I wanted to take a few seconds to post my thoughts on immigration amnesty in the US of A. I recognize that as a Canadian I don’t have all the facts and certainly do not have all the feelings, nor experience, but for a long time I’ve had a simple understanding that for me cuts thru the FUD (fear, uncertainty and doubt).
People are of value.
People bring something to the table with them, the desire to succeed, the desire and capability to create wealth. When a person says, those _______ are going to ‘steal our jobs’ I just don’t have too much headroom for that thinking, because it’s people that create wealth not the lack thereof.
One thing every western country needs is more people, not less. People even create people, and then, those people create wealth. Or better put, they create lives, for themselves and their children.
So one more time, real simply, people are of extreme value to an economy, every person. Those that take chances when told they cannot should be prized, they’re the ones that teach us about risk:reward. The issues that remain can and should be dealt with, but not by shutting the doors to protect what could be yours from someone who might work for it harder than you…remember people create the opportunity, and wealth they desire, with their own hand(s).
