Ratz! I Was Hoping Donald Trump Would Not Stoop To "Politics-As-Usual" Tactics!

Gee...I think I am sadly disappointed that Donald Trump has begun to show signs that he, too, is stooping to the same low practices that politicians have been using for decades to try to sling mud and dirt at the rest of the 'running flock' of candidates.

The campaign strategists probably know there's no way to avoid this kind of practice, since it has been in use for so long, and the rest of the campaign community uses it quite freely.

But I was really hoping The Donald might have enough positivity and forward-thinking political strategy that he would not have to ever stoop to these ugly practices, that, in my (humble) opinion, only serve to demonstrate just how 'childish' and foolish that some of our so-called "leaders" can really be, when they want something strongly enough, y'know?

Why Do We Insist On Building Walls - Instead Of Bridges?

It sometimes seems like many regions of our world are becoming more and more 'isolated', with countries building walls and fences between certain factions of society and certain cultural or economic disparities that accentuate one region's prosperity over a neighboring region's poverty.

Case in point, USA vs. Mexico. We know the U.S. is more prosperous in an overall sense, and has numerous government assistance programs, modern healthcare, minimum wage and labor protection laws, and much more.


Mexico, unfortunately, is not so prosperous, apparently; else the number of border-crossing-illegal-immigrants would not be what it is. Most are seeking "a better life", where they (presumably) can earn much more than what they can earn at home...not to mention all the 'programs', right? 

So...is the right answer really to build impenetrable walls and spend countless billions monitoring, maintaining, and otherwise managing all the goings on that such walls require?
