#1 I disagree with equating amnesty with slavery.

Amnesty would actually free what amounts to a slave class.

As illegal aliens, they have far fewer of the right of citizens: they cannot unionize; they can be cheated, and thrown out of the country if they do not let themselves be cheated; they are not covered by health and safety laws; they cannot sue their employer in federal court; etc., ad nauseum.

But this does not go to the heart of the argument.

The truth is *either* that they should be kicked out, *or* that they should be given amnesty. But allowing them to remain here, and remain illegal, is very close to slavery.

Once legal, they *can* do all of the things to protect themselves that citizens can, so they great scam will be over.
