[speaker001:] okay well what do you think about it
[speaker002:] uh well immigration I know they're really strict right now because my hundred husband is from out of the country and uh we had to go through a whole very long process to uh to assure the government that he was uh marrying me and not to be a resident here
[speaker001:] um-hum that's interesting yeah I think that's uh I think it's a little crazy I worked with Spanish people
[speaker002:] uh-huh
[speaker001:] for about two years and just it was incredible to me to see the things that they had to go through when they were really some of the best workers
[speaker002:] yeah that's true I mean you can't just come over to the country because uh you want to
[speaker001:] right
[speaker002:] you know that's not good enough you have to have a have to have a darn good reason of political or whatever
[speaker001:] right exactly
[speaker002:] it's not a good not a good easy way to get in
[speaker001:] yeah I think you know I think in a lot of ways the law is good because it tries to to protect you know the people who are in the states
[speaker002:] exactly my mother uh actually knew a woman uh in another state that used to marry men just never she'd never even meet them and she'd just get money for it
[speaker001:] uh-huh oh you're kidding
[speaker002:] huh-uh so uh
[speaker001:] sounds like a lot of fun yeah it's amazing to me how how many things they would allow
[speaker002:] uh
[speaker001:] to occur before you know you can come in and
[speaker002:] exactly but I mean with the new laws it's really it's tough now
[speaker001:] right yeah it's kind of frustrating too for those who are legitimate now you know I think
[speaker002:] exactly well and you know uh my grandparents came to this country just wanting a better life you know and they got here but now it's a you know it's so strict that you you can't just do that
[speaker001:] uh-huh right exactly and I think it's important that they you know they allow a good number of people in every year because really they're the ones who work the hardest and do the jobs that that we don't want to do
[speaker002:] I agree
[speaker001:] and I just I don't know I have personally I have a problem with it I think that you know if someone wants to come in and they can prove that they're going to work and they're going to be a good citizen that
[speaker002:] exactly if they're not going to be on welfare or or whatever they're going to be a productive citizen
[speaker001:] we shouldn't close our door yeah and you know I I believe that if someone goes on welfare that's when you you know send them back to their country
[speaker002:] yeah but
[speaker001:] and I think a lot of times we're so busy trying to keep them out that we're spending twice as much money as we would just allowing them in and
[speaker002:] well think of how many illegal aliens have have have been uh you know sent back to Mexico just to find their way back
[speaker001:] yeah and that's that's what I think you know I I have to laugh because like I said I worked with a lot of those and they'd been deported two or three times and just basically what they do is they get caught when they wanted to go home for Christmas
[speaker002:] that's right that's our money
[speaker001:] or for any other time
[speaker002:] yes that's true
[speaker001:] but I think you know I think all in all there's a lot of improvements I think the general idea is good but but there could be some work done in the area
[speaker002:] I I think I agree I agree
[speaker001:] well good
[speaker002:] yeah
[speaker001:] anyway do you have anything else in the the subject uh that you might want to talk about
[speaker002:] uh boy this is spur of the moment um uh but I I don't really see any any uh changes that I think are really blatant right now other than I think they ought to take you know on a case by case basis and not necessarily make it a um political refugee
[speaker001:] yeah absolutely I think a lot of times we take you know basically who we want to because if you if you have connections it's a lot easier to get in
[speaker002:] exactly connections and money
[speaker001:] yeah and I think you know it should be more of a thing that's based upon someone's intent you know
[speaker002:] yeah
[speaker001:] and that it should be equal to all and then not like the United States basically it's not who you know it doesn't it doesn't become a thing of who you know but but how the type of person you are and it should be based on those kinds of things so the good people like probably your husband can get in
[speaker002:] I agree yeah well we got him past that but uh there's I know there's a lot of other people out there
[speaker001:] well great
[speaker002:] would probably do a good job here
[speaker001:] yep well let's see is there anything I believe in
[speaker002:] I think that's it is this like a very short call
[speaker001:] no I'm not sure how long they're supposed to be but I've enjoyed it it's good hearing your your point of view and I think that's neat I think we agree a lot on that and
[speaker002:] that's true
[speaker001:] I've learned something from it
[speaker002:] well it was nice talking to you
[speaker001:] well thanks I'm glad you're home you have a good evening all right
[speaker002:] you too
[speaker001:] thanks bye-bye
[speaker002:] bye-bye
