THE COWBOY SOLUTION
In the past, OBAMA said he wants us to cut the amount of gasoline we use . . .
. . . maybe you'll recall his genius solution was to keep your tires inflated.
Well, I have a better idea:
The best way to stop using so much gasoline is to deport 15 million illegal immigrants! That would be 15 million less people using our gas. We've already seen that this will cost us nothing; because all we have to do is put the word out on the street that we're going to enforce a few existing immigration laws - like the good folk did in Arizona - and the illegals will pack up and move all by themselves.
Fifteen million fewer people at the pump means more gas for the rest of us - this is the law of supply and demand - the price of gas will come down . . .
Bring our troops home from Afghanistan to guard the borders, and when they catch an illegal immigrant crossing the Border, hand him a canteen, rifle and some ammo and send his ass to Afghanistan . . .
Tell him if he wants to come to AMERICA, he must first serve a tour in OUR military . . .
Give him a soldier's pay while he's there and tax him on it . . .
After his tour, he will be allowed to become a citizen since he defended this country . . .
He will also be registered to be taxed and be a legal resident....
This option will probably deter illegal immigration and provide a solution for the troops in Afghanistan and the aliens trying to make a better life for themselves . . .
If they refuse to serve, ship them to Afghanistan anyway, without the canteen, rifle or ammo . . .
Problem solved!

I am still convinced that Robert Heinlein's ideal of providing the privilege to vote to those members of society that have served to defend the society is worth implementing.
ReplyDeleteThe cowboy solution: I couldn't agree more.
ReplyDeleteHeinlein was a flaming socialist. Interesting that he said something relevant. Must have been after he matured.
ReplyDeleteballclamp, check your facts. Heinlein was a libertarian.
ReplyDeleteCripes there you go makin sense again!
ReplyDeleteMore specifically, I believe Robert Heinlein had an innate ability to sense the culture of the day and tailor his statements & writings to it.
ReplyDeleteWorks for me.
