Immigrant's Song

I have the privilege (that's irony folks) of living in a state so "right wing that it's spinning, not in a circle, but a death spiral.

Immigration is a hot button topic.How all these "new folks" (Not at all what they are called) take so much from society, play the system and return nothing. I have some pretty interesting thoughts about this subject. Most of those that I actually know in/on/using the system are the same race, religion and creed as the complainers. In fact the same family in some cases. As that old religious tenet goes, "let those without sin cast the first stone"!

History shows that the "new wave" of immigrants takes jobs that no one here wants. That they work hard and long hours for low wages until their children can reap the "American Dream". That history covers the period of time that these mockers have as an American history.

The legality scream is as absurd as it is odious. Why did all of our ancestors leave town in the dead of night? What papers did they have? Look into the mirror folks. As to what the new people add...did you pick that orange, apple, squash that you are cooking? Who's face do you see when you enter a food store? 


Every single person in our nation owes that single fact to ancestors that crossed oceans or ice to get here. The Indians were first by a wide margin and they walked...just as their descendants are now.
