An Open Letter to The President

Mr. President:

I have another idea about how to work with illegals in the USA.

1- If a business has hired illegals (knowingly or not), have the business sponsor the illegal immigrant.

2- The business must pay for a complete physical examination and time in quarantine (three months) for the illegal and his wife/mother of his children and children while the illegal and his family learns English. The business must support the illegals and provide adequate housing and food for them during this 3 month quarantine. Former military bases can be used to house the illegals during the quarantine and the business can pay for the housing. Food will be served in the dining hall and surplus commodities can be used. Military medical doctors, nurses, etc, will complete the physical exams, etc. Teachers will be paid by the military as adjunct instructors for the adults. The children will be taught on-base by State qualified Teachers who have volunteered for the positions and who are paid the same as they would receive in a public school with "cash-match" funds.

3- If a business decides 'it's not worth it' to them, then the business must contact Homeland Security and pay HALF of the deportation costs of the illegals and their families. Business which try to avoid paying for quarantine or deportation costs, will be prosecuted for 'harboring a fugitive.'

4- Any family with Anchor Babies is not shown any preference as the child has to decide his/her own citizenship as an adult (not as a child) and may choose his/her own culture if raised there rather than in the USA.

5- ANY illegal immigrant convicted of a felony or worse crime is AUTOMATICALLY deported after conviction, not after serving a sentence in a USA prison or jail. Those illegals convicted of murder or manslaughter, if not given a death sentence by judge/jury, will be photographed and their photos put on posters which will be placed along the border with a warning that if these individuals re-enter the USA they are agreeing to a death sentence for crimes committed in the USA. If the illegals then return to the USA and are caught, they are placed on death row, with NO appeals as they chose to flaunt their freedom by returning to the USA and by consent of such agreed to a death sentence for their crimes against humanity.

6- Immigrants married to US citizens will be given some priorities. They can serve their quarantine time where ever they live. They must pay for their own physical exam and verify this with Homeland Security. They will be given access to English classes and to citizenship classes. They will have a set time to become Naturalized USA citizens -- 3 to 4 years -- if they fail to become Naturalized USA citizens within 4 years, they will be charged $5000 for every year they do not become Naturalized past the 4th year. When their debt grows to $20,000, they will be deported, no questions asked. They forfeited their positions by not integrating into US citizenship.

7- After quarantine, all illegal immigrants will be given Social Security cards with a special ID showing that they are illegal immigrants and are employment authorized only if using that special SS number. Their employer must report to HS as well as Dept of Labor any income earned by the illegal immigrant. The illegal immigrant has five years to become a Naturalized USA citizen or forfeit the SS care and the SS number.

8- Immigrants will be prohibited from receiving any Social Security benefits or Supplemental Security Income benefits until 5 years after they have become Naturalized citizens, although they will be mandated to pay SS taxes, etc. If the immigrant's SS number shows zero income, the five years starts the first year there is income on the SS number.

9- Immigrants will not be given any State or Federal Medicaid to pay for births in the USA. Anchor Babies will not be eligible for Medicaid until they are over 1 year old. Hospitals will bill Homeland Security for half of the medical costs associated with child birth and the illegal immigrant will be responsible for paying half. If he/she fails to pay, then he/she is deported, no questions asked. Anchor Babies first year medical expenses will be billed to the illegal immigrants and to Homeland Security. HS will pay half, the illegal immigrant will be responsible for half. Congress will reimburse Homeland Security on a case by case basis.

10- Of course, if an illegal immigrant comes to the USA and becomes a Naturalized citizen, then he/she will be eligible for all the benefits of USA citizens.

I work for the State of Georgia and I give Medicaid to pay for Anchor Babies and for those Anchor Babies the first year of their lives. If the USA made it more difficult for the pregnant woman to receive benefits in the USA, most of those babies would be born in their parents' Countries.

I feel compassion for illegal immigrants who want to live the "good life" that the USA represents in media. But what we fail to show is that the "good life" belongs to those who earn it. As a Nation, we could be encouraging the other American Countries to support their population with their own economic reforms rather than 'dumping' their uneducated and unemployed population on the USA. We cannot afford to be the 'babysitter' to the rest of the Americas and the world.

I also feel anger at illegal immigrants for not "following the rules." As USAmericans, we're taught that those who follow the rules are the most successful. But what we teach: honesty, truthfulness, integrity, openness; is not what those in authority and media practice. And you know this is true.

We are a Nation of Laws. We must insist that everyone "follow the rules" so that we do not fall into chaos and end up in totalitarianism. If this means apologizing and changing the focus and intent of immigration legislation from the White House, from Congress, from the Federal Judiciary, from Governors, from State Legislatures, and from State Judiciaries, then so be it!

No man or woman or child is above the law. No man. No woman. No child. Laws are made to protect and provide for everyone who follows the rules. Those who break the rules are lawbreakers. Lawbreakers forfeit their rights by breaking the laws/rules.

If a person wishes to come to the USA lawfully and legally, that person is following the laws and should be protected by those laws and provided for by those laws. If a person chooses to arrive in the USA illegally and unlawfully, that person is breaking the laws and should be prosecuted by those laws and punished by those laws.

Mr President, we cannot have it both ways. We are either a Nation of Laws or we are in Chaos headed toward Totalitarianism. And you sir, are the one leading the parade. Which direction the USA travels is ultimately up to you.

I know there are flaws in my 1-10 above, but my comments are the truth. We're either a Nation of Laws or we're headed to perdition in a handbasket.

Which it will be is up to the President, Congress, the Supreme Court, our Governors, our State Legislators and our State Judiciary.

And ultimately up to YOU. Go here and tell them all what YOU think.
