The Price We Pay . . . Population vs Immigration

The price of anything is not always measured in dollars and cents. Occasionally, we are assessed a cost that we are unaware of . . . or worse - we think about it but ignore the consequences. As more and more people are compressed into smaller and smaller communities, legislators, claiming to protect us, pass laws restricting human behavior California passes more than one thousand laws every year - many of these laws replace individual responsibility with legislative oversight. Individual freedom becomes a price we pay. Unauthorized or illegal immigration is currently a divisive issue in the U.S. and the potential price to be paid in terms of personal freedom or exposure to terrorism is yet unknown. I have attempted to present an impartial examination of population and immigration issues in the hope that we, as a society, might recognize the "The Price We Pay" if we continue to ignore these issues.
