Yet what other country are they dying to get in again???? So we may not be fucking great, but I guess by your hypothesis, every other country is that fucking bad.

dmk

There are immigrants worldwide. It isn't unique to America. But here our neighbors to our south have it so much worse than us. Want to solve our immigration problem? Help them make their homeland better. But we don't seem to give a shit about our own people... you people on this board have convinced me of this. So why would we want to help them?

Pathetic views coming from an isolated populous.
You just made the point I think many of us are saying. We have to deal with our own problems, we can not focus on thiers. It is up to them to solve thier problems. They are just as capable as we are.

The problem is this: we could help our own, and have enough left over to help them. We choose not to.
