Links to 10K+ stuck-on-stupid articles about the U.S.-Mexico problem since 2009. Read the long article after the posts to learn what the MMDS is all about.

[[This is the huge difference between immigration today and the great age of immigration between around 1880 and 1920 that often is cited as evidence that we are a “nation of immigrants.” Back then, immigrants were welcomed on the proviso that they become Americans if they wanted to reap all the benefits and opportunities for which they had made such an arduous journey. This meant learning English, American history and government, and American political virtues and principles. And it meant showing in word and deed loyalty to their new home. If they wanted to honor their home culture, they were free to do so on their own time through civic organizations, church leagues, private language school, and celebrating national holidays. ]]
Duh, the big difference in those days was WHITE SUPREMACY. 150 years ago the U.S. created a wall of apartheid for brown-skinned peoples in Mexico while opening the doors to boatloads of whites from Europe, asking them only to leave Europe's languages and political allegiances behind, never mind the problem with Roman Catholicism, it was ironed-out.
Today white supremacy is kaput in the U.S., yet the same paradigm of apartheid of Mexicans continues like the Titanic heading full speed for the iceberg. The entire debate on "comprehensive immigration reform" by the two major parties is a SHAM because the only true permanent reform is INCORPORATING MEXICO INTO THE U.S. AS 10 NEW STATES and making it work. Until the Megamerge Dissolution Solution is on the table with both parties, the whole debate is STUCK ON STUPID and is a running comedy show, with the Republicans fighting to keep things from changing, and the Democrats fighting to legalize Mexicans only because they think they will vote Democratic, but somehow will blindly follow the current leaders and not have their own. Both sides have totally closed minds. It's SICK.
A 60-state US will be far stronger economically, socially, politically, and militarily. It's time to rise above party politics and unite on this issue, agreeing only to bicker about timing, phasing, and funding. When when when will the big brains in both parties wake up and catch up with me? I'm sitting on the solution and nobody wants to try it.
