i guess people from visa waiver countries can't be here illegally.

Its not that they cant, but because they dont want to be here permanently, legally or not. People from visa waiver counties live in developed and politically stable counties. America and other counties allow visa waiver countries to visit their economies for up to 90 days without additional paperwork.

The headline is misleading because only part of Europe (the non-emerging counties) are included. Not all of Europe is allowed, just the part that is developed and politically secure. Apparently people from developed and politically stable countries arnt usually illegal immigrants.... who knew?

Also 4 countries from Asia are allowed (which the headline neglects to include for some reason) in addition to the Australia and New Zealand.

There is a difference between wanting to go back to their country and having to go back. Given the chance a lot of them would want to stay. What they do have compared to the brown people south of the boarder is the ability to come here at will and obtain work visas. I mean, look at some of those countries on the list and tell me some of their people wouldn't want to stay here.

There is also the matter of this all being about enforcing our immigration laws. Why should a legal Cuban resident of Florida get more scrutinized than a Frenchman or Korean?

Give the brown people visas for low wage jobs and see what happens.
