As I write this article there are thousands of people walking, riding part way, determined to enter the United States, legally or otherwise to join the 20+ million other illegal immigrants already in the country.
America has raised government, a standard of living, and a security level to a point never before seen anywhere in the world. And yet, we live in a country of contradictions and dichotomy. How did we get to a place where so many Americans question the most successful social and political culture in human history? We have self-government, capitalism, freedom of speech, freedom of religion, freedom to defend oneself, the freedom to be all you can be, and yet America is viciously disparaged by millions who, at the same time, are reaping its benefits. How did this happen? How did we get here?
