IMMIGRATION NATION
One of the Republican candidates proposes that if he were elected, he would deport every illegal alien and require them to properly apply before coming back. This was a great idea 25 years ago. By now, however, that is a daunting task, would rip apart families all over the nation, and would create a major policing nightmare (11.7 million reside here). Its an idea that gets backing from protectionists who do not want to share the American dream with any other immigrant, but keep it for ourselves. We, who built our economy on the backs of African slave labor and stole land from the native Americans, don’t want the same opportunities for others. Perhaps a bit hypocritical.
Immigration is surely a major problem in America that desperately needs fixed. But, is this the best deal? No one’s right and no one’s wrong, but I’d like your opinion. What do you think of this plan?
