What im also trying to say is that this is part of a bigger problem with the system. We go from one extreme to another. For example, let's take 9/11 when alot of things changed in this country...
We go from airline companies being able to outsource airline security to the cheapest (and in most cases least qualified) bidder in the past to setting up Homeland Security and you can't even have a bottle of water or toothpaste. We go from airlines trying to squeeze in as many flights as possible to increase their profits to having to show up 3 hrs ahead of time at the airport. We go from complete freedom of privacy to the rights of government to be able to wire tap you, enter your property without proper warrants and detain you without representation.
I see this in financial reform now as well, we go from 50 years of deregulation and a financial free-for-all to having people decide what bonuses a CEO or executive is entitled to, but that's a whole nother argument..
And now we go from zero immigration reform or policy to racial profiling. I guess there is no middle ground, forethought or moderation, we live on extremes, thats my biggest gripe..
