I too have quite a bit of experience with this subject..I live in El Paso, Texas, we are on the front lines so to speak..these issues are a daily topic and occurance around here. Serious changes need to be made asap.

I just think of some poor farmer or something that wants to move here. Basically they make you buy your way in. Differs somewhat from
"Not like the brazen giant of Greek fame,
With conquering limbs astride from land to land;
Here at our sea-washed, sunset hates shall stand
A mighty woman with a torch, whose flame
Is the imprisoned lighting, and her name
Mother of Exiles. From her beacon hand
Glows world-wide welcome; her mild eyes command
The air-bridged harbor that twin cities frame.
"Keep, ancient lands, your storied pomp!" cries she
With silent lips. "Give me your tired, your poor,
Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free,
The wretched refuse of your teeming shore,
Send these, the homeless, tempest-tost to me,
I lift my lamp beside the golden door!"
