I wonder how long it will be before residents of California, Texas, Arizona and New Mexico start having rockets with Venezuelan, Iranian and Syrian markings landing in their swimming pools?
We need to conquer Mexico (again) and sort it out. Maybe move the border to the Veracruz-Acapulco line (more defensible, fewer people on the other side).
I shudder at the thought of having even MORE angry Mexicans on our side of the border, though.....
Mexico is a huge problem, much bigger than most seem to realize - and we have no Mexico policy.
Since most governments operate reactively, I suppose it will require a rather messy disaster of some sort before an effective Mexico policy is implemented.
Where have you been? Of course we have a policy. 100% of the politicians in the democrat party along with several republicans including John McCain have lectured us on how are nation would completely fall apart if we didn't have Mexico's rural poor who are mostly illiterate indians running around our country at will. They are doing all the $5 per hour jobs that come with no benefits that Americans refuse to do. How else can that landscaping company owner from NJ who employs illegals afford to buy a home in Mendham or Livingston? Or what about the construction company owner from Charlotte, NC who needs to add a 9th bedroom and 5th bathroom onto his own Mcmansion going to get the cash from for this project? If he/she paid a decent salary along with benefits to an American citizen he/she would be stuck with only 8 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms for their castle. The NJ landscaping company owner would be stuck with the indignity of residing in Wayne or Roselle Park or may have to save money for a couple more years before the move up to a “better community.”
Remember its not amnesty because well, McCain and others say so. “Damn it we are going to make them pay a $5000 fine.” Who would have ever thought that US citizenship would become so cheap.
Don't forget that the power structure in Mexico are the descendent's of Spanish conquistadors. For the most part they hate the indians and the mestizos. The more that leave Mexico the better. Just make sure you send back to Mexico most of the money you earn in Yankeetown gringoville USA.
