We are kidding ourselves if we think that by opening our doors and taking in everyone in the world who wants to come here we are somehow helping to resolve one of the greatest problems that the world is facing today. The Senator from Missouri went to Cambodia and saw those individuals. He might have gone to Afghanistan or Pakistan and seen a million or so there. or to Ethiopia or Somalia or throughout the Caribbean. We cannot honestly tell the people of the United States that by being this generous and by accepting this tax burden. we are some way resolving this problem of refugees and homeless people. We are not in any sense.
