Simple solution to the immigration problem: (1.) Create a new law that says that employers must post hard to fill jobs centrally. If they can't fill them for 3 months they can hire non-citizens. (2.) Once a non-citizen has had a full-time job for 5 consecutive years, they can apply for citizenship, a 7-10 year process. (3.) Existing businesses must repost any job that an alien has and then start with #1 (as well as be penalized per existing law). (4.) Anyone applying for health services, gov't services, etc will be assessed for citizenship and treated according to law. (5.) High tech and other highly educated jobs can fast-track workers and those workers can fast-track citizenship. Done and done. Employers get the workers they need, the US gets the citizens we need. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Adobe® ColdFusion® 8 software 8 is the most important and dramatic release to date Get the Free Trial http://ad.doubleclick.net/clk;160198600;22374440;w Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Community/message.cfm/messageid:250388 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Community/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.5
