16. Because that mass will multiply

Edited on Mon Jun-18-07 06:14 AM by Nick at Noon

but how on earth can switching a mass of people's immigration status from illegal to legal be detrimental to the economy?

When Jose becomes legal he will send for Maria. She will bring along little Maria, Juan and Roberto. Maria and Jose will both bring their parents and their parents other children to the land of plenty.

In ten years that 12 million "mass" you refer to will be up to 30 or 40 million. Can our social services, prisons and education system handle that strain ?
