No, one of his statement supports Mike's geography theory:


Think.. As instance, you're a father living (and been born) in a desert of mexico receiving less than US$60 per month.. 2 hungry daughters and a wife.. your patrimony is the clothes that you dress.. In less than 5 hours (sometimes walking) has a dream land..
..You will be illegal there.. Well, faced to the hungry condiction this is only a detail..




>Do you mean globalization is a point? It could be accounted for many things but linking it to illegal immigration is a stretch.

>>>>If most citizens of Brazil feel as you do Claudio, I really admire that. It presents a simple solution. Brazil can have responsibility for all illegal immigrants from Mexico in this country. Get the boats here and take 12 million to Brazil. Wonder how long that will take? Lets let the media know today. Once it's on tv they will start lining up I'm sure. I'm sure you can house a few :o)

If *I* broke into someone's home in Brazil, or Russia, or England, or somewhere else and asked for the same treatment I mentioned, would I receive it? Somehow I doubt it -- instead I believe that the local authorities would have a serious discussion with me in a room buried somewhere under the police station :-) ...

>>>>>>>>> Recently large demonstrations have taken place across the country protesting the fact that Congress is finally addressing the issue of illegal immigration. Certain people are angry that the US might protect its own borders, might make it harder to sneak into this country and, once here, to stay indefinitely. Let me see if I correctly understand the thinking behind these protests.

>>>>>>>>> Let's say I break into your house. Let's say that when you discover me in your house, you insist that I leave. But I say, "I've made all the beds and washed the dishes and did the laundry and swept the floors; I've done all the things you don't like to do. I'm hard-working and honest (except for when I broke into your house).
>>>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>>> According to the protesters, not only must you let me stay, you must add me to your family's insurance plan, educate my kids, and provide other benefits to me and to my family (my husband will do your yard work because he too is hard-working and honest, except for that breaking in part). If you try to call the police or force me out, I will call my friends who will picket your house carrying signs that proclaim my right to be there.

>>>>>>>>> It's only fair, after all, because you have a nicer house than I do, and I'm just trying to better myself. I'm hard-working and honest, um, except for well, you know.

>>>>>>>>> And what a deal it is for me!! I live in your house, contributing only a fraction of the cost of my keep, and there is nothing you can do about it without being accused of selfishness, prejudice and being an anti-housebreaker. Oh yeah, and I want you to learn my language so you can communicate with me.
