Oil spill and Illegal Immigration

Well, it seems a major oil slick is headed to the shores of the US.   All of the United States resources are being brought out to stop the oil from reaching land. Once the oil reaches land it will take a massive amount of Federal and State aid to get it out off the land.

Why?

Why not just let the oil come in? We need oil and we need oil to help our economy thrive. Some of that oil will work fine and be no problem at all…

Sounds silly huh?

But that is exactly the Illegal Immigration proponents argument.

Seems to me it’s better to control the flow of oil BEFORE it gets on land. Once it’s on land it sucks resources and the benefit of cheap watered down oil is not worth the trouble…But it’s just an analogy…
