text: I will never, ever understand why immigration to the USA is paraded as a solution to the problems or conditions that move Mexicans etc...to come to America. It seems that the US and the Catholic Church and our Universities should consider addressing the problems or conditions existing in the countries of origin, before everyone automatically assumes that "immigration" is the universal, simple and exclusive solution. 
  
  This is why I have always questioned the motives of those wanting to help immigrants and support massive immigration into the states. Liberals want votes and the Catholic Church wants bodies in its empty churches, plus the billions it gets from government for doing whatever for immigrants.  I think the church and liberals are and have used and exploited immigrants for there own purposes. They care nothing for the crimes people have suffered or the plight of illegals in this country currently.  They care only for there own institutional and political survival and power.
