The Immigration Riddle Solved

After finding myself ill watching the President and congress perform their well rehearsed circus bear dance for the media, two inarguable facts immediately rose to the surface:

A) The only political motivations are to attract and reinforce a particular voting base (Polls show this is the politically expedient issue to discuss, Ma'am/Sir).
B) Neither side much cares what ultimately becomes of the affected people political pawns, so long as they vote [fill in the party].

That considered, three minutes alone with my thoughts in a dark, quiet room produced a simple, five point, common sense solution to the entire "illegal immigration" conundrum.

   1) Secure the border
   2) Secure the border
   3) Secure the border
   4) Sour the milk
   5) Secure the border

Speaking to the first three points, history dictates there's NO measure of law or regulation that will make ANY difference until the border's secure. On this, there is no debate; period. Get it? Got it? GOOD! Moving along...

Both sides insist they seek solutions that speak to accountability. I'd suggest asking undocumented illegal immigrants workers aliens the following: "Why do you break our laws to come/stay here?" If it's for love of America, fine... let them give back in meaningful ways. If for any other reason, send 'em home. If they value America enough to risk life & limb to get/stay here, compulsory service is the answer... military service if they're of enlistment age, a minimum five years of community service if they aren't. Meanwhile, they'd still be responsible for simultaneously completing already established requirements to earn the status of "citizen." These souls are no strangers to hardship or hard work, either one, so if that solution leaves a sour taste in their mouths, they're formally invited to leave.

See... SIMPLE. Yet politicians run options and messaging through poll testing and focus groups, congress flounders, and the president promises executive action to save them from both themselves and evil republicans that would send the almost Americans social contributors criminals home. Enough... call your elected officials, demand they cut the bullshit, and "encourage them" to act on this plan.
