Steve McCann, the author, is an immigrant. I will post another article in which he recounts his story.
The unvarnished truth is
that if the United States is
to survive as founded, it cannot afford either economically, politically or
from a national security perspective to have an undefined, loose and
emotion-based immigration policy.
Based on my life’s
experience I do have empathy with those seeking a better life and in particular
the children who been used as pawns in order for their extended families to
access the welfare and economic benefits of living in the United States. However, I am more concerned
about the future of my adopted country and all of my fellow citizens. I
would venture that I am not alone in my outlook, as a vast majority of other
immigrants and naturalized citizens are increasingly amazed at the folly that
is immigration policy in America.
For many years
the various regimes in Washington and the nation’s governing class has been
motivated by crass politics and maintaining or increasing their hold on
governmental power. They have not given a damn about the well-being
of the people or the future of the country.
