The Problem With A Closed Door

Personally, the main problem I have with a strict closed door policy is that we (as a nation) tend to make ourselves weaker if it’s enforced. What if the five-year-old immigrant child has in his or her brain the answer to cure cancer? How many immigrants and DACA kids are our future inventors, engineers, teachers, or entrepreneurs who are here to enrich not only their lives, but also are here to enrich the lives of all Americans.
We become stronger as a nation when we invite and help cultivate young, positive minds. I think that one of the problems we have stemming from our current Administration in Washington, DC is that there’s an assumption of negativity associated with immigrants, such as “they’re taking away our jobs”, ect.
Actually, DACA youth and immigrants have done more positive things to strengthen America than they’ve been given credit for. How many refugees and immigrants have came to America with absolutely nothing in their wallets but have enriched our economy and built a business which has provided many jobs for generations within their community?
It would be an outright shame to close the door on a child who may possibly possess the knowledge and wisdom to solve some of our nation’s most challenging and pressing problems we face today. We need to save DACA and help cultivate all creative minds for a stronger nation. – Randolph Randy Camp
