Open Borders – Why Not Just Invite the Entire World to the U.S.?
[American Thinker] America’s southern, and perhaps northern, border is open for business, lined with welcome mats, neon lights, and a sign flashing, "come one, come all."To even call the physical boundary of the United States "a border" is a miscarriage of language. Today’s reality is that there is no national border. At least for those crossing by foot or caravan. For those attempting to enter the U.S. legally, by following the law and visa application process, it’s a nightmare of rules, delays, cost, and frustration. For those interested, read here about the bizarre labyrinth facing citizens of many countries to legally visit or transit through America. Lady Liberty doesn’t want any "huddled masses yearning to breathe free" that follow American law, but has her arms and purse wide open to those coming to America illegally. How many? Before President Biden, "As of 2021, the nation’s 10.5 million unauthorized immigrants represented about 3% of the total U.S. population." What about now, specifically the past three years under Biden? Since Biden took office in early 2021, the Customs and Border Protection Agency (CBP) has "encountered" almost 8 million border crossers, the majority young military age males. In August alone, that number was 232,972, an annualized rate of 3 million migrants a year. December is no better with 300,000 migrant arrests, as Fox News reported. Those arrested are told to appear in court up to a decade later. Good luck with that. Trump promised to "Build a wall." Posted by: Besoeker 2023-12-28 |
