RE: Illegal immigrants cost the U.S.

in #discussion6 years ago

You easily want to forget past and even present transgressions that have led to the migration crisis of today, much of it self-inflicted. The rule of law is not always correct and is not always the perfect path, especially when it comes to feeding your family.
Pray that you never find yourself in a dire situation where the "LAW" keeps you from feeding your family, for that day your moral compass will be tested for it's true direction.

Sort:  

Yes, the horrors of Communism and ignorance--by far the greatest elements of poverty in impoverished nations--is immense and must be opposed.

Open borders and global redistribution of wealth by force (or by criminal action) is no part of the answer, however.

You can't blame imperialism on communism, especially american imperialism. The greed for the almighty dollar from both past and present generations of American imperialism has exacerbated the economic woes of many countries the world over but none more so than in its own hemisphere, creating the need for families to traverse hundreds if not sometimes thousands of miles in order to have a better quality of life, a quality of life which you so cherish as to not wish to share it with those who's lives you and your ancestors have irrevocably changed forever. You admonish and judge those attempting to feed themselves and their loved ones under near slave labor conditions, and your simple answer is, "the markets will adjust in price for that." Coldly, callously and inhumanely without a forethought as to how these sad ever poor ever hardworking lives came to be.
Of course the easy answer to pass the buck, it is not my or my country's problem when for the most past it has been you and your country's support of imperialism directly and indirectly.
Think about the Walton family, billionaires over and over, and how poorly they treat the American worker, and now just imagine what they do to their employees in 3rd world countries, or rather what they don't do for non-american employees.
Oddly enough criminal actions have worked wonders for the Clinton's and the Trump's and many of the rich elite.

You make many good points, and I agree with everything except your conclusion that the American people should all be made to pay for the crimes of our nearly-omnipotent criminal elite (with their unlimited wealth and military resources) by joining other nations in a race to the bottom-- opening our borders, and presumably ending in a world government that is even worse than Washington, D.C. under the "Banana Republic" makers of our past.

What we all should be doing is uniting against global tyranny and doing our best to overthrow LOCAL TYRANTS if we have the means to do so.

"You can't blame imperialism on communism..." I do, btw, blame the former for the latter.

Yes tyranny, even economic tyranny should be eradicated the world over. And the World was created by the power of the Universe (for some by God) and nowhere did this force or God put a physical border or deny anyone access to the bounties of earth. All those ideas and creations are man made, created with the intention to subjugate.
I disagree that allowing people to partake of the Earth's bounty will be a "race to the bottom." You give immigrants of today no credit, especially when the historical proof is that past immigrants are what made this Country Great, and not just Trump's immigrant ancestors.
Read this post I made a while ago....I can guarantee you that no one surviving patient wants this once deported and "illegal" doctor back across the border. The border Jumping Doctor
The point being that by now denying America the diversity it has received for many years through its immigrant past (think Einstein, Pulitzer, Tesla etc) it could be denying tomorrow's great scientist or genius or border-life-saving doctor. Diversity is what has made the human race stronger and able to outlast other hominids.

  1. Nations were ordained by God and mentioned prominently throughout Scripture.

  2. I give LEGAL immigration credit for many things. Illegal immigration gets credit for NOTHING from me.

  3. Diversity is what is KILLING America, not helping. Those LEGAL immigrants you mentioned all came here hoping to become part of America and the American entrepreneurial environment. They weren't coming here seeking to overthrow America's institutions and to kill Americans as are many illegal immigrants. Commonality and brotherhood is what makes nations great, not "diversity."

@mepatriot
I have yet to see an actual God built border or wall....

You should probably stop eating half the food you and your family consume, and I imagine a good portion of other goods and services that are currently sustained by "illegal" immigration, since you give them no credit. Or is that something you are willing to overlook in order to maintain excess weight, a large lawn, fast food and cheap prices ?
If "illegals" were out to kill "Americans," white Americans would all be dead by now.
Commonality and brotherhood is what the Nazi's claimed too....that didn't work out to well.
Human genes do not lie, diversity is what has kept the human race alive. Any high school or university biology class will second this thought on diversity.

  1. God has established ALL the nations. Here is a link with major references to God being the establisher of nations: https://bible.knowing-jesus.com/topics/God-Sets-Boundaries

  2. Half the food I eat?...lol..half the food I eat comes from my garden and from hunting and fishing. I rarely buy vegetables from out of state.

  3. If illegals started killing Americans in even larger numbers (and what has "white" got to do with anything?) they would all be arrested and or dead within a week.

  4. Again, you conflate apples with oranges. Being a patriot and believing in Constitutional republican government and secure borders does not make you a Nazi. I am opposed to internationalism, racism and expansionism, and the Nazis were FOR those things.

  5. Human genes have nothing to do with the U.N./globalist diversity agenda. Just because the liberals are in charge of our education system at present and teaching such nonsense does not make it true.

and on the note of scripture.... I bet you favor the old testament versus the new testament, right?

Nope.

Look, I am not going to convince a committed globalist, and am not interested in doing so. You are free to believe whatever you like, but I am a patriot, and will remain so. If you come here illegally you deserve to be deported. END OF STORY.
