Mexico The 51st State? No way Joseph!

My friends think that what I do is easy. They think that writing about events and offering reasoned commentary is something that anyone can do. And believe me, they try. Little do they realize that what I do, again offering reasoned feedback, is actually more difficult than it seems!

Yes, I know that there are many politicians on the left who think that what I write is absolute gibberish and that my comment has no reasoning, but hey, it is their prerogative to be wrong. After all, if they were right, I wouldn’t have the nice little stream of income generated from talking about your psycho that I do.

So I was approached by a friend of mine who said, “I want to write an article for your site that is going to solve the immigration problem!”

My interest was piqued. But he was careful since from the beginning he incorrectly framed the argument by calling it an “immigration issue” and not an “illegal immigration issue.” After all, I know how to solve the problem of “illegal” immigration. Just respect the border and deport the criminals caught coming here illegally.

“Tell me,” I asked, knowing full well that the “plan” I was about to reveal was going to be more complicated than it needed to be.

“It’s simple,” he said, “we need to make Mexico 51st Street…”

I didn’t even let him say the word “Status” before I stopped him. I have heard this argument before and it is terrible. But the two of us had an argument that made him realize that what I do isn’t as easy as just saying the first thing that comes to mind and calling it a good idea.

The plan was that if we made Mexico the 51st State, then we could accomplish several things. First, take control of Mexico and “modernize” the country. Second, and most “brilliantly” to remove the US border with Mexico entirely, thus eliminating the need to secure it. Third, reduce the size of the southern border of the United States to about 200 miles because it would now be the border with Guatemala. Fourth, give the United States more domestic oil since we already get a lot from Mexico.

Fence! That was the plan!

Certainly much more complicated than say, enforcing the border and deporting illegals! In case you didn’t know she meant it sarcastically.

I say one thing to this plan. No way Joseph!

First of all, Mexico would never accept that. There is too much political power that Mexican politicians would relinquish.

Second, there is too much corruption in Mexico. Do you think Chicago on Election Day is corrupt? Say oh! Look at Mexican politics!

Third, I know this sounds like a good idea to people who have visited the tourist cities of Mexico, but if you have gone off the beaten path and have ever seen the real poverty that reigns in Mexico, you would think twice. . To even give socialists here in America and their foolish Democrats so many new automatic additions to welfare roles would be insane! Talk about ending any chance we have of turning our sinking ship around.

And who will pay for all those new mouths that need the social spending that has become intertwined in our society? You, me and any other American with a good job, that’s who.

Fourth, do you really think that the environmental nuts here in the United States would let us continue to drill for oil in our new state? You have to be dreaming! It’s hard enough for us to drill in Alaska!

And finally, yes, Mexico is poor, but Guatemala is even poorer. The last thing we need is to put a country worse than Mexico on our southern border. Trading one problem for another doesn’t move you forward.

After explaining this to my now stunned friend who had just been hit with several sledgehammers in his plan that he hadn’t even considered, he agreed that my original plan was much better, simpler and more effective. And he also agreed that what I do is certainly not something that any average Joe like him can do.

So it’s good that he’s here and it’s great that he’s up to the task.
