Theyre selling us a fresh pie filled with bullshit, and weve been waiting fot something for so long that everyone is willing to take it.

Sooooo ok, lets review. We come out of the shadows and get on a 10 yr long line, mean while we get zero goverment breaks. So those are the cons.. Wtf is the pros? We get to work legally, ok, but when u work on the books a huge chuck of ur check goes off to taxes, which we'll never see returned for these 10 yrs. Ok we can go out and get a drivers license.. That may be enough for some, but is that really all weve been fighting for all these years? I mean the list goes wth is this really reforming?
I agree. It is complete overkill. And you know that the amendment isn't for the good of the country. The republicans are just mad and are trying to make it as restrictive as they possibly can (and if it kills democratic support for the bill, all the better). For a lot of undocumented people who are working off the books, there's not going to be much incentive to sign-up.

I was undocumented, but legalised through marriage. I'm in the army now, enlisted, but am currently working on becoming a commisioned officer. The branches breakdown like this. If you like being a bullet sponge, treated like shit, and you want to join the military because the uniform is "bad ass" then join the marines. If you want to be part of the biggest and most well funded branch of the military and still keep some of your freedoms, join the Army. If you like chilling on a ship, and partying in the phillipines join the Navy. And if you like sitting on a chair and making the same amount of money as your brothers in arm while doing none of the bullshit you join the Air Force.
