I had a hard time following your logic, but it sounds as though your contention is that the problems created by illegal immigration would be solved if we just create a permanent underclass of people who are prohibited by law from owning anything and can therefore never legally acquire the means to go anywhere else.
Somehow, I don't think that will help.

I admit I have a hard time explaining myself many times.
I mean to use something like this idea not to deny but to make it
very clear that this is one of many options the Gov could use
to get people who are here illegally to at least start the process to
either obtain legal status or in the above member's case become a
citizen. I can totally understand his feelings as he did it by the book
and finally obtained citizenship. I too admit from stories I've
read and heard about, if there was a better way to streamline
the process that would have to be the priority.
I don't want to create a different class of people.
I want to see people make it here. But if coming here under illegal
means and abusing the system is just fine with them, then if/when
the Law comes down on them it's a BIG hurt. If not, what's the
sense of having law ?
I simply want those who come to this land to play by the laws
that you, I and most all play by. Illegal infestation is a health
hazard, a drain on the economy and in the end, dangerous.
Heck the kids are born here, grow up here knowing their folks
broke the law coming here illegally. Not all but most do. Since
it seems "ok" for their people to break the law, why should they
obey it in any form..?
All one has to do is look at L.A to see what kind of mess it's
turned out to be. I don't have the answer in stopping it, but
as stated I'm open to any solutions.
