1. I favor...
open borders throughout the hemisphere.

However I think we need stricter control from overseas.

2. Interesting idea.

3. I say we give back the country to the American Indians and Mexico
we send the neocon to Venus,the freepers to France to get some culture,then we all go to Mars and get it's atmosphere working again. I hate the fucking racist jerk offs who think this is thier little white fundi domain.They should be proud to work with other races,they might even learn something.

4. Immigrants DO NOT lower wages.
There is very little evidence that immigration has created an atmosphere significantly conducive to falling wages.

Of course, even if it did, I would still support open borders. Wages don't rise and fall like the sea. They're set by employers. There are human beings behind those economics. We should be demanding that they pay everyone more. On a practical level, that means organizing immigrants.

5. The corporations that lobby for lax immigration law think so.
But I agree with organizing immigrants. I wonder if there is another Cesar Chavez around to do so today...

6. Other

Restrict illegal immigration, but make it easier to get here legally. And legalize illegal immigrants that have settled.
