Here's an idea; every time a bunch of liberals are in a public place spouting off about how terrible America is, bring in a busload of people who'd be willing to do ANYTHING in order to be allowed to stay here, and let them debate the liberals on the value of America. Bonus if the illegals are all non-white, because any time the liberals try to argue with them they can all scream "RACISM"!! lol

The Brazilians on the hunger strike in jail know the gig is up (for the time being)...A decreasing value of the American dollar vs the Brazilian real may stem some illegal immigration, but not much. Latin Americans have always had ambivalent feelings about the USA.. They may be best summarized as Yankee go home! but take me with you.

Damn good point, Steve.
We also get accused of "cultural imperialism" when we suggest that if they did a few things our way at home, their home country would be as wealthy a place to live as here.
We're only the second "empire" ever to intentionally set up competition.
