5. Those fences were to keep people in... |

The ones the teabaggers want are designed to keep people out.
There is quite a difference.
People will risk death to get IN to the United States.
People were risking death to get OUT of places like East Germany and the Soviet Union.
Communist countries didn't have much to offer to potential immigrants as their economies kinda sucked.
I agree the idea of a fence is stupid and a waste of money, but at least ours isn't designed to keep Americans from trying to escape.
