I couldn't agree more...let them fail!! When bailouts are handed to every person and/or business that may be having financial problems (due to their own poor planning) then people stop understanding the meaning of hard-work, of values, of ethics, of pride, of ownership. People start to expect a bailout (or copout)...not because they deserve it, not because they went to school for 10 years to earn what they have, not because they have been with the same company for the last 30 years. In short, people become dependent on the government for their daily needs. Wait a minute, that sounds a lot like socialism...

I agree with lining the border with mines. While I understand that Mexicans are humans too, it is not the United States' responsibility to cater to anyone and everyone that wants to enter our country. If they want to enter the country, then they should do it legally...and learn to speak English. It is amazing to see the costs that companies must pay to provide multi-lingual phone systems and interpreters. If they want to enter our country so badly, then they should be required to speak English, salute the American flag, and pay taxes.
