If it were only that easy. They have priorities right now, two wars and a crippled economy. IF we hit businesses in this bad economy and they have to pay living wages and provide benfits many will go under. It might seem obvious that with high umemployment it would be easy to fill the jobs but the time is not right.

Also the resources are not there, local police and for that matter many towns, cities and states are struggling to get by. How much in federal spending are we talking about? Do WE have the resources while fighting two wars.

It's a matter of time...just not now. First let's fix healthcare and the economy...and GTF out of these wars.

Priorities...

First lets fix government. Economy will then fix itself and fair health care can be hammered out with due caution.

Enforcing Immigration Law and capping the number of foreign workers can be done while waiting for Gov. to get fixed.

Department of Homeland Security doesn't have the job of repairing the economy. They are in charge of protecting our borders and applying the Immigration Law. They get paid whether they do that job or not.

There are other fed. agencies in charge of health care and fixing gov. That's not the DHS job.

Napolitano has orders not to do raids on businesses. That is not in the best interest of Americans without jobs or a way to provide for their families.

The argument that those who have lost their jobs are just lazy. That's pure unfounded BS.

Get the Illegal out and I'm sure, the hungry Americans would fill those jobs.

Illegals are being effected by job losses also... Do you really think that because they ain't legal they ain't people? They live here also and just like the rest of us when jobs get scarce they lose jobs also... Without the benefit of Unemployment checks to tide them over.
