Simple fact. They have no functioning government at this time which accounts for the crime and the lack of schooling. Theres no reason for that except for the fact that corruption is the norm and not the rarity. Haiti has the issues which is why the whole world had to come to their aid after the earthquake. Their government was unable to provide any assistance at all.
This is not racism but recognizing the dysfunctions in these countries institutions. I am all for people donating whatever it is they wish to any legitimate cause,anywhere in the world. I am 100% opposed to my government telling me that i must give to these people or that i must accept illegals into my country.
At the end of the day,our government has screwed up the entire issue and to absolve themselves of blame tell us they can’t do anything at all about it. When looking at the sums spent i dare say that it would be immensely cheaper to remove them rather than giving them of our hard earned countries wealth.
One last point. Anchor babies no more. We cannot afford to be the health care provider for whomever decides to plop themselves within our borders. If they,our government,is intent on containing the cost of health care this is the place to start. No free care for non citizens and watch how fast the bill goes down. Once passed,with no restrictions on who is able to receive care,the next step will be to legitimize the illegals.
Dear Wiggen, take a step back and look at this. who benefits the most from illegals? of course the business community (big and small business). Business is in bed with the pols, business funds the election and reelection campaigns. thats why the borders will never be closed. The U.S. has to compete in the global market against countrys like china, japan, Taiwan, pacific rim countries and south America ect. and these countries pay pennies on the dollar for wages. in china the majority of people live on 20 to 40 dollars a month. How long can America compete on the global market and pay us middle class wages? That is why the borders are still open. Dont get me wrong, i want the borders closed and find a way for America to continue to pay the wages that they do, and i believe we can find a way.......................
