Striking Out

Here's my American Spectator piece about the May 1 pro-illegal immigration general strike.

"Perhaps it's time for proponents of legalization to rethink their approach to the entire debate. Through their strike, illegals betray a mindset suggesting that their contribution to America is, and would be, primarily economic. What they don't seem to understand is that many, many Americans are willing to give them a full hearing and a fair shake -- but only if we are convinced that the people seeking to earn citizenship in the United States are doing it, not for a paycheck, but out of a real love for this country and a sincere desire to become proud, patriotic Americans."

The first couple of paychecks may get them to think of what to spend it on then what a better life in USA could mean to them then citizenship. Many first time immigrants get the habit of liking the country they settle in.
