We must help those coming into our country, illegally, but only when certain demands and requirements are agreed to -- none of which should be political; all of which should be in compliance with existing law and sound accounting practices.

Obama to ask for more than $2 billion in emergency funds to stem immigration influx  —  The Obama administration, in a dramatic escalation of its border-control strategy, will seek  —  more than $2 billion in emergency funds to help stem an influx of Central American women and children entering …

Editor’s notes:  An alternative to federal monies would be to require the Democrat Party to pay for those coming into this country illegally.  After all,  it is the Democrat Socialists who believe in an open border policy.  Someone should tell them to pay the bill,  seriously. 

Understand that a two billion dollar fund has far less than a billion dollars in “street value,”  by the time we take out for interest, transference of funds to other federal/Utopian projects,  and the supposed cost of oversight.  In the end,   it is doubtful that more than 40 cents on the dollar will actually be spent in the care and supply of the young people streaming across our borders.   

We will not know for certain,  however,  because there is never a serious accounting on any federally funded allocations.  You should know that a “serious accounting” is uncomplicated and straightforward,  the very opposite of what our government presents.   You should know,  without a doubt,  that a "10 page ledger" (for example)  versus a "400 page ledger,"  both dealing with the same federal program, is the difference between a straightforward accounting of taxpayer monies and a nefarious cover-up,  the facts of which are hidden from view but in "plain sight,"  buried within the pages of an incomprehensible budget/accounting statement.  

As an example of a "serious accounting" presentation,  a ledger on this money  would begin with a total amount,  followed by line items showing where the money came from including the amounts borrowed from ourselves (T bonds and the like) and from outside sources (China, Japan and the like),  the rate of interest and that cost in dollars. 

There would, also,  be a series of line items detailing all expenditures (cost of money management,  agencies costs,  and allocations to state and private agencies receiving the funding). 

Since the Utopian Socialists running this country,   no longer write and approve budgets,  we should not expect any sort of accounting of this money,  but we can expect that some of it will go to ACORN or the AFL-CIO or Greenpeace,  or funneled off for energy  “investments” or whatever this bunch of crooks decides to do with the money,  since practicing law and order is not a priority in an Anarchal/Utopian  world.  

Do our several border states need help to pay the bill for this created crisis?  Of course.  But a deal should be struck, one that demands border security and obeyance as to all federal laws, especially those immediately affecting this situation.   

Such requirements would meet with public approval since we would be demanding law and order,  not new legislation or a larger federal bureaucracy.  In fact,  the expansion of government (new agencies,  offices,  cars, etc.)  should be specifically excluded with the allocation these funds.  

THAT is what should happen,  but watch as the feckless John McCain and his Progressive/Establishment  buds,  start crying for a "humanitarian solution," without giving any thought to considerations detailed in this post.  Any allocation that puts "trust of Obama and his cronies" at the center of the expense of this money,  should be resisted.  They are not trustworthy as to our laws or our money  . . . . . .  crooks and liars never are.
