When I think about what's going on at the Southern Border I just don't see what the big deal is. People who flee their home countries to find a better future is how America was built. We also don't let the majority of them into the country.
It seems that the number of people fleeing their home countries and trying to enter has increased. I wonder if people turned back at the border actually return home or if they come back time after time?
Still while some media outlets are making this into what they hope will be a major issue, I just don't see much difference from previous administrations. Some of the policies are a bit more humane and I think some immigrants are allowed to apply for entry while staying in this country but I don't know all the details primarily because I don't care.
I haven't seen them doing anything different than previous immigrant populations. They come here take menial jobs and give their family a better life. Do they drain our resources? I think most studies show they contribute more than they take, especially after the initial year or so.
Unemployment is this country is low and likely to go lower as we power up infrastructure repair.
We need to consider our immigration rules and continue to be the shining light on the hill that attracts the oppressed people of the world.
It is who we are.
