Heard on the radio just now about how US Border agents have become babysitters because of a huge number of children entering our borders in the past few years. Most of these children are unaccompanied minors, and range from as young as four to as old as teenagers. As they come in, they are clearly suffering from a lot of maladies from malnutrition to measles to smallpox and just about anything under the desert sun.
Why are they illegally entering our borders? Because these children want our jobs? No, because of the US government's negligence with our nearest neighbors, as drug and gang violence has gotten so bad that many people have become refugees. They do not just come from Mexico, (duh!, they come from various countries even south of that like Honduras, Guatemala, Columbia, etc.
What is our Congress going to do about it? They would rather deport these children, who have already suffered so much and are continuing to suffer due to lack of resources from the people who are now their caretakers. Our borders agents are trying their best, btw. A recent committee meeting showed how GOP politicians were more concerned about immigration policy than helping these children.
Is this Obama's fault? Obviously yes if you hate him so much, especially since this has been going on for quite a while.
