If Republicans really wanted to do something about illegal immigration they would just force employers/contractors to use E-Verify and place huge fines on employers that hire undocumented workers. So while Republicans are openly against immigration I have the impression that some in their party support it since it helps them bust unions and keep wages down. Even the crazies here in NC couldn't get an E-verify bill through because our conservative governor vetoed it.

That said I'm all for immigration but I'm just baffled why conservatives tend to opt for building giant fences, or other stupid poo poo when everything could be solved with E-verify and random workplace inspections.

A fence won't work when you have employers waving signs saying they'll hire you.

Anyway, doesn't the rest of the first world have stricter immigration policies than the US? I have the impression that if I tried to illegally immigrate to Canada for that sweet socialist healthcare I might get past the border police but I wouldn't be able to find a job, buy a home or go to a hospital without being arrested.

We still can't agree on what's a good form of immigration reform without calling each other racists.

Prehaps we need to ban racists so we can get past this roadblock and heal.

Amnesty for those already here. Strict hiring policies after that. What always annoys me about cconservatives is that they never put any blame on employers for encouraging it to begin with. Basically I prescribe to Ha joon changs view on immigration.

This is what I tell my conservative coworkers whenever they complain about our employer.
