The Government discredits itself by turning a blind eye to disobedience of the law. One of the most egregious examples of this is tolerance of both illegal immigration and tolerance of the companies that employ illegal immigrants.

When the government isn’t simply turning a blind eye toward illegal immigration, it’s crying “wolf” about it’s intention to do something, anything to address our immigration issues So I expect to be excused for being skeptical of their latest stated plans to… do something.

Seeing is believing but we need action. Our society can not tolerate blatant lawlessness and remain credible as a nation committed to the rule of law. Laws need to be adhered to by all persons resident in this nation, not compromising for convenience or for economic factors. Illegal immigrants (and their advocates) would seek to undermine what makes our country unique and, frankly, better than their native lands, for their own selfish and immediate gain. We mustn’t allow continued violation of law, regardless the cost. We’ll see if congress has the will, moral clarity and resolve to do anything about this situation before the window for action has passed. I have my doubts.
