So, I was reading the other day in my local paper about Bush visting the Mexican border, watching Border Patrol do their jobs, etc. He had various suggestions on how to make the border more secure.
He had ideas like tons more agents, all kinds of infrared devices so they can see in the dark better, all this Mission Impossible bullcrap that would cost the taxpayers billions of dollars and do nothing useful.
Quotes like "infrared devices would help border agents be more effective at night, help spot folks trying to cross the border under cover of darkness."
How do you keep an eye on a couple thousand miles with a few hundred night vision goggles?
These people are coming over the border to work supposedly, right?
Hire them to build the damn wall.
A 20 FOOT HIGH, 10 FOOT THICK WALL. THE FREAKIN CHINESE FIGURED THAT OUT THOUSANDS OF YEARS AGO. LET'S CATCH UP TO YEAR 500bc CHINESE TECHNOLOGY.
He doesn't really want to keep illegal immigrants out. If he did that who would do the lawns at his ranch?
I don't buy, not for one second, that these people "do what American's wont". I have a real problem with that. The real translation of that is "These people will do what American's won't for that amount of money".This labor is artificially keeping prices lower and wages lower. It's wrecking havoc on the health care system, the prison system, the welfare system and bunches of other "systems".
These people actually OPPRESS the rest of us and cap our pay. I think the Liberals should see that for what the effect is, increasing the gap between the rich and poor and making the middle class smaller.
Nowhere on the Statue of Liberty does it say "Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to breathe free so that I can financially support them, feed them, house them, and provide health care for them."
Im ready to start an initiaitive of soliciting aggragate companies to donate the Cement FREE of charge to the project if bush would just give the damn go ahead.
im putting my soapbox away now, frustrating to watch incomptetance.
