		<description>Think the US should pay the illegal immigrants to leave.  Help them set themselves up in their home countries.  10,000,000 repatriots at $10,000 nest egg adds up to $100 billion dollars.  Which is certainly a lot of money.  But well worth it to help set up a better system.  Which would be to have guest-workers who go back home on a regular basis.  Which the current system appartently does not allow for.  Back home with some money I am sure that a lot of illegal immigrants would be very thankful for their new found success at home.  And didn&#039;t really much care about becoming US citizens anyway.</description>

		<description>Undocumented Workers 11,200,000
 
2009 population from 1 to 10
 
New York, N.Y. ..................8,363,710
Los Angeles, Calif.............. 3,833,995
Chicago, Ill........................ 2,853,114
Houston, Tex..................... 2,242,193
Philadelphia, Pa. ...............1,567,924
Phoenix, Ariz.................... 1,447,395
San Diego, Calif................ 1,351,305
Dallas, Tex. ......................1,279,910
San Diego ........................1,279,329
San Jose, Calif. ..................948,279
 
That means that is the same quantity of people that New York and Chicago has.
Just imagine our country with out people in New York and Chicago...
How expensive is going to be that?
 
Let&#039;s use our heads We are the # 1 country in the world! Let&#039;s fix this problem as We are.
 
The problem is based on the way that our broken immigration system is, if the visa gap could be larger for family members and if we could have a real temporary workers program like in Europe, We can solve the problem. Let&#039;s rebuild our database to use the E-Verify
 
We don&#039;t need more fences, we don&#039;t need more expenses on that. We just have to fix what is broken and unfortunately in this case is our law that was designed for the situation that we had 30 years ago, don&#039;t patch it, fix it!. and fix it for ever, do it right.
 
Fixing our immigration system is not just the right thing to do for immigrant workers; it&#039;s the right thing to do for all workers and for our economy.</description>

		<description>What a spin and what an insult this article is to those with an IQ above 10.  The majority of Americans, including LEGAL Latinos, want illegal aliens out of this country, our border sealed, and stringent laws penalizing employers who hire them. 

Obviously the writer does not realize that Caucasians, not Latinos, are the majority in this country and, as such, it is this ethnic group - not Latinos - who should/must receive the most attention from/by candidates.  Polls document that Obama would have won the 2008 election even if not one Latino voted for him.  Further, to assume that Lindsey Graham has any influence whatsoever on senior GOP members is a fantasy.  Graham is ridiculed by the GOP and detested by his own constituents.  Graham knows this and his &quot;efforts&quot; on behalf of LaRaza et al are analogous to someone interviewing for a job.  Graham knows he will not be re-elected and LaRaza hasn&#039;t yet figured out that he is not advocating on their behalf; rather, he is auditioning for a lobbying position in anticipation of his ouster.</description>

		<description>I am not sure if I agree with your post here. See you do make the best point, I don’t think you have actually given a large amount of thought to the opposite side of the argument. Perhaps I could do a guest post or a follow-up, just tell me.</description>
