[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]"Democrats have just gone off the rails"

Cardin says we should try to help the migrant caravan.  Seriously? Most of the undocumented migrants end up in Montgomery County, and MoCo wants to use our tax money on lawyers for them.  This just means more of our taxes get siphoned from schools and other county programs to pay for it.

And Cardin wants to send our money to help them come?????   I thought Cardin was a shoe in, but he's gone off the rails as well.[/quote]

It's really a sad situation when someone thinks like this.  We have so many poor and struggling already here in this country, citizens, legal immigrants and illegal immigrants.  We need to devote our resources to those who are living in this country.  We have homeless and jobless here in Maryland that need the help like a solid meal and a warm place to sleep or assistance in finding jobs.  We have some resources, but not enough for all of our homeless and jobless.  And Cardin wants us to spend tax payer money on foreigners in another country who's sole goal is to advance on the US border to violate our immigration laws and put more drain on our public resources.  While I have a lot of sympathy for the struggles that are driving the caravan to seek out somewhere better than where they left, their welfare is NOT our problem.  [b]Our impoverished residents in this country and in this state should be our priority, not Central American refugees trying to enter our country illegally[/b].[/quote]

Maybe the US shouldn't have gone in and destabilized their governments decades ago in order to make it easier for US business interests while creating a power vacuum, and maybe we shouldn't be fighting a senseless drug war that only helps cartels? Maybe we should have thought of that? I know the Governor's race is about Maryland, not US foreign policy, but Senator Cardin is our voice in the federal government. We have to sleep in the bed we make. [/quote]

How bout this, let's take all the migrants in that caravan and divvy them up amongst all the states. Further, for those who end up in MD, lets make sure that instead of putting them in schools in SS and Germantown, that they end up in Bethesda and Potomac schools for a change.  Does that sound cool? Because it's not fair that only certain schools have been taking on the burden of educating these children. I had nothing to do with the decisions that the US govt made years ago so no, I don't feel inclined as a citizen to pay for whatever mistakes  they've made.[/quote]
