There is nothing mysterious about the U.S. immigration crisis, or the presence of twelve million or more illegal aliens, or the fact that many more are coming to a neighborhood near you.
They are coming to the U.S. because they are human beings who have to eat.
They have to eat because they want to live.
They cannot eat and live in their own countries because there are no jobs.
There are no jobs because the monetary policies of the “Washington Consensus” have wrecked their economies.
It has wrecked their economies in order to benefit the financiers who are behind the Washington Consensus, including the ones in their own countries who act as partners in running the lending programs that have caused so much damage.
So what would be more fitting that the bureaucrats and politicians in Washington who approved these policies have the immigrants whose lives they ruined now greeting them with a nod every morning when they show up to mow their lawns, trim their bushes, and repair their homes? Not to mention the ones who are clamoring for social services and amnesty, who march in street demonstrations, who want to bring their relatives into the country with them, who may be starting to claim that the U.S. really belongs to them, and some of whom clog the jails of the border states. Then there are the ones who send billions of dollars home each year to float the economies of their hapless home nations whose domestic economies are so dismally poor.
When I was working at the U.S. Treasury Department there was a joke:
Question: “What did Davy Crockett say when he looked out over the wall of the Alamo?”
Answer: “Where'd all them lawn maintenance guys come from?”
Of course it really isn't a joke, especially when you realize the extent to which illegal aliens who work for low wages undercut the livelihood of so many American citizens. Or when you consider the human misery the illegals suffer from dislocated families, hiding from the law, being without health care, taking abuse from the criminals who transport them across the borders, or living every day in marginal or even subhuman conditions.
The Washington Consensus is the set of monetary and economic conditions imposed through “Structural Adjustment Programs” on developing nations by the International Monetary Fund, along with similar arrangements imposed by the World Bank and other Western political and economic agencies as conditions of receiving loans.
