Is now addressing the nation about illegal immigrants. I like what he is saying so far. The temporary worker program seems unrealistic but maybe there is no perfect answer. Once they are 'allowed' to come and work for a 'temporary' period of time, and as he says, "it will give them an opportunity to make a better way for their family" why would they want to then go back home? They won't. They will simply gain "lawful" entrance into our country and then disappear when it's time for them to go home. Don't tell me they won't. Currently, as it stands now, they will allow themselves to be smuggled by human smugglers, walk for miles and miles and miles in almost unbearable heat to get to our country. They will do whatever they have to to get here, don't tell me they will just simply turn themselves in after their "temporary" stay is over....
We'll see what the aftermath brings after this address. It's a firestorm of a hot button issue. Our country is a wonderful blend of many kinds of people. As it should be. But it should be a lawful blend of people. That is what I believe. We should not simply allow whoever to enter and/or stay. I suppose to some extent it cannot be helped, they are here, already part of our economy, our lives but to the extent they are discovered in whatever fashion or form, they should not be allowed to stay. It will be sending the wrong message; one that says it's easy to gain entrance into this country and even easier to be allowed to stay.
We'll see what happens now. Very interesting indeed.
