Before you think I’m against immigration, let me state once again my feelings on the issue.

I am very much pro-immigration.

The US should allow lots of new people into this country in hopes that they become good, tax-paying citizens. Why? Because it’s the right thing to do.

But if you would rather have a selfish reason, here it is. Our Social Security system is a pyramid scheme. And unless there are enough new workers coming into the system, younger workers are going to get screwed when it comes time to collect.

People already in America simply aren’t producing enough babies who’ll someday get jobs and keep Social Security afloat.

Open borders? Stupid. We should know who is coming into the country.

Should we lower are standards on who we allow into the country? No, but we shouldn’t discriminate against any group just because of where they are from.

Should we be careful that dangerous people don’t sneak in? That doesn’t even deserve a comment — or course we should be careful. Very careful! And if the only way to guarantee our safety is to build a damned wall on the Mexican border, then do it.

How can people who some might consider marginally acceptable for immigration into the US actually get into our country? Through sponsorship.
