I'm saying apprehend them and send the back - real simple. Just like Mexico does on their southern border. The ten million or more that are here are a huge burden on the border states. Send them back too. It's been done before under Truman and Eisenhower. I do not agree that nobody would do those jobs. These businesses will adjust their wages and their conditions to fill th void. I've cleaned the equipment in a butcher shop. I have been a grease monkey at a mechanic shop. I have chipped paint in the Navy. People who need a job will take a job. I knew that first hand before I had a career. Ken
