Ron Paul takes an incredibly tough line on illegal immigrants, but not quite for the reasons you might expect. He says illegals should be discouraged from coming to the country by having their benefits cut off. However, he says this is because otherwise the government will try to create a national databank that will initially be for tracking illegals, but ultimately will track citizens as well, and some day we’ll all be tracked and oppressed through it and prevented from leaving the country. “In touch economic times, people want to leave the country. That’s a sad fact.”
