Regarding Mr. Calderon’s ideas about America’s immigration system, oh, yeah, we need his despotic input on our immigration system. (Sunday David Sirota column, “Tighter border’s unintended consequence.”)
Should you cross into Mexico accidentally or on purpose, and be caught without papers, you are entitled to a unkempt jail cell, shackled to an iron bunk for months on end.
Our system would work just fine, provided the laws on the books were enforced. We can pass any number of new laws and none will be effective in stemming the flow of illegal immigrants, because no new law will be enforced!
So, the American people are stuck.
Neither the GOP nor the Democrats are interested in controlling the border.
