What’s wrong with the statue of liberty and Emma Lazarus? The problem is welfare and government spending, not immigration. Take away the benefits and you’ll have folks who actually want to work.
My remark about the Statue of Liberty is how it is used in the immigration debate. Just about every person who references it is leftwing on immigration. It’s just frustrating that with an issue as big and complex as immigration, some people actually think referencing the Statue of Liberty adds to the discussion.
And of course the Statue originally had nothing to do with immigration, so that makes it even worse. As I read some where else, it’s almost as if someone wrote an poem, put it in front of a statue, and now we can’t have a sane immigration policy because of it.
