Meanwhile, immigration reform is still a distant light on the horizon. At least some of the newspapers are writing More pro immigrant articles. I read in a Brownsville paper many of our immigrant friends are giving up on the American dream. The discrimination is so thick you can cut it with a knife.
It is just not worth it for some. Why come here to work your guts out, then get the cold shoulder or worse, suffer unequal treatment under the law, listen to Hispanic bashing and yeah, they say it is immigrant bashing but since most immigrants are Hispanic, it is a little bit of the same, don't you think?
Then if you have kids, well heck, will they really be better off here, where there are no educational opportunities, nothing more than the prospect of continued living under repression, hate, low wages, continued poverty....
Meanwhile, lots of food is rotting on the vine....while the heart and soul of the American conscience rots along side.
We need to register our voters, we need to voice our opinions, frankly, I think we need a big change in Washington, and some of our state congresses. Let's tell the rush Limbaugh's, the Sean hannitys, the tom tancredos, the Barbara Butchers, democrat Pueblo Colorado who supported putting prisoners to work in the fields at .60 cents an hour while charging farmers $9.60 an hour, more than they paid migrant farm workers, and let's tell everyone else who joyfully gains notoriety at the expense of a few, why don't you go to Russia......
