text: A protest march alone does not create a sustainable economy, which is the problem in Mexico.  We can simply choose to reform our immigration laws, and it's done.  They need to spend decades working on strengthening their economy.  It's not politics at issue down there, it's economics.  So if they put all that effort into a march there--the effect would be precisely nothing.\n\nNot to mention that not all of the immigrant workers in the US are from Mexico.     \n\nThey have come here to try and make a better life, as my ancestors did, and yours.  That openness is part of the character of America, and I don't want to see that change.  I don't want the US to be like all the European countries who are scared of immigrants from Turkey.  I want us to be the ones who make it work.  \n\nWe rely on their labor, plain and simple.  For years we have let illegal immigration go on--don't ask don't tell, if you will--but now security concerns have made us crack down.  So we're changing the game halfway through, and they're calling foul.  We need to legally open channels for people who just want jobs, so that we can maintain the border security that we need.  The current system is a mess.
