What lawmaker fails to understand regarding illegal immigration (repost)

I came across this brilliant commentary regarding the proposed law.

What people who support this amnesty for illegal aliens can't understand is the toll massive illegal immigration, and millions of amnestied aliens on the U.S. population as a whole. (and yes, it is an amnesty. Case in point, the forgiveness of tax evasion, which is amnesty from past tax obligations, and the penalties, as proscribed by U.S. law. U.S. citizens do not get the same consideration.)

) This plan, as with every amnesty in the past, entirely ignores the fact that illegal aliens are criminals. People who enter the USA illegally are not honest, the very fact that they entered illegally is proof that they have criminal intent, and therefore will commit further crimes. Those crimes are another financial burden to the taxpayers, in law enforcement costs, court costs, and the cost of incarceration and deportation.

2) In addition, the U.S. has a limit on number of legal immigrants for specific reasons, to insure that new immigrants integrate into the general population at numbers which are not damaging to the status quo. At present the U.S. accepts more legal immigrants at a higher rate than any nation on earth. This number is determined to be in the best interests of the nation to control population, to control the health of the general populace, to protect natural resources and for national security.

3) Illegal immigration at massive numbers is detrimental to fiscal stability for the majority of working citizens; to the living wage; to the nations most needy; to the infrastructures which are not capable of handling massive influx of humanity, as they age; to the public social systems and safety nets which were created to deal with a gradually increasing populace, and are not structured or funded to handle sudden massive numbers.

4) The issue of illegal immigration is not just about providing cheap labor, and providing jobs and income to some specific and segregated sector of the population which happens to be foreign nationals, who happen to work for wages which are poverty level or below.

The issue must take into account the negative effect on the majority, and on the most needy citizens of the nation, before the best interests of foreign citizens are considered.

5) The issue must take into account the future repercussions, stress on public programs resulting from that specific sector of the population exploding in numbers. The number of potential illegal alien workers is not finite in considering cost to federal, state and local services and programs which will be subsidizing and supporting the children of illegal aliens, when all studies show the specific aliens at this time produce a disproportionate number of children.

The costs of subsidizing, not just workers, but the ever increasing dependents of those workers, must be factored into the equation.

6) By limiting any "Immigration Plan" to address only the needs of some employers and the needs of only the illegal immigrant population, the study omits consideration of the whole, which is the entire population, and the effects on the entire population, including negative repercussions. The entire population is not being given the respect of being considered to be a human factor.

The impact on the rest of the population, beyond employer and immigrant worker, must be considered.
