OPEN BORDERS: What could go wrong?

| July 12, 2024 1:00 AM

Let’s see, if we take prayer and the Ten Commandments out of school, remove Christian morality from society, prevent parents from using physical discipline, teach that guns and self-defense are evil, and just slap criminals on the wrist. Hmmm, what else? Oh yeah, let’s require law-abiding citizens to feed and house those convicted of capital crimes for the rest of their natural lives. Can’t let teenagers learn the work lives. Can’t let teenagers learn the work ethic until they’re 18. How about hiring more liberal judges to personally interpret the Constitution, and make new laws without waiting on Congress? Can’t forget to continue growing the national debt so our children and grandchildren can truly experience what slavery is all about.

Our open borders are such a swell idea to welcome misunderstood terrorists and violent criminals who just didn’t fit into their country’s social scene.

And let’s pile on more regulations on private business to tell them what to do, without government bearing any of their financial risk.

Utopia makes so much sense when the boundaries of personal responsibility are removed. What could go wrong?
