What’s the Password?

An article arguing in favor of legal immigration appeared in the New York Times on October 3rd by the paper’s Editorial Board. From the stat, it becomes obvious to the reader that the article speaks to a generally liberal, left-wing audience, encouraging a smoother path for immigrants to become citizens through legal processes; at the same time making an example of those who would stand guard on the other side of an impregnable fence. However debatable, the supposedly honest members of our House and Senate are there because the majority of the population in the regions of this country decided that these people best represented their views; this would indicate that there are simply more people accountable. The article mentions specific names that both oppose and support the idea of “legal immigration,” but those people alone hold no power to either hinder or help anyone who wishes to become an American, properly or not. The NYTimes seems to agree by concluding that “The blame for its (a smoother path to immigration) failure to do that lies squarely with the hard-liners who rage against illegal immigrants, but are strangely uninterested in helping people who “play by the rules” and “wait in line.” I agree that this is a peculiar point. I have painfully listened to many a moron who seem to prefer a display of predigest and ignorance over even an iota of original critical thinking, or more importantly, problem solving. This leaves me with but one question, “So what the f@#$ is the password?” If a majority of people tend to agree that due process is the correct procedure in which to become an official American citizen, why the hell are we trying to prevent even those applicants from full admission? If a person cannot gain access to the States via “the immigration system,” then what choice have they? The sad fact of the matter is that our system has failed its people, (not to mention those who would be its people) and that we are subject to a biased disposition shameless of its vindictive and false preaching’s. The truth is that ignorance is still the most grandiose problem in the United States of America and most are not willing to do ANYTING about it.
