The situation at the border between the US and Mexico is baffling to say the least.

Why is the most powerful and richest country on the planet willfully letting its border in a total state of disarray where pretty much anyone can get in, while at the same time having very tight and secure regulations at its airports and most seaport?

This isn't even a political issue as both Republicans and Democrats have done nothing to stabilize the problem.

Let's not also forget that while Mexico is screaming bloody murder over Arizona's law; Mexico is one of the worst offender in the world when it comes to human rights abuse against illegal aliens.

The problem with the US is that we do not have a modern immigration policy. Look at Canada, they are always updating their laws, making it relatively easy for businesses to sponsor people that meet certain type of activities that lacks the proper amount of qualified workers.

On the other side in the US, we still have an archaic system that hasn't been updated for a few dozens years! The H1B Visa system is one of the only way US businesses can bring qualified workers, but it is so poorly run that guys like the latest Times Square bombers got an H1B Visa while working a seemingly low qualified job in the accounting field. Let's also look at the green card lottery which gives green cards via a lottery system. While at the same time, US businesses have a need for low qualified labor that is not readily available.

Now the problem is that there are at least 10 to 20 millions illegals living in the US and we all know that no one would ever dare to start mass deportation. I am not sure what can be done to fix that problem. On 1 side you have the Republicans who vehemently oppose amnesty while on the other side you have the Democrats who would love to do just that.

Let's not also forget the some 10 to 15 millions legal immigrant or non immigrants in the US who follow the rules and would probably be left out of the equation if an amnesty is granted for the illegals!

As for the Arizona law, I read it, there is nothing in there to salivate about. Can a police officer profile Hispanics, sure. But it remains a fact that in order to be asked for immigration justification, you first have to be arrested for something ranging from a traffic violations up to a more serious felony. Also, I haven't heard anyone complain about the fact that border patrol can stop you and ask you for papers at any time. Anyone who drives not too far from the border can attest to that.
