Well, heck..let's just let everybody in! Cubans, Haitians, Somalians, Rwandans, Nicaraguans, they're all victims. Mexico's pretty corrupt nowadays. Lots of people would like to flee China. And there's infinite resources here for everyone, courtesy of your tax dollars.
Feel free to petition Congress to stop allowing humanitarian refugees residency in the US. Aside from the fact that millions (or more) of Americans were refugees or are descendants of refugees I can't image how we could support any more. After all, wouldn't the Christian thing to do be to send them back to sea and say "I hope you aren't persecuted in the future" like we did with the Jews fleeing Nazi Germany.
From what I've heard they didn't decide to set sail until they were able to find *your* address. They wanted to make sure that they would be able to use your tax dollars specifically in schools, hospitals, and welfare.
No that I think about it, there's room for one more if you leave.
We would like to let everyone in, but we can't, because everyone wants to come, so rules and lines have be formed by law, some of which are silly, but they are the law of the land, for those who seek to immigrate to the USA.
One of our laws clearly state that any Cuban National is immediately granted the status of a legal immigrant candidate, if they can only reach dry land on Florida soil.
I detest the wet foot/dry foot law, but I do understand it was meant to save lives, as an unholy compromise with Castro, to provide instant legal sanctuary for those people escaping enforced communism.
The reason I don't like the law, is due to the "wet foot" aspect.
I guess we ought to send all those Vietnamese who came here in the Seventies back home, then? Silly me, I thought there was a difference between illegal immigrants and refugees.
