As I'm sure you know, most people in the third world would give a left nut to be able to live here. But that is because, then, they can live off of the spill-over spoils of exploitation, and they are desperate enough to be in no position to consider the long term consequences of our policies. They are so poor they only think about being able to feed and shelter themselves.
People who can't feed and shelter themselves have more immediate problems than getting to America. They're not the ones who can afford to come here. The ones who can, and who are trying to, are the hard-working entreprenuers who know they can go much farther in America than in their home country.

"spoils of exploitation"? Give me a break.
