We've decided our blog topic for our first "real" show is going to be immigration. We're hoping all the hosts will post a blog on this subject, and we hope to use it as a discussion on Saturday's Show.
----------
Part of me wants to really take a look at the current immigration bill that is pending in congress. I mean if the Democrats and Republicans both hate it, so doesn't that probably make it good for America.
From what I've heard, I don't really think so. Leave it to both parties to agree to a solution that's likely to be worse than the problem.
As a libertarian (notice the small l), I believe in a relatively open border. I'd like to know who comes in, don't get me wrong we should fix this problem. We need to do everything we can to secure the border.
We need to crack-down on businesses that hire illegal aliens. We need to stop the "stop and release" strategy that our border guard is forced to implement (border agents are going to jail for doing their job), but the most important thing we can do is make it easier to get here legally.
What do you think would happen to the inflation index if we didn't have the immigrant labor? People need to get over the whole "the government is going to cut my taxes if we don't have to pay for illegals having babies anymore" mentality. The government is not going to give any of that money back to you....Not going to happen. Not with this government in charge.
We need to make it easier for a hard-working laborer to get here legally. If they go through the trouble of getting here illegally, don't you think they'd come here legally if they could? Of course, there are exceptions to this statement, but I believe we generally get the best of the best of people trying to escape a bad situation. The lazy ones never make the trip.
Would a armed 40' wall keep you out of America?
