We can't discuss with intent to resolve it because the politicians don't want to discuss something that might jeopardize their re-elections - in the meantime each side panders to their base by only pushing their position - in order to get re-elected.

Do we make a system that would require the only "amnesty" would be those that are willing to go home and apply through the front door?
I'm thinking in terms of number$. What will it cost to find, deport and then let them reapply. Is it even logistically feasible.

Some way of streamlining applying for those already here needs to be developed, with priority given to those who are contributing (military service, getting an education etc..). If you don't qualify (i.e. convicted of a crime) home you go.

I don't know Brian. Though I am pretty sure that the longer we wait to resolve this issue that it will be both hard and more costly.

Much as most every other major topic that gets booted to a later date.
