[QUOTE="Lurker66, post: 2531427, member: 24459"] Oh boy. Heres my idea of a Moderate politician. Say we have a National problem, todays hot topic is immigration so with that in mind we look at the problem. Too many illegals are undocumented yet live and work here. The far Left says blanket amnesty, the far Right say deport them. The Moderate understands the problem is political and that means there must be a solution that involves compromises from both extremes. The extreme left and extreme right wont bend, the moderates are left to attempt a solution. Much like you(far right), you try to persuade, ridicule or use other lame azz rhetoric to get the moderates on your side. The left trys the same. This polarizes the Nation and pits one side with the other. We get no amnesty and we get no deporting. But as you can see, we still havent solved the problem. Too many undocumented workers. Something or somebody has to bend. The Moderates understand that Politics is compromises. Neither side can win, its a stalemate. But it doesnt have to be. We could modify some laws and penalize companies for hireing them. But that would mean the construction industry would suffer and the agriculture industry would suffer. Causing wages to go up or houses wouldnt be built. Or food costs would rise because produce would rot in the Fields. The far Right would never go for this. No way will they penalize a Corpiration or Company.....and they would never agree to raise wages, making these jobs more lucrative to AMERICAN CITIZENS. Noway would the Far Right accept blanket amnesty fir 10 million voters, who happen to hate them and tend to side with the left. The Left meanwhile see the problem differently. They see the problem as "theyve been here for a long time, theyre working building houses and picking produce, leave them alone. Documenting them is justa bunch of needless paperwork or stupid tests anyway. Plus since they hate the Right, who couldnt use an extra 10million votes. Well heres a Moderate idea. Lets document those we can, say those who have citizen children in school and those who apply for drivers license. Lets document them when they come to the hospitals for care. Lets give the "border" states the resources they need to secure their section of the border. As you can see, none of these ideas are perfect, the left is gonna whine and the Right is gonna *****. The moderate just wants the problem addressed and solved, knowing that no immigration policy or Law will last forever, even if its written down in black and white. At some point the policy will need to be modified again as future generations have new ideas or borders change or citizens become more tolerant of a law that sometimes can be unjust. Your a smart guy, you can figure out the rest. Im tired of typing a lesson in politics on my phone. [/QUOTE]
