[Winona Online Democracy] Let's solve the sole source of the illegal immigration problem. Employer's who knowingly hire illegal workers. If we would fine them $3.00 per hour times 40 hours a week time 5 years or $31,200 for "each" illegal they knowingly hire the problem would diminish. Then let's index that number to the CPI so that there is no economic incentive for employers to ever break the law.
Then let's offer anyone half of the fine if they report an illegal hire and it is proven correct. Needless to say, I think the problem would be solved quickly. 1) Then let's offer employers the ability to sponsor immigrants following the practice of the fifties. 2) Employers agree that for the first five years they will guarantee full financial support as their sponsor "should the individual need it". This would include health care. 3) They agree to see that they learn to write and speak English, understand basic U.S. History and agree to assist them in obtaining full U.S. Citizenship in the fifth year. 4) Impose a law that U.S. Citizenship by birth right is only granted when their parents have become U.S. Citizens. However, U.S. Citizenship can be achieved by the naturalization process by anyone who passes the requirements of (3). If there is the will there is a way.
