Federal Level Bills of Interest

[Lloyd Danforth]

While open borders sounds good, in theory, as long as we continue to have so many laws that encurage, practically, anyone, to live off of the labor of others, and a foreign policy that encurages imported terrorism, they (open borders) are not practical.
It is absurd to claim we can not guard our borders.  With todays technology and a small part of our defense budget, we could do it. Guarding our boarders is the ONLY job of our defense department. One of the problems is that we are geared up, only, for invading other countries.

It seems that the wimps in Washington just use the word Terrorist whenever they want the 'public' to support the bill.

The Fed Gov't already has all the info they just can't figure out how to make all the computers talk....so let's just add another system, a billion dollars..no problem the kids of 2032 can pay for it.
