I just got out of a bad relationship

Eight years and the only thing I have to show for it is pain, and suffering.

I lost my well paying job - probably to an immigrant - and we had to foreclose on our house. I managed to find employment again but I am getting paid 20% less and the hours are longer.

My back started to hurt and I was having trouble sleeping at night so the doctor prescribed pain killers and a sleep aid. It helped at first but then I needed something stronger.

The neighbourhood is not good. A few times I came home early from work and I found a strange man trying to get through the window. I started keeping a gun under the bed because my wife is often home alone. I need to build a fence. Or maybe a wall.

But things are looking up. I have a new boss who speaks my language. Promises that things will be great and he will do great things. I know he will.

THERE are an estimated 11m-12m immigrants living in the United States illegally, most of them Latino. Many have families, jobs and property, and far deeper roots in America than in their countries of origin. President George W Bush tried to pass a law to regularise their status, but was thwarted in Congress. Barack Obama is faring little better. Last week the president angrily declared that he had given up passing an immigration-reform bill this year, and vowed to do what little the law allows him to alone (as he has with illegal immigrants who came to the United States as children). Why can't America fix this problem?

Remember black,

When your wife leaves you for a womanizing, abusive alcoholic you have to ask youself:

What kind of person were you to her?

America needs to take a long, hard look in the mirror because the an ideological change is necessary. Unfortunately, that does not come easy.
