I seriously doubt any of us would like to be an illegal immigrant considering how badly they are treated, especially when all they want is to make a better life for themselves and be able to afford to feed their families...I'm glad someone is actually passing legislation to try to help this situation. It is long overdue.

Angie:

Of course, you're absolutely right, but that is one funny letter! I think it's okay to make it easy for those illegals who are already here, but I have to agree that the focus should be on making it easier to be legal.

For the illegals who are here already, we have to find a way to make them legal citizens. Then they too can pay taxes and car insurance premiums. Seriously though, I had 2 brothers as students - lovely young men - who couldn't get into college 2 years ago because their parents were illegals. It was such a shame One was very bright and a total asset to our country, and his younger brother was going to drop out because he couldn't see the point if he couldn't go to college.

Very Funny!

As a legal immigrant in Canada now, it's really hard and expensive to be one.
