Let’s blame all the illegal aliens (Mexicans) in this country for our deficit, for our spiraling health care costs, for increased crime, increased drug use, and for helping the socialist Democrats to gain power in both Houses, and the Presidency. 

In one talk radio show after another, the talk show hosts, never have a solution.  They always have an answer to all of America’s problems, in the form of someone to blame.  A target to blame, manufactured through lies and innuendo, a scapegoat whom all of America can focus its frustration and its pain of having to endure the hardest times since the Great Depression.  This seems eerily reminiscent of how Adolph Hitler focused the frustration of hard economic times imposed by European Allies (Treaty of Versailles), which crushed Germany economically and led to the successful rise of the Nazi Party on the political scene.  All by creating misdirection to deceive the masses, a scapegoat, the irrational blaming of Germany’s economy became the fault of the Jews, while Hitler, an unemployed inferior artist, took over Germany.

There are problems in the United States that have no quick fix, or simple solution.  The last time America had an economic surplus was during the Presidency of Bill Clinton.  It took eight years of irresponsible government and even worse behavior on Wall Street, to bring this country and the rest of the world, to the very brink of the worst financial times the world has ever experienced. 

The only single common denominator that can rightfully be “blamed” as the fault is Greed run rampant.  Greed was hiding under the guise of helping the poor realize The American Dream of home ownership.  Sins were committed, and fault can be found, it is evident in hindsight that those rich, powerful, and influential people, people who wanted to be wealthier than God, caused a spiraling downward and collapsing economy when there was nothing left to steal.  

Illegal immigrants became the target, the scapegoat, because they had no national voice to argue their case. America needed a reason, someone to blame.  Rationally, no way could illegal aliens cause the US economy woes. Immigrants just wanted to raise a family in America, with hopes and dreams of something better for their children.  This dream should sound familiar; it was the motivation upon which our ancestors built this nation. 

Today the border between Mexico
