Sorry we’re short on our freshly baked bread due to yesterday’s organized protests. That was at Trader Joe’s on Monday. So I was affected by the immigration protests. 1 May was called out to be the day without immigrants. Instead of going to work refuse service and protest. Plans by the Bush administration to build a wall along the boarder to Mexico are compensated with a guest worker program that allows illegal immigrants to stay. The battle has started. Opposition in Congress of both side – it’s discriminating or more restriction – and the immigrants fight back for their rights. A new minority raising the voice, like the black people in the 60-ies. Everybody knows the economy would collapse if you really build a wall along the boarder. But it’s hard to sell politically. Who is taking care of your garden, cleaning your apartment, babysitting, collecting your trash, serving your dinner in a restaurant? Everybody knows you cant’ really say they take our jobs. But in times of struggle you need some excuse, you need to be able to point on someone. Another job taken by immigrants. A relationship.
