In the never ending trip into the ridiculous and dangerous, efforts are being increased to allow illegal aliens to have driver’s certificates and insurance.  The push for certificates is to circumvent the Federal REAL ID law designed to prevent states issuing driver’s licenses to anyone without first verifying their immigration status.  These people are illegal.  Apparently, the word has earned a new definition as the battle over “rights” has been waged.  I do not understand why anyone, given the circumstances in the world, would think that it is a good idea to have millions of undocumented people in our country and now giving them the opportunity to have mobility in addition to obscurity.  I suppose a written certificate would give some documentation as to identity and location but given the current limited pursuit of illegals, it will not serve to reduce their risk to our national security.  Has anyone noticed that up to eighty percent of the money earned by illegals finds its way out of our economy and back to their homeland?  Do you think that the loss of that money might reduce some spending in our economy,  not to mention that their continued illegal residency drains billions of dollars in resources from our health and public school systems? Plus it eliminates jobs taken up by illegals that at least some citizens would be able to fill, even if it were as a last resort for them, still a job.  In our Republic, the majority should be followed in the policies towards illegals.  Every survey says their “rights” should be reduced.

   We can’t expect Mexico to stop it, the influx of American dollars keeps their economy afloat.  We can’t expect Democrats to do it because it is worth too many votes.  We can’t build enough walls.  There is only one solution.  Remove incentives for illegals to be here.  Give an opportunity for those in this country already to formally register as aliens with the possibility of citizenship as long as they fulfill citizenship obligations that every legal immigrant has done.  They should be removed but I don’t believe that is possible.  However, any that do not register within a prearranged time frame should to be pursued and prosecuted, perhaps by a bounty system.  Any new arrivals after the deadline shoud also be prosecuted.  Any business hiring illegals should be fined and prosecuted.  If we don’t get serious, the influx will never stop and it desperately needs to.  The golden goose is dying.
