I take your point but its also not quite what I was getting at. It's not tht it's our RESPONSIBILITY to do things for other countries. Its not. And they do have their own agency, you are correct. What I'm saying is that ifAmerica has certain domestic policies it wants accomplished, in this case a reduction in illegal immigration and the "wrong" type of immigrants, then itfollows that we need to pursue policies, relationships, trade, and programs that accomplish those goals, and that cannot be done entirely withinthe borders of the United States. So while we can complain about who has to step up their game all night long, there's theory and there's fact. Now mind you, I don't believe in doing this to the point of interventionism; clearly that is a failed policy and hasbeen harmful around the world for decades. But cooperation? Building up allies to shore up our domestic tranquility? We should always be doing that. That's just my two cents though. --Just Post, World Is A Fuck!-- This Quality Shit-Post Brought To You Via Commodore 64 Ultimate n --- mSynchronetn hgVertrauen n hHome of Synchronet n gh[vert/cvs/bbs].synchro.net ----------------------------------------------------------- [Voltar]
