Im sorry it would be much EASIER and cost effective to put out an announcement that says "IF YOU ARE ILLEGALLY IN THIS COUNTRY, GO TO THE DMV AND FILL OUT A WORK VISA PERMIT THIS WILL ALLOW YOU TO STAY IN THE COUNTRY FOR 3 YEARS".

Then put out another announcement "IF YOU ARE CAUGHT INSIDE THIS COUNTRY WITH NO PAPERWORK YOU WILL BE DEPORTED NO QUESTIONS ASKED"

There would be lines around the block to get in. We would get the MAJORITY of their names, addresses, etc. They would have documentation when they go to work for an employer that would could TRACK, etc.

Sure there would be a few that didnt go get registered, but who cares, we will catch them eventually when they break a law and they will get the boot.

Have some criteria that they have to meet in 3 years to be able to re-apply, like if they work they have to have paid taxes, worked for 12 months of those 3 years if they are over the age of 20 or something. If they are in school they have to have a C average. I dont know we can figure that out later.

Let the people that want to stay an work, stay. There is no way we can round them all up and kick them out, that will NEVER happen. So we might as well go with the next best alternative

this right here its a good idea. but i think in order to get that there should also be some things to be met, cause if america straight up says "we are giving all of the illegals a working visa for three years at a time" do u have an idea how many people are going to try to sneak in? and on top of that it shouldbt a one time thing. if whoever did qualify for it can renew it after those years are passed, but if u never did do it originally u cant.

and 2nd of all as of now if u get caught with no papers and u cant prove ur either a permanent resident or citizen while being from another country u do get deported. thats why i was told to carry my wallet and my citizenship with me at all times.

when i drove from here to california last spring break u have no idea how many times i had to take out my wallet and show them my card. they had ramdom as checkpoints along the interstate. i drove straight there with a bunch of redbull and coffe and from texas to california i got stoped atleast 5-6 times. it got to the point were i just left my card on top of my dash.
