Is there anyone looking at the big picture?

I believe something should be done about our border issues. I believe a way must be found that allows for people who simply want to work to come through our frontera with their heads held high; no more coyotes, no more crossing dangerous land, no more sneaking across. We must find a way to correct the mess we have allowed ourselves to get into in a humane and intelligent way. Racial profiling and scapegoating our undocumented people for all that is wrong with our country is not the way to save our country from the economic downslide we are experiencing. In fact, what we are allowing people like Sheriff Joe to do is not going to help us...rather, it is going to destroy us. Yes, there are many people here without documents. But for the most part, they are working and they are working jobs that Americans won't take. The very same Americans complaining about the presence of the undocumented worker probably says nothing when purchasing products touched by the hands of someone here illegally. They have no problem going out to eat or living in homes built by our undocumented. Will they complain more and more as prices go up and the country literally falls apart. I have no doubt...but will they have the presence of mind to note why prices are shooting up? Will they take a moment to look outside of their tunnel vision to see the incredibly irresponsible way our government is spending our money on a war we have no business being a part of? And when the American citizen is out of a job, without a home or food to eat...will they continue to blame the undocumented worker or will they finally, finally take responsibility for the manner in which he chose to live and the condition of the country he didn't bother to stand up for. It's very easy to point fingers. It's very easy to place blame. While I agree, there does need to be changes made...the changes necessary are not just regarding our borders. The citizens of this country have overspent themselves into a deep hole and now are finding themselves losing everything. Our government has done the same thing on a much larger scale and no one seems willing to look in the mirror and stop the madness. No...it's much easier to allow ourselves to be distracted by idiots like Arpaio. I ask you this...who will we blame when our immigrants decide enough is enough and leave us to the shit we've created for ourselves? They will know how to survive. The immigrant, documented or not, knows how to make due, how to adjust to whatever is thrown at him. Do you know how to be poor? Get ready...it's coming and sooner than you think.
