...The new minister voiced concern that the majority of legal immigration into France was that of existing immigrants bringing in relatives, while only a small proportion were granted visas due to their professional skills.

"To be integrated, you need language skills and a professional activity," he told RFI, and said he is considering introducing a language test to prospective immigrants.
May this program be a great success!:RockOn - not mine:

That's bs though if you think about it. We should make them pay a fine and then deport them. Why should uncle sam (you and I) have to pay for it?

This whole immigration crap is a waste of time. We don't enforce our own laws now, so why would we in the future? Illegals are going to keep coming unless we make it painful enough for them to stay out.

Pay someone $8000 so they can pay a coyote to bring more of their family back. I think this idea would be a bit of a bad idea here.

I say we pay coyotes to put them on boats straight to China or India.
