My friend Mryna's imediate family just got lucky. And they had to go to Italy first - this was back in the 80's.

We turned a boat full of Jewish refugees away.

We haven't always helped refugees.

And then thinking of the "narrative" of our media during the aftermath of Katrina - we couldn't even help our "supposed" internal "refugees".

We truly are talking about mass orphanages here. A radical expansion of our public schools. When it hits the average Republican's property taxes (our prop taxes go towards education in NJ) - they are going to flip. So what other services are we going to have cut?

It would be immoral to keep these kids permanently detained. They are going to need orphanages that can handle their needs and give them some kind of normalcy. And adoption is out of the question. I consider the foster to adoption "product" a part of the fertility industrial complex . . . Having seen three couples go through that and who have warned my husband and me to avoid it at all costs and adoption in general at all costs - the families that can afford it without state help are probably going to hesitate.

Those aren't abandoned, neglected and abused kids. Their parents loved them soooo much they put them on this path. They are going to want their children back the first chance they get.
