There is something quite sinister about this statement, above the usual illegal amnesty that Democrats always push.
It strikes me more like Pelosi is saying that the US should appropriate the children of other nations for our own purposes. As in, we don’t have children of our own, we’ll just take yours.
And, of course, despite Democrat propaganda, many of these illegals are not here for better opportunities. Some of them might have been tricked into coming by coyotes who sold them into slavery (aka human trafficking). Others are opportunists who use the lax border enforcement to traffic heroin and other drugs. We don’t need the slaves or drug lords, and those who genuinely want a better opportunity can apply for a visa at the embassy. And I think I should point out that they have plenty of opportunities in Mexico, which actually does have schools and good universities. In fact, the National Autonomous University of Mexico is one of the top universities in the world.
There are a lot of good people drawn from their homes in Mexico to seek a new life in the US. People with initiative, dedication, common sense, and adventurous spirits. Not everyone is like that. The people that stay behind in their cities & villages may get a little extra money sent back to them, but I wonder if they’re not the best the country of Mexico had to offer. They’re likely beset with problems that they can’t solve, like drug lords and corrupt politicians; many of the people among them who had the capacity to address the issues have gone, lured away.
The policies of the DemonicRats that lure them here to the US are evil: they encourage the newcomers to break laws getting here, break laws to vote here, and they cause the places the newcomers came from to suffer and decay. The neighborhoods in Mexico are decimated of talent, while the leeches of their society pester them for a cut of any remittances sent back.
Mexico is made to suffer, and the US is made to suffer: corrupted voting rolls, tradesmen’s wages adapting to the new regime (workers willing live in three & four income households), and a great many entry level worker’s from this country unable to compete - relegated to the family basement into their 30’s.
Thank You, Nancy Pelosi
