Illegal Immigration; What Can We Do About It

Some say that the people coming over our border are just trying to build a better life? Well not all of them, some come to join gangs, sell drugs or steal cars. Did you know that currently if you are caught three times you are barred for life from even visiting currently, in AZ over 35% of the Prison population is illegal aliens, that is a huge cost indeed.

One man stated; “How about creating Immigration posts along the border with Mexico and as the US deports the illegals, tell them to get in line to legalize themselves - not put them in jail along with hardened criminals?”

If we had bio-metric ID cards for those immigrating or on work visas, we could have a simple plan, but we need to be paid back transportation costs too. This should not be a burden on the taxpayer either. If someone committed a crime, deport for life, if we had our borders secure, we could do this, if not, well it would all be talk and basically that is where we have been all along.

We want tourism, trade, money flows back, as so much money has been sent there. Mexican Nationals travel here and Americans travel there, we reciprocate, these are good things. We have many zones where so many people come and go each day that those cities like El Paso are really “free zones” in other words the check points are after the city and often the border is a chain link fence with houses on both sides and shopping carts lined up for those who hop the fence to buy groceries so in that case, I wonder who we think we are kidding here really.

We need to take into consideration the issues of disruption also, those could be quite serious, but as it stands now, may as well have no border than this charade. We need a fair plan, streamline immigration and protect our country and the laws here. Besides during wartime let’s not do anything stupid either. Let’s consider this in 2006.

Intergrating Illegal Immigrants

Is this newly scripted and revealed Presidential program to deal with illegal immigrants by embedding them as "Guests Workers", more or less going to be best for America? That is really the main question. Not what is best for you, although you do vote that way, and perhaps you should, but putting the country first before self is an old habit of mine. Thinking this way, and being a Christian, causes me to do more thinking than is necessary, I suppose, however, it causes me also to see things from a different perspective. I can't help but ponder the direction this countries leaders are leading us. I am of course not comfortable with the "Just take them out to International waters and drop em!" solution. Nor am I about to accept the Presidential "Prescription". There is both a better way, yet human, while saving tax dollar First though, what is the end results of the Presidents new stated policy to deal with illegal aliens.

A massive influx of Illegal Immigrants is one thing. Hidden cash society is not a good thing when you look at it from the governments perspective. Not only are you missing out on controlling your borders,but all the tax money will be missed. And then you will have to provide the same services for illegal Immigrants as for any citizen of America. Welfare; Health; Human Services take a huge toll uponour country strength, but must be done to establish this countries health!

So what is the answer to this problem from the Administrative view?Giving "status" of different levels will create another level of citizenship.Having doubled the voting membership, one can only sense an outcome from the voting boothof both Catholic inspired social influences and a further melding of both countries. Is this the planned outcome?

If you allowed a huge influx of any socially similar group of legal or Illegal Immigrants, you would get the same results, that is, you would have to absorb within your present society all the baggage of; social, economical, as well as education, and philosophy, imported along with those persons. You see, this is America after all, and they must be given a vote, a say, in the direction of their new country. Catholic is no different than any other religion, in that all religions have inculcated within any person of its persuasion it own "brand" of looking at the
human experience. Thus, I am pointing this out in this vein. Political Planks, such as Birth Control, Abortion, and Immigration Law, would have serious impact upon this nation.

If anyone were to leave America for other lands, as the early English did historically wheneverthey came to this shore, the society and landscape of law and politics was changed to their idea of how things should be. Their "footprint" never changed, only the place of residence. Knowing this to be a human trait not yet extinguished, a "mixing" of Mexican and South American philosophy is to be expected. Can you accept this change? Would you want to? Too bad if you don't because it is now "Policy" due to the influx of persons who might vote in unison!

To heap tracking upon any Illegal Immigrants now having dual citizenship, AFTER they have been granted permission to stay in America. is itself ILLIGAL. Unless you heap it upon all of our citizens! You can then look forward to the soon coming day when you are tracked. Is the stepping up of patrolling the border with Mexico to keep the Illegal Aliens from coming into America? To keep the "Terrorist" from infiltrating? Or is it also to keep you Prisoner? I think only two of those questions is answered positive. You can stop some terror from infiltrating America. You can keep its citizens prisoner. But no patrolling will stop Illegal Immigration! I know this from past experience.

As a member of a River Patrol Section (Patrol Boat River PBR's), with the joint work of Seal Teams; Army and others was my assignment. Using night vision optics; Phyc war events; helicopters; hover craft; Swift Boats; spies; South Vietnamese Troops (who were supposed to know the terain);mortar batteries (with pre-set firing coordinatates); B 52 bombers; f16's and lots of other assets in place, (and remember, all were attended by trained experts),still we did not prevent thousands of boats filled with hundreds of thousands of VC from crossing the rivers! What makes you think the National Guard, stretched to the limits, will accomplish the same objective? Simply put, they can't! Then what can be done to stem this tide of humanity? Is the Presidents program the only solution? No!

To stop Illegal Immigration from Mexico in one day, and save tax dollars, while remaining human to others you need to;

1) Place a levy the Mexican Government $1,000 US dollars for every Illegal Immigrant caught crossing, or caught in this country. Place a bounty upon all Illegal Aliens that would reward anyone that called Authorities (Available to U.S. citizens only! Without hindering a person themselves, such action is against the law and you will be prosecuted for it!) about the whereabouts of any Illegal Immigrant!

2) AND subtract the $1,000 US dollars, or whatever the balance is of dealing with this persons illegal entry. That is, for an example, having to place him into prison for 10 years would lessen our Billions of dollars in aid we send to Mexico and South America by the amount it cost us to incarcerate the person and handle the case.

Now! How fast do you think the Mexican Government would place its own border patrol or National Guard along its own border with America? But of course, that is not the way to shift dollars from the American Taxpayer to the coiffeurs of Big Business. Buying hardware, such as Motion Detectors is! Bringing in millions of Illegal Aliens is!

Would such a program be implemented by any administration? Yes. If the people vote for it! And if the people, the voting populace, act quickly, before there is all to apt to be a negative vote from new dual citizens!

In summation, what we have here is not failure to communicate! Nor the power to think. Nor do we lack the power to contol our own borders to a greater degree, using political negotiation. What we have here is something very much different! What we have here is indeed a conspiracy between the President of Mexico and the President of the United States of America, and others, to the hurt of America! Intolerable.

Legal Nurse Consultant

Nurses with an interest for both emergency room trauma and courtroom drama may want to pursue a nursing degree in legal nurse consulting. Legal nurse consultants use their healthcare know-how in conjunction with an interest in the legal system to have a rewarding career in this combined profession.

Legal nurse consultants are commonly called by defense attorneys and prosecutors for their forensic or pharmacological familiarity to help determine difficult criminal or civil cases. More commonly, legal nurse consultants consult with attorneys and others in the legal field on medical malpractice, personal injury, workers' compensation and other healthcare-related cases. These legal specialists are responsible for interviewing clients, reviews medical records, researches and summarizes medical literature, helps evaluate liabilities and damages, assists with depositions, prepares exhibits, and identifies and retains expert witnesses.

Legal nurse consultants are registered nurses who have previously worked in emergency rooms, or in other disciplines, who then take on focused training at legal nurse consulting schools. These schools offer on-campus or online nursing degree coursework in legal ethics, personal injury cases, forensic science, and legal writing to name a few. There are also dedicated classes in legal issues about medical malpractice, auto accident injury, lower back pain, and product liability.

Certified legal nurse consultants are regularly contracted to work with private attorneys and corporate lawyers. However, many find work outside the courtroom. Some take positions with hospitals, insurance companies, and government agencies. Many are hired to help provide quality assurance at pharmaceutical firms and chemical companies. About half of all legal nurse consultants work on staff at law firms, insurance companies and other institutions, and their salaries are just about the same as those of hospital nursing administrators, who earn about $80,000, according to a 2004 Nursing Management salary survey. The other half of legal nurse consultants work independently and earn $100 to $150 an hour or more,

Jobs in the profession are expected to grow throughout the next 10 years as more and more companies introduce medications and devices that are federally approved, or reviewed in the courtroom or by government agencies. While formal training in legal nurse consulting is not required to practice, training and educational programs are available at universities, community colleges, and other private and public institutions.
