CONGRESS, DO YOUR JOB!!!

hello america!!! when you come to my house & ring my bell, it's not only my decision to &/or not to respond to it but, it's also my decision to allow &/or not allow you entrance---however, if you break in, there are going to be repercussions...

america is our home & when 'foreigners' come to our borders, it's up to us to respond by allowing them in or denying them entrance &, when they break the law to gain entrance, there should be repercussions...

good people, we have a very serious immigration problem that became even more entangled because of obama & his extremely lax immigration policies & enforcement &, regardless of how you spin it, that's the truth---that said, we've always had an immigration problem that neither political party could truly get together & solve---guess what america??? trump has given our congress the opportunity to do just that (starting with daca) &, they only have 6 months to do it---my money is on congress not getting it done & trump ending it...

while there are many 'children' that will be affected by whatever decision is/is not made, the blame lies squarely on the extremely weak shoulders of obama & company (obama for circumventing congress & congress for not doing its job) &, there is no 'easy-one size fits all' solution---regardless of what happens, somebody is going to be upset...

good people, they say we have about 11 million plus illegal aliens (who counted them???) living within our borders & common sense says...1. we can't round them all up & deport them &, 2. we can't grant them all citizenship & that creates the dilemma we're presently confronted with...

here are some of the major problems we face in granting them the right to stay here...
1.....the majority of jobs they would undertake will negatively effect the employment rate of those south of our middle-class financial levels ($22,000-$32,000 per year)---as quiet as that's been kept, that's made up by many people of color...
2.....our 'entitlements programs' (to include healthcare) would swell across the board...
3.....far too many of them have not been 'vetted' & that poses a threat to our safety...
4.....our schools would be forced to teach them our language or we'd be forced to learn theirs...

&, some of the good points are...
1.....many of them are/& or may contribute in a positive manner to our country...
2.....we would become more accepting of other cultures...
3.....we wouldn't be breaking up families...

regardless of which way it turns out, they should never be granted a path to citizenship ahead of all of those that are trying to become citizens the correct way nor should their needs be placed ahead of the needs of 'true americans' & no, just because one has been in our country for a length of time does not make them a 'true american'...

the southern border wall needs to be built & our immigration laws need to be fully enforced...
