New Americans get sworn in on the 4th of July

If any of you illegals do understand english, then maybe you should pay attention to the 100's of people who did the right thing and applied for the right to become an American citizen.  Their journey ended when they were sworn in yesterday. 

Sure it wasn't easy but they took the time to go to classes, learn our language and our customs.  Instead of just jumping the border and demanding rights they joined the millions who came before them with hopes and dreams of a better life.  They don't have to look over their shoulder and see if law enforcement was keeping any eye on them or waiting to see if you were going to be deported.

I certainly hope that when they do take up the issue of immigration reform they don't forget about all the people who did the right thing and went thru the system that made this country great.

One solution that would work

Heavy fines for employers hiring any illegal would turn off the spikett, thereby making it nearly impossible for them to gain employment.

The Goshen effect

I live in northern Indiana. Approximately 25 miles southeast of us is the City of Goshen, In. Goshen is close to Elkhart, In which is the RV capital of the world. During the boom times thousands of illegals made their way to northern Indiana to work for any one of 100 manufacturers. The problems was most of them could not speak english, the crime rate in Goshen went from non-existant to dealing with gangs and various other crimes. The cost to the city and taxpayers was enormous. The hospitals were inindated with high number of uninsured patients. You get the picture.
