Borders

The borders in America should be open to all Hispanics. Have we forgotten our history on this subject? What if the Indians would have cut off the borders during the European settlement. Well, atleast they would have kept thier land and most of them would have survived from the diseases the Europeans passed on to the Indians. America would have a different aspect of history in that manner. Africans and caucasians would reside in Great Britain. Most of us would have a deep english dialect and would have a queen and Parliament rule over us. Some how America seems to forget the problems that was set on them from the past. Why should we treat other people different from how we would want to be treated. I know that people might think that Mexicans and other Latinos are taking over jobs but always remember jobs are moving across seas. Businesses are owned by Americans who are not Hispanic so who can be blame for cheap labor practices. It should be against the law to pay that amount of wages to anyone.

Really interesting observation. I do believe in some sort of amnesty, but that comes at a cost, doesn't it? And I don't just mean financial. I'm talking about the cost to our laws and precedents.

I am not sure i agree with you on this one. Opening up the borders would just cause an overflow of people trying to get into the US. If you open up the borders it would also be much easier for terrorist attacks to take place....again. Just a few thoughts.
