America remains an "attractive nuisance." Despite all the effort dedicated to border enforcement--we've more than double the amount of Border Patrol officers in recent years--we continue to be overwhelmed by illegal immigrants. The press attributes so-called amnesty bill as creating the incentive for new waves to enter the country through the southern border. Many are children. We were deporting in large numbers, but since the 2012 election, that has stopped. http://www.breitbart.com/Big-Government/2014/06/10/Report-Illegals-Waving-at-Agents-to-Detain-Them-Near-Border-Hoping-for-Permit-to-Remain-in-US
If we want to maintain a measure of prosperity for the working and middle class, we must control the immigration flow. The constant downward pressure on wages is what the bill supporters want. But a ray of hope: the Republican majority leader ric Cantor just lost his primary to an outsider pledging to defeat the bill. Maybe the GOP is starting to wake up from its suicide pact.
