I don't see any point in staging virtuosity displays over this issue, which is what everybody in the world is doing, maybe a little bit in here, too. Decisions and laws get made to solve problems which sometimes change over time. The essence of a working democracy is to perceive the changes and act accordingly. The United States has been lazy on many fronts for many years, and immigration and handling of 'illegal' residents is a major failure on all our parts. "Harvest of Shame" a CBS Reports documentary aired 1959-1960 exposing the plight of immigrant farmworkers who were used as cheap labor. The movie "El Norte" was a fictionalized story of the remains of a family fleeing violence in Guatemala and finding work and victimization in the United States. 1983 dear people. By this time the responsibility is firmly on all Americans. Perps down there, perps up here, and users all round. Trump did not create this mess, he will not fix this mess. Trump is not even a symptom. He's a pustule on the boil, if that. It's a Pogo moment. Most of you should be old enough to know what that is.
