Immigration

Whatever happened to "give me your tired, etc."? It's one thing to say that people should enter this country legally, but it's an entirely different matter to do so. Many of the tired and oppressed don't have the education to go through the intricacies of the immigration process. The immigration process provides a nice living for a lot of attorneys. Let's face it. We don't want the tired, we want the smart, the rich, the well connected. All our arguments about making the people who are here go back home and apply for American citizenship legally is a cover-up for the fact that most people in this country do not want any poor people in their neighborhood. Well it looks like we are not going to be able to avoid having poor people in our neighborhood because if the economy keeps falling apart we will be the poor people in our neighborhood and it will serve us right.
