Mexican, Cuban, Peruvian or frikkin' Martian, we cannot solve all the world's problems by moving the entire dissident population of all the turd-world countries here. I'm sorry if it sounds mean, but the answer to all the world's problems is not, "Move to America". We just cannot do it.

-------------------------

That's a separate issue, but one that should be examined. If left to thir own devices half the world would come here looking for a better life. There is no way of accommodating them here. They need to build a better life where they are. Additionally, many of the people who would come here bring the attitudes that have made life less better where they were and those attitudes suck the life out of the system here.

Yep. They often come here to escape the oppression that their culture enabled back home, then get homesick for that same culture and use it to drag ours down into the gutter. It's sad and all too common, but I can't say I blam them.

The bottom like is, though, that we cannot just absorb every unhappy person in the world into the United States. If they cannot build a safe, clean, prosperous and fair society in their own homelands, then how can we expect them to act like they belong in ours?

That's BS. I have yet to meet a first-generation Cuban immigrant who thinks Communism is hot stuff.
