"Someone talk me out of this despondency"
but really, can this country be saved from the illegal invasion?

The answer is no. I posted this on another thread:

At this point, the best plan is no plan. Since it's apparent that illegals are not going to be deported or encouraged to leave via employer sanctions, it's better to let them be absorbed via anchor babies than to actually enact legislation that formalizes amnesty for generations to come.

Since no plan is the logical outcome, social, legal & business planners are busy projecting what this will mean in terms of political, economic and business opportunities. From this perspective, it's actually quite easy: if you want to know what lies in store for America, look no further than Los Angeles.

I have to admit that I've personally benefited from the influx of illegals. And so too will the rest of the nation, but not by the means most would assume. That is, the true gain is not via employment, but real estate. LA is one of the most segregated regions in the country - there are millions of unassimilated Hispanics.

What does this mean in terms of real estate? Suburban flight - a big part of the price hikes seen in 'secure' areas (ie no substandard housing, no apartments, self-contained school district, etc). LA is the future - you don't have to compromise your ethics in terms of dealing with illegals to gain from their presence.

Geez - I hope my city doesn't turn into a gang-ridden, dope-dealing p-hole like LA. Not exactly progress amigo.
