ILLEGAL-IMMIGRATION IS ONE OF TODAY'S MOST-DIVISIVE ISSUES. BUT, IF WE PUT ASIDE THE POLITICAL-POSTURING, THERE IS A FAIRLY SIMPLE ANSWER. IT'S CALLED "THE RED-CARD SOLUTION": A FREE-MARKET APPROACH, FROM THE VERNON K- KRIEBLE FOUNDATION, THAT CAN BOTH SECURE OUR BORDERS, AND PROVIDE THE WORKERS THAT OUR RECOVERING ECONOMY WILL NEED--LEGALLY. IT DOES THAT BY LINKING SPECIFIC WORKERS TO SPECIFIC JOBS, RUNNING BACKGROUND-CHECKS ON ALL WORKERS, AND PROVIDING "SMART CARDS" FOR IDENTIFICATION. THIS PROVIDES A SAFE AND LEGAL WAY FOR WORKERS TO GET JOBS--AND FOR SMALL BUSINESSES TO GET WORKERS. EVEN MORE IMPORTANTLY, IT GIVES US A WAY TO CONTROL OUR BORDERS--BY ELIMINATING MOST ILLEGAL ENTRY. IT ALSO GIVES PEOPLE WHO ARE ALREADY HERE ILLEGALLY AN INCENTIVE TO LEAVE AND COME BACK LEGALLY--GIVING THEM A SIMPLE PATH, NOT TO CITIZENSHIP, BUT TO LEGAL STATUS AS TEMPORARY WORKERS WHO BECOME PRODUCTIVE TAXPAYERS--NOT TAX-DRAINERS. TO FIND OUT HOW YOU CAN HELP, VISIT "RED-CARD-SOLUTION"-DOT-COM.
