There appears to be a psychological disconnect in so many americans. there was a news story recently about some murders in new mexico and all the comments were outraged because the people involved had spanish names and they assumed they were "illegals". they have spanish names because NEW MEXICO was a spanish colony for hundreds of years. the capital of spain in the new world was in new mexico. for five hundred years, hispanics have been living in the west, in places like california (spanish name) arizona (spanish name) new mexico. cities with names like los angeles san francisco, the west's history is spanish history. it says something about the level of ignorance in schools in this country. without "illegals" nobody in this country would eat. you'd all starve to death. drive through the san joaquin valley and see who is picking the food that goes to your stores. drive through any vineyards in the u.s. and see who is picking the grapes. trump's son, eric joked about ICE showing up after the harvest and all the illegals were gone. trump himself not only hires thousands of illegals, he married two of them. drive by any meat processing plant in the country at shift change and see who comes out. who cleans all the motel/hotel rooms, who works construction, who does landscaping? it is an open secret that our government helps "illegals" to work and maneuver in this country. they can get a driver's license in virginia and maryland, get bank loans for mortgages, enroll their children in schools. banks, government, and corporations make this possible. until americans figure this out, that the powers that be WANT "illegals" here, they will continue to be ignorant and manipulated into seeing "illegals" as the enemy. it's sad but the reality is that americans are the most obese people on the planet and now they can barely reproduce. corporations and the government will make sure "illegals" are in abundance while playing both sides against each other so these entities can exploit cheap labor with the threat of ICE and deportation.
