Bush V. Reagan On Immigration


Scott Summner posted this beautiful central betwixt Ronald Reagan too George Bush Sr. on immigration. Direct link (youtube).

Scott titles the post service "when the GOP withal had around decency," which I intend he should to a greater extent than accurately patch equally "when the ii leading GOP presidential candidates withal had around decency." There are many people inwards the political party -- inwards Congress, governors, patch legislators, losing Presidential candidates, inwards Republican intend tanks too thence forth --with quite sensible ideas on immigration, too amongst the form of personal decency Scott notices inwards the video, too lacking of the presidential candidates today.  There are also many decent too sensible Democrats too.

In this era that the battles inside parties are equally of import equally those betwixt them, nosotros bespeak maintain to last out of the habit of tarring whole parties amongst the behaviors too attitudes of around people inwards them.

Scott also characterizes the fence equally "Bush stakes out a real liberal position on immigration, too and thence Reagan responds from a position fifty-fifty farther to the left.." That's non quite accurate either. While it's accurate that the "left" wants to allow "undocumented immigrants" access to schools too services,  they typically produce non desire to opened upwards project markets. Both Bush too Reagan explicitly welcomed people to come upwards too work. Letting people come upwards too non letting them last is a recipe for disaster. These are instantly libertarian positions, non correct vs. left.

But I'm quibbling. Thanks Scott for a corking video.
