If you have ants, you clean the soda off the counter. If you have rats, you pick up the food. If you have cockroaches you clean your house. I'm going to follow the logic with this statement, "If you have illegals, take away the benefits."

Calm down for a minute, there will plenty of reason for you to get worked up at the end. I promise!

I'm not talking about free medical, free education for their illegal children, free welfare benefits for the lazy ones or social security for the hard working ones. I'm talking about taking away all the benefits.

LAND. Stop letting them own property. Any property. If an illegal buys a home, they can keep it. Does that sound right to you? Doesn't to me.

And not just the illegals, stop letting any foreigners own property. If you are a citizen, no sweat, you are invested enough in this country to benefit from it, but if you are an illegal, legal resident, or other foreigner with a recognized status in this country you should not own land here. No citizenship, no land. Plain and simple.

You liberals always want to compare us to the other industrialized nations, heath-care, minimum wages, social benefits and so on. Well, try buying land in a foreign country, a near impossibility. We can't own land in Mexico, why do we let them do it here?

If we take away the cheese, we get rid of the mice. Now, onto the rest of the benefits they can do without. Work stations paid for with my tax dollars, watering holes in the desert for those who are breaking our laws (we tell them not to come then hand them a map of where to go, make sense, not) Drivers licenses, a no. Free medical (not really free, you an I pay for it) a no. Free education for their children right up to an including college (again, not free, we pay for it) a no. Oh, Oh, Oh, welfare benefits for people who haven't paid in a dime for free (nope not really free either) a no.

Even the way we return the ones we do home, a 737 jetliner we fly to Mexico for free (we pay over $4,000,000.00 per year for this free service) another no. The one thing I would give them for free, a map home, they walked here, they can walk back.

Let's not forget what we pay each time we have an election, we print everything twice, once in English and once in Spanish for these people that say that learning English is to hard for them. What the hell does that cost me every time we do it. Again, try finding a voter pamphlet in English in France, Spain, Germany, Russia or Japan.

You people are right, we should be more like foreign countries, they don't let them in in the first place unless they have papers.

My point, stop making it so damn easy for them to come here and become a working part of the country without becoming a part of the country. If I come to your house and partake of your hospitality, I sure as hell am not going to tell you that you should do it like I do at my house.

Ellis Island has been closed for 30 years, why can't we control our borders?
