Papering Over the Illegal Immigrant Problem

    I have noted in my posts and comments below, that I have not seen illegal aliens coming to the hospital for elective care. Qualifying for a subsidy would mean presenting a W-2 and a social security number, which an illegal will not have. If they are able to forge them, they may as well forge birth certificates. At any rate, this will clearly not satisfy many. It is possible a few illegals might buy insurance through the public option system, even if it is unlikely. I therefore propose a solution. Let us go ahead and develop a national ID system. Let’s require that people carry their National ID card with them at all times.

Now, to be honest,I find “National ID Card” a bit cumbersome for an item that will need to be presented many times a day. The poor police who will be stopping you on the street for random checks to see if you have your card, are going to be exhausted and tongue tied by the end of the day. I propose that we title the National ID Card with a single word, Papers.

When you want to buy health care insurance, you show your Papers. Illegals having no Papers will not be able to buy insurance. If you want to buy food, you show your Papers. Illegals who have no Papers will not be able to buy food and will have to leave. Want to buy a car? Show your Papers. Illegals will not be able to drive to work without a car. Want to buy medicine? Show your Papers. If illegals cannot get treatment, they will have to leave. Walking down the street looking suspicious? Be prepared to show your Papers. Illegals act suspicious all the time.

This list could go on and on, but really, I cannot think of a time when it would not be appropriate to have to present your Papers. Requiring Papers for any and all societal transactions is sure to rid us of all illegal aliens. Once again we can be the land of the free and the home of the brave.
