immigration debate tied to globalism

Why the sudden interest in cracking down on illegal labor, which is an underpinning of our economy? Because with globalization, it might be cheaper to get those workers back across the border, and into a sweat shop over there, than it is to pay them peanuts over here. It's a simple pocket-book decision. It used to be chaper to keep them here, now it's cheaper to send them back.

Either that, or the invasion of Iran is being planned while the TV-watching public is distracted by this artificially contentious immigration debate.
