"If border states would deny health care, welfare, food stamps and crack down on companies hiring them...we would have no problem."

It has long since stopped being a problem of just the border states. They are being imported by the truckloads to Georgia, Iowa, North Carolina and Arkansas, just to name a few. More and more of the American countryside is looking more like Mexico than America. The states aren't going to crack down because they rely too much on federal money, and I have some idea whereof I speak. Neither political party wants to control it because they have a vested interest in rewarding illegals, and to h*ll with the will of the people. It isn't that they can't seal the borders, or prosecute employers who hire illegals. It isn't that the resources don't exist. Where there's a will there's a way, and therein lies the problem. There is no will, except on the part of the people, who, in case you haven't noticed, don't amount to much in the overall scheme of things anymore. If the people pass a ballot initiative they don't like and it gets passed into law, some self-appointed judicial demigod will just toss it out and do what the highest "paying" politicians want anyway. Never mind the fact that the number of mideastern Muslims, in all probability with evil intent, slipping in by blending with the Mexicans coming in from the south has gotten alarmingly high.

Outstanding...and all too true.

Tyson, and other chicken and hog producers, are busing illegals into the country with impunity.
