I wish people would get a whiff of the Diversity Visa program. Just Google it. Is reserves 50,000 green cards per year for people from poor countries that are not well represented in the American population. I found out about it from the Bangalis who have suddenly descended on the c-stores in my neighborhood. We needed them like a hole in the head. We are already coping with SE Asians who are turnng our trailer park into a Cambodioan refugee camp, half million noisy Haitians, millions of Cubans, French Canadian snowbirds and fugitives from Chavez's Venezuela. We are an integrated city that is 67% black. What moron thinks we need diversity visas?
Another crock is the outrageous number of tourist visas issued to Mexicans. The visas have a 10-year duration, and many of them are nothing more than get through the border free cards. The state dept does not follow the law for issuance of these visas (they issue them to poor people who do not have the requisite "attachements" to Mexico that insure that they won't immigrate to the US), and the accumulation of people who are holding these cards at present numbers in the millions. What this means is that, even if the most stringent border enforcement measures are put in place, if the wall is constructed, illegal mexicans will still be able to come and go freely through the US ports of entry.
