Immigration reform has reared its ugly head again, each time I it does I ask myself why not enforce the laws on the books first, then adjust any laws that need to be?
This is just like the Federal Government instead of enforcing the laws on the books, they think something new and improved has to be done. When someone offers the line well the laws don’t work, they don’t understand that you have to fund the law in order for it to work. There are a lot of laws on the books that are not enforced because when it comes time to go through the appropriations committee, they don’t get funded. Congress can pass laws till their tired of voting on them, until the laws are funded the law is not worth spending the money to even print it.
I am tired of both parties thinking that the American People are idiots. We need to stop being the “Worlds Savior” and start taking care of things at home.
If we wish to be able to help other country’s and other people in the future we need to first take care of ourselves. Until we do so this is just like putting a band aid on a gun shot wound.
Make no bones about it, this is not a racial issue but an economic one. No other country has borders that are so wide open and with so few penalties for entering the country illegally.
