It’s really too bad that you aren’t pro-Mexican, because that is where the problem really lies.
Mexico is an incredibly rich and beautiful country. It has abundant natural resources – oil, gas, timber, minerals. It has to beautiful coastlines and vast tracks of arable land that produce more food than it’s population can consume. It’s people are hard working and family oriented. Yet, despite all of it’s God given advantages, Mexico has been cursed with a vile and corrupt political and social elite.
What kind of nation actively encourages it’s citizens to leave, rather than address the political and econmonic corruption that makes it so hard for Mexicans to provide for their families and realize their dreams at home?
The U.S. isn’t the problem. It’s not about the border, our motives, or the “broken” debate.
The U.S. is the most welcoming nation on earth, period. We take in more legal immigrants than all the other nations of the world combined. We welcome these people as citizens and grant them a degree of respect and access to opportunities that few other people do.
The next time you are tempted to wag your finger at Americans who you claim are, “anti-foreigner and want(s) to end not just illegal immigration but the legal kind too.” You may want to reflect on why these people are here in the first place.
