What Do Immigrants Owe Us?

We keep hearing it, over and over again, about how we Americans are somehow morally obligated to aliens – illegal or otherwise. About how we Americans are obligated to allow them into our country without our permission, and once they're here, to not only subsidize them but to validate the garbage cultures that they came from and now insist on replanting in our sacred soil. But there's a question that we need to start asking, particularly Republican politicians, whenever the subject of immigration arises. I don't mean the Republican politicians who were all for illegal immigration; these are the ones who insist that we somehow owe these people "dignity," as if it is we, and not their own actions, that have somehow deprived them of it. No, when we're talking about immigration, we need to ask a very simple question and demand an answer.
