This is a horror story. Who is watching out for our children? We do care about those 60.000 kids that were there and the millions more kids that will come in if we legalize the status of our own illegal immigrants here. We care about our own kids first. and there is nothing wrong with that. We dont have to apologize about it. and we dont have to apologize also that we have the most generous legal system in the world. By the way. for those people who always talk about. Well. immigration really helps our country and helps our economy. if you look at the statistics that are being presented. often what you are being told about are the effect of legal immigrants. which is true. They do add. and I personally would like to go on the record in saying that I believe in legal immigration. I believe that our million people. we can absorb that. 300 million people. we certainly can absorb 1 million more legal immigrants. we should refine our system. so that those legals that are coming in are people that have a means and a skill or an education level. so they will be contributing to the wealth of the country rather than consuming it. There are a lot of businesses that say they need some specialists. Yes. lets try to structure the legal immigrants in that way so it meets the needs of America. as well as brings in very highlyeducated people into our country. When we bring in people who are not that. when we bring in people who are not producing wealth. but instead are consumers. that means there is less wealth in our society. and that means that especially Americas lowerincome people are worse off. Now. when I was a kid.
