Mexican Immigration and Voter Empowerment

Earlier on today I was thinking about illegal immigration, then I read from the Bible and got this:

Deuteronomy 10:18 He defends the cause of the fatherless and the widow, and loves the foreigner residing among you, giving them food and clothing. 19 And you are to love those who are foreigners, for you yourselves were foreigners in Egypt.

You may or may not believe in synchronicity; however this issue has not been approached from a Christian perspective. Many of the people claiming Christian perspective have been wanting the Mexicans deported. The people who are in any way against that have been portrayed as liberals, which I am sure some of them are. However the anti-immigration people do not own Christianity, nor should they be allowed to claim to own Christianity.

The issue, is always, is solved by looking at its core. Why are there illegal Mexicans in America? They were welcome in 1980s and 1990s because the economy was booming, and they were taking jobs that American citizens would not take. The economy did less well later, and they became less welcome.

I raise this concern to people who want them deported. What will happen when they are again wanted? Will they be willing to return if they get unceremoniously deported and treated like cattle while they are?

I would put this matter up for a referendum. Let American voters decide what to do with the Mexican illegals. That way nobody will be able to complain, either that "liberal New World Order elites" are flooding the country with foreign illegal migrants or that the conservative business elites are ripping off the American worker without giving the worker a say in the process.

The result will be people feeling empowered, fewer conspiracy theories going around, and American people feeling that their country belongs to them and that their thoughts matter in the running of their country.
