Choosing Whether To Value, Or Devalue Children

 EVERY CHILD, accompanied or otherwise, who through bad judgment seeks entry, legal or otherwise, into the United States of Animosity, is a precious cargo of infinitely valuable worth, skin color notwithstanding.This assertion is predicated upon the universally accepted eternal verity of the Christian faith, among others, that all human lief is precious and priceless. Accordingly, its inherently infinite value is not diminished by circumstances such as childhood, poverty, or legal status as an immigrant. Therefore, it is arguable that to separate immigrant children from their parents is an act of cruelty, and that any Christian who votes for and supports a national president who institutes this policy is acting contrary to the precepts of the Christian faith, one of which was, according to scripture, spoken by Jesus Christ, when he said "welcome the stranger". He did not qualify which strangers to welcome according to immigrant legal  status or skin color. And yet, it is the evangelical Christian community which most ardently supports Donald Trump, and which is most stridently opposed to the United States of A. receiving and accepting into society illegal immigrants, adult or children. arguably, each child is a future source of great prosperity for the United States, a person who will grow up and earn more than a million dollars over the course of a lifetime, who will produce millions of dollars of prosperity and wealth for society, including him or her self.and will pay  hundreds of thousands of dollars in taxes to society. the United States has a low birth rate and an aging population, with a diminishing work force and a growing community of retired and elderly people, people whose welfare, to one extent or another, will be the responsibility and burden of the working community.When Social Security was started in 1935, each retiree was supported by thirty three working tax paying people. Over the decades, the workforce has not maintained the rate of growth as the retired community, and now fewer than three workers supports each retiree. The Social Security trust fund, and many other forms of wealth, public and private, re suffering similar declines as the number of working age people becomes increasingly insufficient to support a growing, population of elderly people who are no longer producing wealth, but instead living off of previously accumulated wealth. In short, what America needs is an infusion of very young people, from any source available, to ensure a future or prosperity production. skin color, ethnicity is less important than future productivity and economic viability. Whatever the skin color and language spoken, whether the future workers are produced domestically or by foreigners does not alter these facts.From the Christian, capitalistic point of view, these thousands of children chowing up at America's southern border are a pearl of great price a priceless gift. the trick now is to convince the native born white skinned conservative evangelical Christians of this rather basic, easy to understand reality, a reality accessible to anyone of reasonable intelligence and moral character,the sort of folks which seem to be in very short supply among the conservative Christian community in these United States of Animosity.
