When everyone is concerned about being Politically Correct, important issues get swept under the rug. For example immigration policies. If you are for new immigration policies in the US, you are often called a racist.

For over 40 years, the US just applies bandages to the problem as it viewed by the government at the time. This just adds to the problem. What we need is long term solutions that help immigrants while balancing the needs of citizens.

I don't have the answers. The solution lies in calm discussion with both sides. The free exchange of ideas is the best way deal with hate and fear.
