so I did as well. I fully realize immigrants are not as welcome ANYWHERE in the US as the president would have us believe. ESL departments locally (Northeast) haven't been able to keep up with the influx for many, many years. I recall speaking to the head of an ESL department 8 years ago who expressed these very sentiments and immigration has exploded since that time.
I also agree wholeheartedly that it is not the individual region championing illegal immigration but big (and now small) business in order to remain 'competitive' because it's an issue I'm extremely pissed off about. Again, I was referring strictly to the region featured in the article.
We're on the same page.
