I would tend to agree with Jesscott in the previous post. I would be willing to bet the biggest issue is their ability to use workers from overseas for a much lower wage. Step back and take a good hard look at these problems from 10,000 feet. Our government let things get so far out of hand that the illegals that are already here can protest in such massive numbers, and demand resources and benefits. It is going to require a firm stance and things will get better. Follow the law, and enter properly and you will see it is a pretty nice country. We just have some house cleaning to do.

I am so tired of over reactions in the US to everything. So your candidate didn't win, that doesn't make it unfair. So a few Muslim populated countries harbor terrorists. The reality of protection is that you have to blanket target a area to protect all. There is no real possible solution to vetting people from certain countries because the US has no diplomatic connections with them. Yes it makes for more issues for everyone, but the alternative like the TSA in airports is to allow terrorists to circumvent the system and attack us from within. This has worked well in Europe and we do not want that here. The Visa process does not give you citizen status. We are not robbing you of anything. You are allowed here because the immigration policy allows it. It can always be changed, and a pause was needed to prevent people from coming here for no other reason than to hurt us. On a personal level myself, I wonder why we as US citizens don't get as upset with out homeless, or our unemployed, or the fact Chicago has such a high crime rate or murders? Why does a few thousand inconvenienced non citizens bother so many? Maybe it's because companies like Google have far more vested in visa workers than US workers? Maybe their focus is on company profit and success and not on keeping America safe? The President's only responsibility is the safety of our citizens. We live in a violent world and its about time we realize that and with that comes sacrifices. Same as we have endured more security at airports, and more vetting to obtain visa's. Maybe if we had been more proactive against ISIS this might have been avoided? Has anyone thought of that?
