re: Worried about cheaters?

I can't blame anyone who crosses the border because they want to work. They have families to feed too.


crosses the border because they want to work

robs a bank

pockets a $50 from the register when closing out

falsely accuses their boss of raping them

plants drugs in his manager's car and then calls the cops

etc. ad infinitum.

Feeding families just doesn't cut it. Mexico has food, jobs and schools. If they find that they are scarce - maybe they shouldn't have seven mouths to feed. Maybe they should take responsibility for their lives, obey the law and educate themselves so that they can turn their nation from a global parasite that sucks other nations blood to a place of pride which provides for their needs and is capable of helping others - just like the USA.

They need a plane load of Ayn Rand's Atlas Shrugged (Spanish language edition, naturally) far more than they need a handout or a temporary job weeding a yard. One leads to self-sufficiency and the latter leads to insecurity, poverty and being exploited.

And to think you insinuate I am the one who truly lacks compassion for the poor's plight.
