After reading Ian Nachreiner’s editorial “America: No Vacancy,” two questions come to mind. First, what is the point of this column? All your “sources” come from the same meta-news Web site whose bias happens to align with yours. Coincidence? Also, the way you excessively capitalize words and use footnotes reminds me of last year’s humor column. Are you attempting to start an intelligent debate? Because it seems this column is designed to create letters to the editors (maybe that’s a Mustang Daily requirement).
Secondly, I’m disappointed with your creativity regarding solving this problem of illegal immigrants. You claim more than 10 million jobs have been taken by illegal immigrants but what is your proposed solution? Deport them? How much money and time would that take to implement? Instead, I propose we offer illegal immigrants jobs as jurors. No legal American wants to serve on a jury (regardless of civic duty), and they don’t want the $15 per day. Who could argue if the courthouse “hired” an illegal immigrant for jury duty instead of you?
