Immigration

It surprises me that no one has hooked into the biggest opportunity in immigration since Columbus unloaded his European cargo in the free world more than 500 years ago. All he had to do was shoot a few natives and infect them with small pox to take away their land. We have an opportunity for a wholesale immigration without the nasty side effect of having to get rid of the natives. It is pristine, untouched land just waiting to be exploited. Opportunity abounds and it would be the Oklahoma land rush all over again. Maybe we could even dig up some relatives of Rogers and Hammerstein to write a musical or have Andrew Lloyd Webber take a break from his busy Broadway schedule to put something together.

Of course I’m talking about Antarctica. It has too many syllables, so you would have to write a new opening score. Just think of the costuming. The native fauna already has the tuxedoes and swim like they are professional water ballet dancers. The scenery changes would be simple since you are going from a white back ground to a white back ground. But enough of the musical. We have immigration to talk about.

We have a boatload of impoverished non-English speaking illegal squatters that have decided to flaunt the fact that they are in our country. They come to the US to seek a better life but enter the country illegally. Now I know, that if I get caught speeding (which is a bad example because I am the guy you get pissed at for driving the speed limit) and claim that I did not see the speed limit sign, the officer will more than likely give me a ticket. He will say that ignorance of the law is no excuse. Yet we have millions of illegal, non-US squatters, entering our country and the law is doing nothing about it. It looks like if you are a citizen that you are to live by the rules and regulations of the country but if you are here illegally, it is peachy keen. Break the rules, we don’t care. Oh you didn’t know the rules. Well that law only applies to citizens. Oh you don’t speak English. Well let us have our citizen’s pay for sign that you can read. I don’t know about you but my blood is swiftly reaching 212º over this issue.

It looks like our illustrious Congress is actually courting these criminals. Yes, criminals. They are here illegally and have broken the law. Now what does the law say about helping criminals? Isn’t that called abetting? So our own leaders are aiding and abetting known criminals. I smell arrests. No, wait a minute. They are allowed to break the law, I forgot. Yes and the illegals also.

This has nothing to do with cheap labor. This has to do breaking the law. It has to do with using resources that are in place for US citizens. It has to do with our own health care system. It has to do with terrorism. If we can’t control who is coming across our borders, why bother to guard anything. They have arrested illegals working in nuclear power plants. HELLO! Is there anyone awake at the wheel? Let’s cause a big issue and allow the wrong people into a plant with radioactive material. I wonder if glowing in the dark makes the aliens any more illegal?

Do I have a solution to the issue? Building a fence is costly and permanent. How about just enforcing what is currently on the books? It would require government agents to perform their jobs instead of being told to ignore certain issues. Vote out the jack asses in Congress who see this as a way to boost constituency. This is America. It is the land of freedom. That is freedom for Americans. If you are here to become an American and are doing it legally, welcome. If you are here illegally and you are seeking a better life, get your name on the list and stand in line. It starts at the border. Hopefully for you, they do not model it after the bureau of motor vehicles. Next.
