America won't be able to course-correct in the present until we're willing to own the past; that applies to immigration as well as to everything else.

If the US hadn't intervened so often in Latin America over the years, suppressing even democratically elected governments when they didn't serve US corporate interests, many of their economies would never have become so destabilized to begin with.

Demonizing immigrant populations whose desperation stems in large part from our own malfeasance is a national character defect, the result of an imperialistic arrogance now coming up for us to review, dissolve and heal. The world will become a better place when we do.

What the hell does that mean. “Own the past.” We do not owe citizenship to the world. If we do how many are you trying to bring in? 100mil 200? A billion?

That includes the good stuff too. No more black-armband history for foreign markets.

Democrat socialists and their “root causes”. They never want to fix the problem, they want to analyze it for a thousand years and try to figure out why it is a problem lol

We won’t course correct because we no longer are raising our children to take total responsibility for themselves and become self sufficient. The rest of the animal kingdom does it. Not Humans. We are into blame.

Ladies, and the men who love us, don’t get caught up in the sideshow meant to distract & weaken Women's unity & equality by BOTH parties. Say it with me: The #ERA SAVES ROE. TIME TO PUBLISH JOE! @POTUS

We can’t afford more immigrants. Immigrants take jobs from Americans. Immigrants reduce American worker wages by flooding the labor supply pool. Immigrants reduce American worker wages by undermining unions. Immigrants drive up the cost of housing for Americans. Wake up.
