Musing -- solution to the immmigration crisis?

Mike Crockett
It's how I am going to solve the immigration crisis.

=p

I'm going to "buy" the small square of land the juts into Mexico from New Mexico and create an "international enterprise zone" employing u.s. citizens and migrants, hoping to minimize make the conflict that arise from border crossings (death of cattle, death of hundreds who do not realize it takes days in 120-degree desert to reach Phoenix), despite "growing pains" of any "government" project. The area's half-way between Tuscon and El Paso too and hopefully far enough away from anyone who would be a bit "unhappy..."... See More

=p x 2...

I figure if the federal government is willing to put so many billions into this and that, they would have no problem funding the project for, say, 20 billion to have me solve the immigration crisis for them. That's only 4 billion more than the "big dig." And who knows? I might even be able to finally build a decent car in this country too, though I'd have to cut some sort of deal with the Auto Workers Union, I'm sure. I'd probably leverage with Ford - they seem to put out a few decent autos every once in a while...

Now, though, for the hard part: I need to learn Spanish...

I was just remembering that I forgot to write what was I was going to write: "All this is hypothetical anyway - I am too old, 'too old to begin the training...' Daniel, on the other hand... There may be something to Al Gore's SNL skit-spoof about Arnold Schwarzenegger being the governor of 'Mexifornia...' Daniel could be the governor of 'NEW-NEW MEXICO'..." =p
