We have something Mexico wants: jobs. Mexico has something we want: Cancun. Trouble is brewing! I don’t think Iran or Korea has anything to worry about as long as we have to keep paying such ridiculous prices for vacationing. Write your Congressman, your Senator, the President and let them know! We want Cancun and will take it by force if we have to.

There is a saner solution to this political entanglement. We could trade immigration slots for parcels of vacation land. This will avoid the bloodshed and will both regulate immigration into the United States, giving immigrants the prize of legality. And it will also give us what we want: tropical paradise. I see no clearer solution to this problem.

In all seriousness, if we don’t give the power to someone to control immigration, then the immigrants will take the power for themselves and there will be no regulation.

If you’ve come to America legally and are willing to follow our laws (which sadly, not all Americans do anyway), you are welcome here.

Those who demand the rights of citizenship without the responsibilities of citizenship should set down the flags of their countries or return to their own countries, where they can wave their flags proudly.

From the point of view of an immigrant, it’s hard for me to blame them. I would probably feel the same need to go to the streets and demand rights. It’s a hard balance we have to achieve. Hopefully a solution will be reached that will achieve long-term good and disrupt as few lives as possible, no matter which flag they claim as their own.

But here on the soil of the United States, it’s our flag we wave.
