    If there is a good implication in globalization, it should be immigration where humans across the planet are free to choose where to live without strict national boundaries. It seems that this is the farthest from being the case as immigration restrictions not only has denied the historic truth about this nation being nothing but an outcome of immigration, but also that immigration has become a win card to dirty politics. There is so much hatred, abuse, and hypocrisy surrounding the subject of immigration from the bi-partisan politicians. While many capitalist conservative opportunist contractors and small business owners can not hide their interest in hiring low wage and tip workers in restaurants, farms, janitor services, and construction, their liberal counterparts continue to defend immigration for the wrong reasons: abusing demographic electoral power. The subject of immigration must be approached with more dignity and truth about the benefits and expense of immigration. Phobic stereotyping and falsification is not the way to handle the subject. A balance between the two extremes can be reached by serious and decent re-evaluation of our laws and attitudes governing the subject. The starting point is the realization that our great nation is no more than a composition of immigrants and it continues to be.
