I SEE WHERE THE NATIONAL “HAND WRINGERS” ARE NOW EMBARKING UPON AN EFFORT TO “RESOLVE” THE CURRENT SITUATION REGARDING THE REPORTEDLY MORE THAN 10 MILLION ILLEGAL OCCUPANTS OF RESIDENCES AND JOBS IN THE U.S.A., WHICH ARE DEEMED SO VITAL TO THE COUNTRY'S SURVIVAL THAT THEY CANNOT BE “SENT PACKING” WITHOUT SERIOUSLY IMPAIRING THE ABILITY OF POLITICIANS TO GET REELECTED AGAIN.
IRONICALLY, THERE SEEMS TO BE NO PROBLEM WITH SPENDING BILLIONS OF DOLLARS AND FORFEITING COUNTLESS LIVES IN A GODLESS DESERT OF CHAOS, ALBEIT ATOP ESSENTIAL RESERVES OF OIL, IN RESPONSE TO A FEW INDIVIDUALS WEARING ROPES AND SANDALS WHO HAD ALSO TAKEN UP ILLEGAL RESIDENCE IN THIS COUNTRY IN ORDER TO FACILITATE THE FUTURE "IMMIGRATION" OF ROBE WEARERS. NOT TO WORRY! THE AUTHOR HAS NEVER BEEN SERIOUSLY CONCERNED ABOUT THE DESTRUCTION OF THIS COUNTRY BY OUTSIDE FORCES, SINCE THOSE “IN CHARGE” ARE DOING A MUCH MORE EFFECTIVE JOB WITH THEIR SELF SERVING PANDERING AND PROCRASTINATION IN THE FACE OF REAL PROBLEMS, BUT I DIGRESS.
THE NATURE OF THE “PROBLEM” SEEMS TO BE ONE OF SEMANTICS, RATHER THAN REALITY. WHILE THE AUTHOR DOES NOT KNOW UNDER WHICH IMMIGRATION LAWS PEOPLE OF COLOR ENTERED THIS COUNTRY IN CENTURIES PAST, ALBEIT AGAINST THEIR WILL, IT SEEMS OBVIOUS THAT ANY PERSON WHO DOES NOT ENTER THE COUNTRY LEGALLY IS AN “INVADER” AND IT IS SUGGESTED THAT THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT IS CONSTITUTIONALLY CHARGED WITH THE RESPONSIBILITY OF PROTECTING ITS CITIZENS FROM "ALL INVADERS", NOT JUST THE ONES IT CHOOSES. SINCE THE MAJORITY OF PEOPLE WHO “INVADED” OUR COUNTRY RECENTLY, APPARENTLY CAME SEEKING A BETTER LIFE, RATHER THAN SEEKING TO REEK HAVOC AND, SINCE THE ECONOMIC WELL BEING OF THE UNSCRUPULOUS ENTREPRENEURS WHO PROSPER FROM THE LABORS OF THESE "INVADERS" IS DEPENDENT ON A PLENTIFUL SUPPLY, THERE HAS BEEN LITTLE INCENTIVE TO "PROTECT" OUR NATION AND ITS CITIZENS FROM “INVADERS” OF THIS TYPE.
IT IS A WELL KNOWN FACT THAT ONE OF THE MAIN ACTIVITIES IN THE REELECTION PROCESS IS TO HAVE THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT PROVIDE SUSTENANCE (WELFARE) TO POTENTIAL VOTERS WHO RESIDED HERE BEFORE THE ARRIVAL OF THESE “INVADERS”, THEREFORE, THE SOCIETAL PARASITES WHO RECEIVE THIS LARGESS (AND MIGHT PROVIDE THE LABOR NEEDED IF THEY WERE LESS OBESE) HAVE LITTLE INCENTIVE TO DO THE MENIAL WORK NECESSARY TO SUPPORT THE LUXURIOUS LIFESTYLE OF THE “ENTREPRENEURS” WHO NOW PROFIT FROM THE “VOLUNTARY SERVITUDE” OF THESE ILLEGAL WORKERS . SO FAR, ANY ATTEMPT TO DISRUPT THE “SYSTEM” HAS BEEN UNIFORMLY OPPOSED BY THOSE WHO DO NOT WISH TO LOSE THEIR SOURCE OF VALUABLE PEONS AND THEIR LACKEYS IN WASHINGTON.
GIVEN THE STRATEGIC IMPORTANCE OF THEIR LABOR, NOT UNLIKE THE STRATEGIC IMPORTANCE OF PETROLEUM OWNED BY THOSE WITH ROBES AND SANDALS, THE “PEONS” SEEM TO HAVE DEVELOPED A RATIONALE THAT THEIR PHYSICAL PRESENCE ON OUR SOIL ENTITLES THEM TO MANY, IF NOT ALL, OF THE BENEFITS TO WHICH LEGAL RESIDENTS ARE ENTITLED, INCLUDING EDUCATION, HEALTH CARE, WELFARE, CHILD CARE, RETIREMENT, LICENSES TO DRIVE, OWNERSHIP OF PROPERTY AND BUSINESSES, AS WELL AS FREEDOM OF SPEECH AND ASSEMBLY TO PRESSURE THE GOVERNMENT TO GRANT THEM SUCH BENEFITS LEGALLY (SURRENDER?) RATHER THAN IN THE BREACH.
IT IS A WELL ESTABLISHED LEGAL MODUS OPERANDI TO PASS AS MANY LAWS AS POSSIBLE TO GARNER AS MUCH POWER AS POSSIBLE AT EVERY LEVEL OF GOVERNMENT AND THEN, TO “SELECTIVELY” USE THESE LAWS TO MAINTAIN THAT POWER BY “OPPRESSING” THOSE WHO CHALLENGE “THE SYSTEM” WHILE LOOKING THE OTHER WAY WHEN THEIR “FRIENDS” (PARTNERS IN CRIME?) CONVENIENTLY VIOLATE THE SAME ORDINANCES. TO THE EXTENT THAT THE “INVADERS” DO NOT CHALLENGE THOSE IN POWER, BUT ARE SUBSERVIENT AND PROVIDE USEFUL SERVICES, THEY HAVE BEEN “SELECTIVELY IGNORED” BY THOSE RESPONSIBLE FOR ENFORCING THE LAWS.
ADDING TO THE WITCHES BREW OF PEONS ENGAGED IN "VOLUNTARY SERVITUDE" TO THE "PARIAHS" WHO PAY “SLAVE WAGES”, WHILE AVOIDING ALL OF THE EXPENSES THAT LEGAL EMPLOYEES ENGENDER, THERE ARE THE "RABBLE-ROUSERS" WHO ADVOCATE, IN THE NAME OF HUMANITY, THE PROVISION OF A WIDE RANGE OF GOODS AND SERVICES TO THESE “INVADERS”, OBVIOUSLY AT OTHER CITIZENS’ EXPENSE, SINCE ONE DOES NOT EASILY ENCOUNTER ANY "RABBLE-ROUSERS" USING THEIR PERSONAL MONEY TO PAY FOR THE MEDICAL CARE, SCHOOLS, ADDITIONAL LAW ENFORCEMENT, ET.AL. REQUIRED TO KEEP THESE PEONS IN THEIR PLACE, MUCH LESS TAKING THE "INVADERS" INTO THEIR HOMES AND PROVIDING MUCH NEEDED HOUSING IN THIS SEDITIOUS ACTIVITY.
ADDITIONALLY, THERE IS A CURIOUSLY SELF DEFEATING “QUIRK” IN THE CONSTITUTION WHICH AUTOMATICALLY ENTITLES ANY BABY BORN ON NATIONAL SOIL THE RIGHTS OF FULL CITIZENSHIP REGARDLESS OF WHETHER THE PARENTS ARE HERE LEGALLY OR ILLEGALLY. IT IS SUGGESTED THAT A RATHER MORE SANE APPROACH INVOLVES ALLOWING ONLY THOSE BABIES BORN TO LEGAL RESIDENTS THAT "RIGHT" (PRIVILEGE?). IT WOULD CERTAINLY BE A GOOD “FIRST STEP” TOWARD RESOLVING ONE PART OF THE “PROBLEM”, ESPECIALLY IF IT WERE MADE RETROACTIVE, AT LEAST, TO THE LAST “AMNESTY” IN THE 80’S, WHICH WAS SUPPOSED TO AVOID FURTHER INVASIONS BY FOREIGNERS, REGARDLESS OF THEIR ORIGINS OR INTENTIONS.
THE COMBINATION OF BENEFITS RECEIVED BY CITIZENS LOATHE TO DO THE “HEAVY LIFTING” IN SOCIETY FOR PENURIOUS WAGES AND THE BENEFITS RECEIVED BY THE “INVADERS”, WHICH FAR EXCEED THE "ADVANTAGES" OF LIVING AND WORKING IN THEIR OWN COUNTRIES, WITHOUT ANY REAL RISK OF REPRISAL, HAS CREATED A GORDIAN KNOT OF IMMENSE PROPORTIONS FOR THOSE IN GOVERNMENT WHO PREFER TO OCCUPY THEIR TIME WITH LESS COMPLICATED MATTERS LEADING PRIMARILY TO THEIR PERSONAL ENRICHMENT AND REELECTION.
TO SAY THAT THE “SYSTEM” THAT PERMITTED THIS SITUATION TO DEVELOP IS “BROKEN” IS BANAL TO THE NTH DEGREE. FOR SOME REASON, THE LAWS RELATING TO IMMIGRATION SEEM DESIGNED TO EMPOWER LOW LEVEL BUREAUCRATS TO MAKE THE LIVES OF WORTHY PROSPECTIVE RESIDENTS MISERABLE, IF NOT CREATE OBSTACLES VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO OVERCOME. AT THE SAME TIME THIS NAME CHANGING AGENCY IS “SELECTIVELY DISCRIMINATING” AGAINST PERSONS OF VALUE TO OUR SOCIETY, WHILE THEY “SELECTIVELY IGNORE” THE COUNTLESS PERSONS ARRIVING ILLEGALLY, ON A DAILY BASIS, WHO BRING WITH THEM ONLY THEIR NEEDS AS POVERTY STRICKEN INDIVIDUALS AND THEIR LACK OF EDUCATION AND SKILLS ESSENTIAL TO THE WELL BEING OF ANY COUNTRY.
ONE HYPOTHESIZES THAT THERE IS LITTLE REAL DIFFERENCE BETWEEN "VOLUNTARY SERVITUDE" AND "INVOLUNTARY SERVITUDE", WHICH WAS DEEMED UNLAWFUL A NUMBER OF YEARS AGO. THE REALITY IS THAT THE INDIVIDUALS INVOLVED ARE CONSIGNED TO DO THE “COMMON LABOR” FOR LITTLE MORE THAN REMUNERATION SUFFICIENT TO PROVIDE THE FOOD AND CLOTHES NECESSARY TO RETURN THE NEXT DAY, WHILE CREATING GREAT WEALTH FOR THE “ABUSERS” (NOT “OWNERS” AS BEFORE) OF SUCH UNFORTUNATES, WHO BASICALLY TREAT THE PEONS AS "INDENTURED SERVANTS" TO THE “MASTER” (OR MISTRESS) OF THOSE BUSINESSES INVOLVED.
ONE MIGHT "RATIONALIZE" THAT SUCH BUSINESSES COULD NOT EXIST WITHOUT COPIOUS AMOUNTS OF HARD LABOR AT WAGES FAR BELOW WHAT LEGAL CITIZENS COULD COMMAND, TO SAY NOTHING OF THE COSTS OF PAYING LEGAL WAGES AND BENEFITS, PLUS THE COSTS SOCIAL SECURITY, TAXES, UNEMPLOYMENT AND DISABILITY INSURANCE, ET. AL., WITHOUT THE COST OF "GOODS" RISING TO A FAIR PRICE. WHETHER THIS "JUSTIFIES" THE PRESENT SYSTEM OF LAW BREAKING AND/OR LAW EVADING IS CERTAINLY DEBATABLE, BUT, IRRELEVANT TO THIS DISCUSSION, UNLESS ONE WANTS TO INJECT ECONOMICS INTO THE ARENA OF RIGHT AND WRONG. TO THE AUTHOR, USING ECONOMICS AS A BASIS FOR JUDGMENT IN THIS SITUATION WOULD SEEM ANALOGOUS TO THOSE WHO HELD THAT SLAVES WERE THE BEST ANSWER TO THE ECONOMIC WELFARE OF THE "OWNERS" AND THEREFORE WAS "JUSTIFIED". ONE HAD HOPED THAT THE QUESTIONS OF PROPRIETY REGARDING ABUSE OF HUMANS FOR ECONOMIC PURPOSES HAD BEEN RESOLVED, BUT, ONE COULD ERR, I SUPPOSE.
ONE SHOULD AT LEAST QUESTION THE INTELLIGENCE, IF NOT THE INTEGRITY, OF THOSE WHO FAIL TO PERCEIVE THE “REALITY" THAT ABUSE OF HUMAN RIGHTS FOR ECONOMIC GAIN RAISES SUBSTANTIALLY THE SAME MORAL ISSUE THAT EXISTED IN THE PAST, WHEN THE GREAT PLANTATIONS COULD NOT HAVE SURVIVED WITHOUT THE “COPIOUS LABOR” OF ILLEGALS OF COLOR, WHO RECEIVED ABOUT THE SAME REMUNERATION AS THE PRESENT DAY "INVADERS" IN ORDER TO RETURN TO WORK THE NEXT DAY. ANY UNDERSTANDING OF THE REAL ISSUES MIGHT LEAD THOSE WITH A MODICUM OF INTELLIGENCE TO DISCOUNT THE ECONOMIC CONSEQUENCES OF ENDING THE PRESENT "SYSTEM" AND FACE THE "REALITY" OF IT.
IT IS NOT DIFFICULT HARD TO UNDERSTAND WHY THE "INVADERS" WOULD BE INTERESTED IN BETTERING THEIR LOT, JUST AS THOSE LIVING IN "INVOLUNTARY SERVITUDE" WISHED TO BETTER THEIRS, BY SEEKING PROTECTION AND BENEFITS FROM VARIOUS GOVERNMENTAL AND SOCIAL AGENCIES TO AUGMENT THEIR MEAGER EARNINGS. WHETHER ONE ARGUES ABOUT THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THOSE WHO WERE BROUGHT HERE AGAINST THEIR WILL OR THOSE WHO CAME VOLUNTARILY, BUT ILLEGALLY, THE DIFFERENCE IS LITTLE MORE THAN AN EXERCISE IN SEMANTICS. THEIR FATES WERE/ARE EERILY SIMILAR AND THEIR CAUSE IS EERILY JUST. AS WAS TRUE IN THE 19TH CENTURY, HOW THESE INDIVIDUALS GOT HERE IS EQUALLY IRRELEVANT TO THE FACT THAT THEY ARE HERE AND ARE PROVIDING VALUABLE SERVICES TO “CERTAIN” INDIVIDUALS, WHILE, AT THE SAME TIME, DEVOURING VITAL RESOURCES PROVIDED BY THE TAXPAYING CITIZENS AND BUSINESSES WHO DO NOT UTILIZE SUCH LABOR. THOSE WHO FEEL THAT THE SITUATION REQUIRES MITIGATION HAVE THE LOGIC OF POWERFUL ARGUMENTS ON THEIR SIDE.
SADLY, THE “REALITY” IS NOT IN QUESTION. HOWEVER, THE SPURIOUS DEBATES, AT VARIOUS LEVELS OF GOVERNMENT, SEEM MORE ABOUT HOW TO UTILIZE THAT “REALITY” TO MAXIMIZE PROFITS AND GAIN REELECTION, RATHER THAN SEARCHING FOR ANY REASONABLE WAY TO ASSIMILATE THOSE WHO RISKED EVERYTHING IN HOPES OF ACHIEVING A BETTER LIFE FOR THEMSELVES AND THEIR NUMEROUS PROGENY. AS WITH ALL GORDIAN SITUATIONS, THE EVENTS LEADING TO THEIR CREATION CANNOT BE UNDONE. AND, NOT UNLIKE THE ACTION OF ALEXANDER THE GREAT, SOCIETAL KNOTS MUST BE “CUT” AND THAT PROCESS CANNOT BE DONE WITHOUT INFLICTING SERIOUS CONSEQUENCES UPON THE PARTICIPANTS. BOTH THE "PEONS" AND THE "PARIAHS" MUST PAY, UNLESS THE “PIG IN THE PYTHON” IS ALLOWED TO DESTROY ITS UNWARY HOST. (A L O N G S T O R Y)
SINCE THERE DO NOT SEEM TO BE ANY “ALEXANDERS” RESIDING IN THE HALLS OF GOVERNMENT, NEITHER THE "PEONS" OR THE "PARIAHS" SEEM IN IMMINENT DANGER OF LOSING THEIR PRECARIOUS POSITIONS. IT IS HARD TO OVERESTIMATE THE IMPOTENCE OF THOSE CHARGED WITH GOVERNING, AS MANY EMERGING NATIONS, SINCE THE ADVENT OF THE KOREAN “POLICE ACTION” AND THE CHARADE OF NATIONS UNITED IN GUARDING WORLD PEACE AND FOSTERING PROSPERITY, HAVE CORRECTLY PERCEIVED. THE “POWER” OF OUR NATION, AS CORRUPTED BY THOSE AT THE CONTROLS OF WHATEVER POWER THAT EXISTED HAS BEEN DISSIPATED IN THE AVOIDANCE OF HARD DECISIONS IN ECONOMICS, NATIONAL SECURITY, DOMESTIC TRANQUILITY, ET. AL. AND HAS BEEN USURPED BY THE MUNDANE AND INCONSEQUENTIAL ACTIVITIES OF THOSE MORE INTERESTED IN PERSONAL PROSPERITY AND REELECTION THAN IN THE WELFARE OF THE NATION, BUT, THAT IS ANOTHER SUBJECT.
RETURNING TO THE SUBJECT OF IMMIGRATION, BOTH LEGAL AND ILLEGAL, ONE COULD HOPE, BUT, NOT EXPECT, THAT THE LEADERS (IF I MAY USE THE TERM LOOSELY) WOULD MERCIFULLY ELIMINATE THE PRESENT SYSTEM AND BUREAUCRACY, AS THEY SHOULD DO WITH NUMEROUS OTHER SYSTEMS , INCLUDING TAXATION, AGRICULTURE, HEALTH CARE (OR LACK THEREOF), NATIONAL SECURITY AND ENVIRONMENTAL IRRESPONSIBILITY, AMONG OTHERS, AND DEAL WITH THE REALITY THAT THIS COUNTRY NEEDS GOOD WORKERS AND DOES NOT NEED ADDITIONAL BURDENS UPON THE FALTERING RESOURCES OF THIS ONCE GREAT COUNTRY.
TO THAT END, THOSE WHO ARE HERE ILLEGALLY AND ARE GAINFULLY EMPLOYED MIGHT BE "PERMANENTLY IDENTIFIED AND MONITORED" TO ENSURE THAT THEY CONTRIBUTE TO THE GREATER GOOD OF THE COUNTRY.WHILE "BRANDING" SEEMS A BIT EXTREME, TECHNOLOGY NOW PERMITS SUCH MONITORING, ALTHOUGH IT IS CERTAINLY CONTROVERSIAL, UNLESS ONE REMEMBERS THE PIG. IT IS SUGGESTED THAT BIOMETRICS PERMIT EQUALLY EFFICIENT IDENTIFICATION AND THAT SURVIVAL TRUMPS THOSE WHO HAVE NO “RIGHTS” TO OBJECT TO SUCH DRACONIAN ACTIONS . TO THOSE WHO DO OBJECT, IT IS SUGGESTED THAT THEY ARE MORE THAN WELCOME TO RETURN TO THE LAND OF THEIR ORIGIN.
THOSE REMAINING (E.G. ILLEGAL INVADERS) WHO ARE NOT “CLAIMED” BY AN EMPLOYER ENGAGED IN LEGITIMATE BUSINESSES AND EMPLOYING SUCH PERSONS LEGALLY, ARE NOT THOUGHT TO PRESENT AN UNMANAGEABLE NUMBER IN TERMS OF DEPORTATION WITHOUT “DUE PROCESS”. IT IS SUGGESTED THAT, IF ONE IS HERE ILLEGALLY, THEY ARE RIGHTFULLY CLASSIFIED AS AN “INVADER” AND "INVADERS" ARE NOT THOUGHT TO POSSESS ANY “RIGHTS”, SUCH AS THEIR "DAY IN COURT", WHICH ONLY SERVES TO COMPLICATE THE PROCESS AND ENRICH THE VULTURES WHO PREY ON THE MISFORTUNE OF OTHERS.
HAVING "RESOLVED THE "PROBLEM" OF ADULT INVADERS, ONE MUST THEN CONSIDER THE PLIGHT OF ILLEGAL MINORS. IT IS SUGGESTED THAT CHILDREN OF THOSE DULY (NOW LEGALLY) EMPLOYED UNDER THE AFOREMENTIONED CONDITIONS, BUT, STILL LIVING HERE "ILLEGALLY", E.G. THEY DID NOT GO THROUGH THE OPERANT PROCESS OF IMMIGRATION, SHOULD BE ALLOWED TO CONTINUE ON THE PATH OF EDUCATION THAT THEIR PARENTS (AS DETERMINED BY DNA, IF NECESSARY) RISKED THEIR LIVES TO PROVIDE. SHOULD THESE STUDENTS FAIL TO CONTINUE IN THEIR EDUCATION UNTIL GRADUATION, THEY HAVE NO REASON TO COMPLAIN IF THEY ARE SUMMARILY SHIPPED BACK TO THEIR NATIVE COUNTRIES, (WITHOUT DUE PROCESS, OF COURSE).
ONE SHOULD NOT BE SURPRISED IF THOSE COUNTRIES ARE NOT OVERLY PLEASED AT SUCH ACTION, HOWEVER, THE PROBLEM COULD HAVE BEEN AVOIDED IF THEIR RESIDENTS HAD NOT "INVADED" THE UNITED STATES. PERHAPS THEY WOULD PREFER A DECLARATION OF WAR AGAINST THEIR GOVERNMENTS, WHICH IS THE NORMAL RESPONSE OF ONE COUNTRY TO ANOTHER THAT IS INVADED BY THE CITIZENS OF THAT COUNTRY. HOWEVER, GIVEN THE INCOMPETENCE OF OUR GOVERNMENT IN INVADING OTHER COUNTRIES AND OVERTHROWING THEIR GOVERNMENTS, PERHAPS, IT WOULD BE MORE PRUDENT TO SIMPLY DISCOUNT THE "FEELINGS" OF COUNTRIES WHO PERMITTED THE PROBLEM TO OCCUR, RATHER THAN ACQUIRE ANOTHER TERRITORY TO MISMANAGE .
OBVIOUSLY, THE LOSS OF GAINFUL EMPLOYMENT AND/OR FAILURE TO “PLAY BY THE RULES” AS IN REGISTERING; BEING IDENTIFIABLE AS ILLEGAL ALIENS; PAYING TAXES; OBEYING THE LAW AND NOT CAUSING TROUBLE, SHOULD MEAN IMMEDIATE DEPORTATION. THE PROVISION OF SERVICES AND/OR FINANCIAL AID TO “INVADERS” SHOULD BE STRICTLY FORBIDDEN, ON THE OTHER SIDE, THERE SHOULD BE SUFFICIENT CIVIL PENALTIES TO DISCOURAGE LEGAL RESIDENTS FROM "AIDING AND ABETTING" THE INVADERS. IT IS SUGGESTED THAT FORFEITURE OF WHATEVER PROPERTY THEY HAVE, MUCH AS DRUG DEALERS FORFEIT THEIR PROPERTY FOR DEALING DRUGS, SHOULD SUFFICE. THE AUTHOR HYPOTHESIZES THAT LESS INCENTIVE FOR SEDITIOUS ACTS, ON BOTH SIDES, WILL, IN FACT, LEAD TO LESSENING THE "PROBLEM". VAMOS A VER.
WHILE ONE CANNOT CONDONE THE REWARDING OF ILLEGAL BEHAVIOR (UNLESS ONE WISHES TO HAVE MORE OF IT), NEITHER SHOULD ONE FORGET THAT WANTING THE OPPORTUNITY FOR A BETTER LIFE AND BEING WILLING TO WORK FOR IT, IS WHAT THIS COUNTRY WAS FOUNDED ON. ALTHOUGH THAT PREMISE IS BEING SEVERELY TESTED TODAY, IT DOES NOT SEEM TO HAVE OUTLIVED ITS USEFULNESS. THEREFORE, SOME METHOD OF PROVIDING ENTRY TO THOSE WHO ARE SPONSORED BY LEGITIMATE EMPLOYERS, WITHOUT REGARD TO “QUOTAS” WHICH ARE ARBITRARY AND DISCRIMINATORY, IS PROBABLY THE ONLY WAY TO AVOID THE CONTINUED “INVASION” OF OUR COUNTRY BY THOSE WHOSE DESIRE TO PARTICIPATE IN OUR SOCIETY ON SOME BASIS. WITH A SYSTEM OF SPONSORED WORKERS, THEIR IDENTITY AND BACKGROUNDS CAN BE VERIFIED BEFORE THEY ARRIVE. THE ARBITRARY REJECTION OF THOSE WITH CRIMINAL RECORDS OR THOSE WHO ARE DEEMED A THREAT TO THE HEALTH AND WELFARE OF CITIZENS, DOES NOT SEEM UNREASONABLE. THE PROCESS OF IMMIGRATION IS INTENDED TO PROTECT THE VIABILITY OF THE COUNTRY, NOT TO UNDERMINE IT BY ADMITTING THE AGED AND INFIRM OR INCOMPETENT WHO LACK EDUCATION AND/OR USEFUL SKILLS THAT WOULD PREVENT THEM FROM BECOMING PRODUCTIVE MEMBERS OF THIS COUNTRY.
OBVIOUSLY, THIS "RESOLUTION" OF THE IMMEDIATE PROBLEM IS NOT SUGGESTED AS AN “AUTOMATIC” GUARANTEE OF FUTURE PERMANENT RESIDENT STATUS OR CITIZENSHIP, ALTHOUGH IT MIGHT BE A “STEP” ALONG THE WAY. THESE “WORKERS” ARE ESSENTIALLY HERE ON “INDEFINITE PROBATION” WITHOUT OTHER RIGHTS. HOWEVER, IF THEY WISH TO CHANGE THEIR STATUS, BASED ON THEIR ECONOMIC AND EDUCATIONAL SUCCESS SUCH AS LEARNING ENGLISH AND BECOMING MORE THAN “SPONSORED” WORKERS, BY GOING THROUGH THE FORMAL IMMIGRATION PROCESS, IT IS SUGGESTED THAT THIS DESIRE AND CONDUCT SHOULD BE PROFOUNDLY RESPECTED.
IN ADDITION TO THE IMMEDIATE 10 MILLION OR SO PROBLEMS, THERE STILL NEEDS TO BE A MORE DIRECT PATH TO ALLOW WORTHY INDIVIDUALS TO IMMIGRATE TO THIS COUNTRY BASED ON THEIR EDUCATION, ECONOMIC SELF SUFFICIENCY, ABILITY TO SPEAK THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE AND A PROVEN WAY TO PARTICIPATE PRODUCTIVELY IN OUR SOCIETY. THIS MIGHT BE CONSIDERED A “FAST TRACK” TO PERMANENT LEGAL RESIDENCE AND/OR CITIZENSHIP, AS OPPOSED TO THE RESOLUTION OF THE PROBLEM OF "INVADERS", WITHOUT ANY QUALIFICATIONS FOR RESIDENCE OTHER THAN THEIR ABILITY TO FILL THE LOW LEVEL “HOLES” IN OUR WORKFORCE.
THERE IS NO DOUBT IN THE MIND OF THE AUTHOR THAT MANY HIGHLY QUALIFIED PEOPLE WOULD BE INTERESTED IN PARTICIPATING IN OUR SOCIETY AND ECONOMY, GIVEN A REASONABLE WAY TO DO SO. HOWEVER, FEW PEOPLE OF VALUE WISH TO BE SUBJECTED TO THE INDIGNITIES OF OUR PRESENT IMMIGRATION SYSTEM, OR FORCED TO DEAL WITH THE LUDDITES, BOTH HERE AND ABROAD, WHO POPULATE THE OFFICES WHILE PERPETUATING THE WELL DESERVED "UGLY" REPUTATION OF THE AMERICAN GOVERNMENT.
REMEMBER, ALTHOUGH THERE ARE LOGICAL ALTERNATIVES AVAILABLE TO ADDRESS THE GORDIAN PROBLEMS ASSOCIATED WITH THE “INVADERS” OF OUR SOCIETY, IT IS SUGGESTED THAT THEY WILL NOT BE ENACTED, UNLESS THE LILLIPUTIANS OF GOVERNMENT CAN SEE SOME WAY TO BENEFIT THEMSELVES AND BE PERPETUALLY REELECTED OR RETAIN THEIR PLUSH OFFICES BEHIND THE CLOSED DOORS THAT PROTECT THEM FROM HAVING TO DEAL WITH THE REAL WORLD. SADLY, SOME "PROBLEMS" ARE BEYOND THE PURVIEW OF REASON.
ENJOY!
