To help nudge undocumented workers out the door, states, towns and counties have been busily legislating against them.

Unfortunately in the battle to send illegals home, bad times here are still better than returning to Mexico.

The saddest part of the illegal immigrants and workers is that all levels of government are too afraid to enforce the rules.This means that illegals are punished with very low wages and living conditions while big corporations continue to make a fortune off the backs of these people.Lastly illegal immigrants have far too many rights to fight extradition back to their home countries. The immigration system is a sad farce and reflection on the democratic system we enjoy which takes many, many years to enact, accomplish and try to make better. Western countries have far too many loopholes in the immigration system which diminishes all we have done to make democracy work and be fair to ALL peoples. This whole system is totally out of control. This is how empires fall and America is falling into the greed of corporations with their money controlling the political system and the people of America. Our great Western civilization is dying because of the power of more and more greed and very little given back by governments to the average people. Sincerely Timothy and R. Carin Kritsch
