[QUOTE="Hippie Rancher, post: 1329940, member: 4203"] It is only a civil offense to cross without papers, and a lot of them ARE on the tax rolls without getting the benefits for it, not to mention the sales and other taxes and economic activity they generate while living here. The subject is not a simple black and white one of "broken laws" or getting papers. Many poor people in Mexico and further south have no way to get papers for here because they have no way to even get them at home. Have you ever experienced a nightmare day at the MVD? Multiply that by 1000 and maybe add in having to travel hundreds of miles and stay for a week or more to get some bureaucratic snafu straightened out. When your income is a few dollars a day or even nothing. [/QUOTE]
