It certainly is nonsensical. Comparing the next generation of children to adult immigrants is just stupid. The implication that we have some obligation, as a nation, to fund an "anti-poverty" initiative for Mexico is ridiculous. And besides, it seems not to be working.

It may not be working for them but it certainly appears to be working for us.

What happens in a capitalist society when you import poverty faster than it can be absorbed into the economy? You get alot of immigrants who will end up being unhappy with their economic status. (Opportunities take longer to develope.)
You have alot of eventual voters who are being taught they can vote themselves "property" for the "havenots" from the "haves". (Promoted by the Marxicans)
