Tenchu has brought ONE thing to my attention: Its a lot easier to point out a problem... and then blame someone for it... than it is create and propose new solutions. For example: Libertarians have pointed out the drug wars don't work and are even counterproductive. Making the problem worse. Obviously... 100 years of failure prove that without a doubt. The solution is obvious and rational... which is why we don't do it. Decriminalization of addictive drugs, making addicts take courses about addiction. Providing drugs at cost taking the profits out of organized criminal bank accounts. Legalizing non-damaging drugs like marijuana or mushrooms. The immigration problem IS a problem. Its a financial problem. Immigrants undermine salaries, break unions and use our infrastructure having not paid into it. The solution is obvious and rational... I've proposed we tax immigrants 2x as much for 5 working years, and as long as they don't commit crimes, let them work for and gain citizenship. A solution immigrants themselves approve of. - We'd need a smaller immigration bureaucracy. - It'd discourage criminals... who'd lose their chance at citizenship permanently if they commit crimes. Hopefully they'd just stay away. Particularly if we decriminalize drugs. - Instead of working underground immigrants would be happy to pay double taxes. Just like going to college you pay to better economic chances. - We could use the tax money we otherwise wouldn't get from under the table work to retrain US workers and build more infrastructure. Hire more teachers. And yet the left thinks that's unfair to immigrants and the right are just bigots who are happy to hire immigrants to mow their lawns and install their drywall. So we are GOING TO MAKE THE SAME STUPID MISTAKES... permanently. One thing we need more than anything else, in business and politics is CREATIVITY.
