Maybe I should just move to Vancouver
Since so many people are coming into the USA who only speak Spanish, my state requires that we now take some damn classes to learn strategies to teach these non-native speakers English. Why, I continue to ask myself, as I sit in all day classes on Saturdays?
If someone is going to sneak into our country, why can't they figure out how to live? They come over here and sneak into my country, and then they want me to serve and support their children. I will send my daughter to Mexico in a decade. I will expect the government to supply her with free lunches at the mexican schools since I will not send my money with her. (Why should I, when they will pay?!). I expect all of the teachers in her school to sit in a small room outside their normal work day, to get paid measley money, and learn how to speak English because I want them to be able to teach her, even if I am not encouraging her to learn how to speak their language. I want them to use their funds to give her clothes, I want them to use their funds to send her for higher education, I want them to support my kid, while I do nothing to support her myself. You know what. Stay there. Keep your damn people in your country and let them feed your economy. If you want to complain about how poor your people are, then stop permitting them to sneak over the border into my country to steal all the jobs from the American poor.
Sure, you may argue that the Mexicans should do our grunt work for us (trim my trees, cut my grass, build my fence, etc...) but each morning I see homeless white Americans out at the corner of my road, near the highway, living under whatever shelter they can find, and begging at the red light for food. If the damn Mexicans went home and worried about the economical problems in their country, then maybe my white homeless brethern can get off their butts and stand on the street corners waiting for the contractors to pick them up, pay them sub-minimum wage, and let them work for a few bucks.
As I sit in these classes for the next three Saturdays, in the paper the politicians and special interest groups are pushing for allowing people to vote in my state and our country without showing a proper ID card that proves that they belong here. What is our country coming to? We are not a third world country. Perhaps I should just move to Vancouver.

Yeah, that sucks. In my opinion, this is one of your most agreeable semi-political rants yet. (others make me want to slap you - but you should know this from me) Are you sure you're not just mostly a social liberal? - either way, your more right opinions on this make me want to offer a better solution than becoming Canadian. Sign this petition and help send it to others who share your view: www.ReformUS.org. It could directly affect the New Mexico & Arizona border situation and you having to sit in classes instead of teaching my neice how to swim.
