This is in response to the post by mailbag at RMN entitled: EMAIL FROM AMERICAN WHO LIVED & WORKED IN MEXICO-UNBELIEVABLE
-------
Are you suggesting that you approve of this kind of scrutiny and the bribery and the jumping through hoops necessary just to make a living across an artificial "border?" Or is this sour grapes... I have to suffer, let "them" suffer too...
I am wondering if in the long run, all of this is pointless. If indeed this whole immigration "problem" is merely thrown out as a distraction from what is happening in Iran, etc., then every ounce of breath we give it contributes to "their" successful distraction attempts...
How much of what we THINK is important, actually IS important? How many of the thoughts we think are OUR thoughts, OUR concerns? Why didn't we fuss over immigration a year ago??? When did we get so hooked on it? How many of us are all of a sudden screaming "spic" at the TV news broadcasts... I know some are, for I have heard it...
This is all very sad...
Our "loyalties" may be our greatest addiction and the biggest hindrance to the solutions we claim to seek...
Perhaps we ARE our own worst enemies...
Some things I think I think,
