The state of Arizona has trumped the trashy liberal mentality of some by enacting a new immigration law. The responses of our president, CNN, the Hispanic organizations and the unwashed masses of effected persons, are predictable and predictably motivated solely by self interest. This is the United States of America, citizenship with a job is a central historical privilege of our way of life. It is the dream of the rest of the world but this gives no one the right to steal in and destroy the opportunities of we citizens. This is not a racist opinion but one shared by every nation on the face of the earth.
The historical linkage of our capitalistic economy to legal immigration is fundamental to our identity as a nation but we the people say enough is enough to this new kind of immigration. The illegal policies allowed by our politicians are insane in a sane kind of way. Capitalism values cheap labor and the control of labor costs, not the integrity of our borders. Without the lowest possible wages on the bottom of the labor force, wages for all are prone to rise. Big business and the Chamber of Commerce own our politicians and they therefore promote illegal immigration.
Hence President Obama wants to see enacted a get out of jail free card for all who are here illegally, all their distant relatives in the four corners of the earth, all the welfare babies dumped on the system, all the drug runners, the gangsters, the murders, the kidnappers and violent felons terrorizing our country. Arizona
has onerously suffered from these crimes. As a nation, we are truly insane to allow this injustice. Insanity has been defined as continuing to do what hasn’t worked in the past. Have we not learned from 30 years of failure? What is required is the enforcement of laws already on the books.
Defend the integrity of our borders, prosecute anyone who hires an illegal alien, prosecute fraud upon our Social Security system, make it easy for all employers to check a persons immigration status, check the immigration status of all persons encountered by the police and for legal citizens “to turn in” illegal workers and their employers. Citizens bend over no longer. The time has arrived to protect our integrity as a sovereign nation. Admittedly,this does sounds a bit like big brother. However, shame on the responsible parties for making it unavoidable.
At least there are a few Arizona politicians who have gotten the message, safety and opportunity for citizens and a ride home to your own country if you are here illegally. Thank you Governor Jan Brewer and the politicians of Arizona for forging a possible way of escape from the current trashy politics of this great country.
