Wouldn't it interesting, and somewhat humorous, if congress adapted these laws?
Actual laws of Mexico:
* If you immigrate to our country, you have to speak the native language.
* You have to be a professional or an investor; no unskilled workers allowed.
* There will be no special bilingual programs in the schools. No special ballots for elections. No government business will be conducted in your language.
* Foreigners will not have the right to vote — or hold political office.
* If you’re in our country, you cannot be a burden to taxpayers. You are not entitled to welfare, food stamps, or other government goodies.
* But if you want to buy land, it'll be restricted. No waterfront, for instance. As a foreigner, you must relinquish individual rights to the property.
* You don’t have the right to protest. You're allowed no demonstrations, no foreign flag waving, no political organizing, no bad-mouthing our President or his policies.
* And if you come here illegally, you're going to jail.
