I have no problems with legal immigration to the U.S. As far as the illegals are concerned, by definition, they are not in this nation legally, and I don't see how anyone can offer them employment or recognition (i.e. the State of New York) given their illegal status. They should not be exempted from the rules.

This is what I simply do not understand. I'm not anti-immigration, like most, I'm against illegal immigration. If you want to be in the US, you gotta do the "immigration dance" and play by the rules.
Why do we treat these criminals with kid gloves? Why do we continue to turn a "blind eye" on businesses that break the law by offering employment to these people?
The answer of course, is simple, $$$ and greed. Businesses can exploit illegals to increase their bottom dollar. Of course, as we're now seeing, this exploitation is placing a heavy load on our social and health services because these people can't qualify for them in the "normal" way...
