But a child that has traveled thousands of miles is turned away. Have we forgotten our values and what is written on Miss Liberty. Prior to 1924 people just loaded up on boats and showed up here with no paperwork but of coarse they were from Europe.

Do you have to pay them cash? in other words do they pay taxes on this work? here in Delaware I would say at least 80% of them do not. they only take cash, only pay in cash, and do not pay taxes. this is where I have a big problem
these people need to come to the country legally and pay their way, not me paying their way

Ed, your life is too complicated for me at my age....coordinating pool boys, Molly maids, gardeners, sail boat detailers......

I have a dry erase board that I write down one planned activity for the following day. (PTSD). That gives me one activity to focus on in bed. Tomorrow, it is vacuum the pool.
