Illegal Immigrants...

I watch Lou Dobbs on CNN on and off while eating my dinner, he is sort of on a Jihad against the illegal immigration from Mexico. He is going on and on about this problem for a week. He even covered a small demonstration of over 10 senior's outside Home Depot in Nowhereville in Southern California.

Yesterday he spinned it in to Homeland Security problem. He said that the Mexican poor laborers have military connection and therefore AlQuida will sneak in their fighters along with them, no, I didn't even understand the connection, you go figure. These poor sobs who sneak at night to clean the washrooms in wale-Marts and Homedepots are the new terrorists, Oh My God The terrorists.

illegal immigration is problem all over the world, even India is facing this problem, those poor Bangadeshis sneak into clean our Washrooms. In India there is no way you identify whether they are illegal or not, so their evacuation is a big contentious issue.

What are the ways to end this illegal immigration? Why does Juan from Mexico city come into Nowhereville to become a janitor? Its the lure of mighty dollar, isn't it? So why not make Mexican dollar the same as US Dollar? Why not make the whole world into one economic zone? Kinda European Union? Adam Smith the author of the seminal book in Economics "Wealth of nations" must be turning in his grave.

I know this is not feasible, some countries have more resources, culture which is open, people more hard working, and I don't know, probably many more reasons... Therefore till there are vast difference in currencies and standard of living, people will be willing to cross the Atlantic hiding in containers for months.

No I don't have a solution..., If had one I wouldn't be blogging, I would be doing something more useful
