Do they have a dictionary in the halls of Congress? How come no one understands the definition of illegal?
Answer:
They understand fully the definition.
The problem is not their understanding of the law, the problem is with enforcement.
You can have as many laws as you want, but if they are not enforced, then what is the point ?
Fact is, we went so long without enforcing the immigration laws that have existed in this country for 50 years.that we do not have the resources for "retro-enforcement". Not to mention, that we've allowed so many immigrants to integrate into the local economies.many facets of local economies, labor, construction, farming..have become reliant on illegal workers. Yanking them out of their jobs and deporting them now, is a death sentence for many small businesses who rely on them (exploit them) for cheap labor. We got a nice little quagmire here with the immigration issue...which is why congress is impotent in regards to producing any kind of viable solution.
This is one of the only issues I actually support Bush on, because I think the only way out of this is to set a deadline for full blown enforcement of the current laws, and provide some sort of path to legal citizenship. If this doesn't happen soon the problem only gets worse.
Ok, see, I'm sure you're trying to make a comment about immigration or something, but you could be referring to so many differant things here.
You can't honestly expect rational discussion without explaining what you're complaining about.
And honestly, it's just silly, even in sarcasm, so suggest that anyway, of course they do.
thing is, there's always more to these debates, if you could include what bills/debates/etc you are referring to, someone could at least explain why the other side feels that way, even if they're wrong, it seems like you don't even know what they're trying to say.
I am sure they have access to dictionaries. It seems Congress is being influenced by lobbyists and campaign contributors. Those of us who want to do the right thing, stopping illegal invasions, are not big money contributors.
"illegal" is a relative term in congress, just like "law" and "justice".
Obviously not. They understand the word, they would just like to change the meaning...
Well, let's see: it's illegal for politicians to take bribes, it's illegal for police to let meth labs operate if they know they are there, it's illegal to bilk your employees and steal their pensions for your golden parachute, it's illegal to wire tap without a warrent, it's illegal for the post office to open your mail, it's illegal to dump toxic waste, it's illegal in many places to yak on the cellphone while driving, it's illegal for politicians to use their offices to get jobs and perks for their relatives, believe it or not, it's illegal to lead countries into war for false reasons...
So yeah, there's a whole lot of illegal sh*t going on. We all notice that.
But considering where you have posted this to, I don't imagine you care much about all those things... and the illegal aliens are what's burning you up.
Well, it's actually illegal to hire people if they aren't citizens. I suggest you go arrest the business people who make all this happen.
Good luck with arresting a businessman in America. For them, nothing is illegal.
They are the ones who make the laws to say what is legal and what is not. Just as fashions change in clothing, fashions on what is legal and what is illegal also change. If you look into it, for a time income tax was found to be unconstitutional and therefore illegal.
I appreciate the question! i wonder about that also. Seems like the norm around me is people committing crimes, harming people and lying.. get paid off with good perks.. people who stand on truth and principal are sprayed with toxic chemicals, financially impaired intentionally, and denied housing, jobs, good medical care, proper benefits and are harrassed incessantly because we stand up to corruption alone.. what ever happened to the truth being honorable?
YOU SUCK AMERICA!
Yes they have one but it's in the wrong language.
