text: why are our boders wide open? why are our borders wide open when we are told terrorists are everywhere and planning to kill us?  how much money is spend on police and security at our airports, when anyone can walk over the border?  could it be cheap labour?  why are illegals allowed to work and protest in the street?  if i did something illegal i'd get arrested.  isn't it time we work up to the fact that our nation is no longer a nation of laws but a nation run and manipulated by big powerful corporations?  i appreciate how hard illegal immigrants work and how much they want to come here but that isn't the point.  the concept of a nation is what binds is people together, culture and security.  with wages going down and our borders wide open our security is being destroyed.  our culture needs to bind a people together.  laws need to be inforced, not sellectivly ignored.  i can live without fast food chains and convenience stores and slave labour. why are our borders wide open when we are told terrorists are everywhere and planning to kill us?    terrorists come on planes and over-stay their visas!!!!   they don't cross the border illegally!!!!    how much money is spend on police and security at our airports, when anyone can walk over the border?    i work about 35 feet from the border and i can tell  you that not anyone can walk across the border!!!!  it takes about 2 hours, documents, and a handful of questions in english for you to be able to cross the border!!!!  could it be cheap labour?    immigrants come to work and they are hired partially for cheap labor but also because they do work that most americans won't do!!!!  why are illegals allowed to work and protest in the street? if i did something illegal i'd get arrested.    don't assume everyone who protested were illegal....  i for one was not... and i saw many african americans protesting along w/ us!!!!!  isn't it time we work up to the fact that our nation is no longer a nation of laws but a nation run and manipulated by big powerful corporations?    no we still have laws but they can be manipulated by what americans truly worship and it's called $$$$$$$$$$$
