...If I had my way I'd simply take the Chinese illegal aliens and chuck them over the fence that's currently being build on the Mexican border and let the Mexican government deal with them.
Why not, that is the Nativist approach to every other nationality as well...

"Return to Mexico"...
Got those pro-illegal smear words down pat I see. You know damned well why the term "return to Mexico" is used. It is because by far it is Mexicans here illegally more than any other nationality. That doesn't mean that we don't want non-Mexicans here illegally to go back to their respective countries also. But then you knew that. Shed that victim mentality for Mexicans and you will be able to see the picture more clearly.
So Hispanic Americans can't cook the same food as their illegal counterparts? I mean most of their roots and ancestors are from Mexico and they continue with making their ethnic food in this country. Do illegals have some sort of secret recipes, lol?
All these posts about how we can't feel sorry for anyone willing to pay $70k to get over here, but no one mentions that the government could apparently charge $65k to grant them citizenship and no one would have to worry about any welfare leeching.
That would be putting human traffickers or snakeheads out of business!
And the govt wins with a guaranteed sum of income of cool USD65,000!
It takes how many politicians to screw up a solution? Plenty.
It takes how many people to think of a win win situation? Just 1.

Chinese peonage. I heard it's common in the chinese community in Philadelphia that people would pay most of what they earned to the debt it took to get here. I say force the human traffickers to pay back what they took from the peons plus interest, then incarcerate the traffickers, and send the ex-peons back home.
Quote:
The Peonage Abolition Act of 1867 was an Act passed by Congress on March 2, 1867, that abolished peonage in the New Mexico Territory and elsewhere in the United States. Designed to help enforce the Thirteenth Amendment, the act declares that holding any person to service or labor under the peonage system is unlawful and forever prohibited. It defines peonage as the "voluntary or involuntary service or labor of any persons . . . in liquidation of any debt or obligation." Violations were punishable by fines and imprisonment.
