The Third World is not poor. The Third World is rich in resources. The PEOPLE of the Third World are poor at the point of a gun. Every lowlife death squad dictatorship on this planet receives direct support of arms, or funding for the purchase of arms, or financing in the form of guaranteed loans for arms, from our government. The socialist democracies do not yield escaping populations desperate enough to endure the dangers and hardship of illegal immigration. Only our pet psychopaths produce that suffering. We need to get out of the business of oppressing labor in the Third World. We need to stop allowing our government to support the human suffering, the corruption, and the sleaze that are the result of our support, our maintenance, and our outfitting of dictatorships.
