Illegal Immigration: The Painless Cure
By SafetalkerIn the past few years we have heard the muted roar of disapproval rising to new heights over the subject of Illegal Aliens living and working in our country. While this started out as a labor issue about cheaper labor undermining the ability of the Unions to hold employers to higher and higher labor costs, it is now a security issue about terrorist sneaking into our country to kill us. The result though is still the same. The people moan about it, the Politicians make laws about it, and the Illegal Aliens just keep on walking in. Is there no way to safely, and humanely stop this flood of people? If there is we must find it. It is hard to find a terror cell among millions of undocumented workers, and illegal Border crossers.The Irish arrived in large numbers when the Potato crop failed in Ireland; we processed them on Liberty Island and released them to make their dreams come true. Then in the 60's the anti-Castro Cubans arrived by Air and by Boat, we processed them and gave them a short stipend to get started and they merged into the American way of life. The Vietnamese boat people's arrived in the 70's, and we took them to Arkansas and processed them, and sent them on their way. In each case these new immigrants came to this country to start a new life. They were here to become Americans. Now however we have a different type of immigrant. Today millions of men, women, and children cross our borders in the dark of night, and the light of day. They come for many reasons. Some come to live the American dream. They want to find new lives without oppression, and without fear. Others however come to make as much money as possible and then to return to their homes with the cash and live our dream in their own country. I salute both of these groups for their bravery in walking across at least one desert, braving blazing temperatures in the 100's, drug runners, the infamous Federalies (Mexican Government Troops), and local border criminals on both sides. However, they are here as Criminals. They are not here as house guests but as brazen,house breakers.
