Regards the ‘southern border problem,’ it’s time to have a rational, long-term approach rather than the divisive demagoguery of both major, corrupt political parties:
. The United States cannot accommodate all the many millions who want to come here.
. Just building a wall is not a solution nor consistent with our values.
. Regardless, the rule of law must be equitably and humanely enforced.
. As the United States bears responsibility for the acute problems in this hemisphere in particular in El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, the USA should propose in conjunction with OAS, a new ‘Alliance for Progress’ open to all countries in Latin America to increase both employment and security so that our southern border will not be seen to be the only option for many people struggling with violence and unemployment in Latin America. This would be a responsible, serious, and pragmatic effort well beyond lip service involving many countries and donors in a sustainable Marshall like plan for Latin America.
