consequences of losing tens of thousands of people. All of those people buy stuff and they just buy from each other. Our housing crisis would worsen, tens of thousands of jobs would be eliminated, manufacturers would have to cutback their factories, there would be massive layoffs in government, etc. If all the illegal immigrants left, the rice of labor and goods would go up and create inflation. The oversupply of housing would reduce housing costs dramatically and either areas would become desolate or become filled by other poor people. If we ever wanted to get rid of illegals, I think it would have to phased in over a fairly long period.

The only sensible solution is to secure the border for real and wait for the illegals to die of old age.

Face it and Live With It, America is changing, Over The Rainbow, The Easter Parade, Down By The Old Mill Stream, A Picnic In The Park, Mom's Apple Pie, God Bless America, God & Jesus, The Ole Swimmin Hole, Santa Claus and a walk through Central Park on a hot summer night, IT'S ALL OVER.

Now you have, bars on your window, drugged up gangster sports hero's, 12 million illegal alien criminals running all over the country, young minority people slaughtering each other on America's streets, millions of kids that don't know who their fathers are even these kids Mothers don't know who their fathers are, by the time your daughter gets married she has had sex with about 50 different guys, Sex Perverts and Murderers are now Celebrity Heros in todays media, Female reporters have orgasms while interviewing them (Greta, Rita Cosby & Katie) you now take your life in your hands if you walk down to the corner store after dark.

Now get this, one of the most dangerous jobs in America today is working in a little Mom & Pop grocery store after dark, this is your new Left Wing Socialist Progressive Liberal America.

Hugo Chavez is still a fairly young man, you may live to see him as Your President someday.

You're right...that's about all we can do at this point thanks to the idiotic policies from Carter to Bush the Dense...Especially Bush the Sneaky and Clinton with their NAFTA treason.
