Comments on: Is This Country for Sale? http://morewhat.com/wordpress/is-this-country-for-sale/ To build consensus on issues Sat, 11 Feb 2012 18:25:13 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.0.3 by: Marcus http://morewhat.com/wordpress/is-this-country-for-sale/#comment-4546 Fri, 18 May 2007 00:04:18 +0000 http://morewhat.com/wordpress/is-this-country-for-sale/#comment-4546 Fear grips my emotions as I heard the news today about the compromise Bush made with the imperial Senate. I believe immigrants should have the privilege to come to our country to make a new life IF they make a contribution to a better country, yet amnesty to numerous illegals is wrong because they broke the law to come to the U.S. They come for one thing and one thing only, which is to drain society of its best resources. It is like awarding a criminal for wrong doing. I am not a racist as I love everyone, but the bargain compromises the law. The authencity of the law is worthless when a government makes a deal. The solution is close the borders and limit access to immigrants. As a middle class person, I feel the squeeze of someone from another country taking my job, my money, and my hope for a better life from me. You will eventually have a society that has an upper class and one for lower class. Where is the middle class? Say 'no' to compromise.
