That's an interesting paradox to think about. make it legal and it's no good. why? because as long as it's illegal the people who come in do not qualify for welfare, they don't qualify for social security, they don't qualify for the other myriad of benefits that we pour out from our left pocket to our right pocket. so long as they don't qualify they migrate to jobs. they take jobs that most residents of this country are unwilling to take. they provide employers with the kind of workers that they cannot get. they're hard workers, they're good workers, and they are clearly better off.
Country Jobs Hard Work
I was on television a couple of years ago and the reporter asked me, "how does it feel being on mainstream media? it's not often poets get on mainstream media." i said, "well i think you're the dominant media, the dominant culture, but you're not the mainstream media. the mainstream media is still the high culture of intellectuals: writers, readers, editors, librarians, professors, artists, art critics, poets, novelists, and people who think. they are the mainstream culture, even though you may be the dominant culture."

I think it's very pretty. can it be pretty if no one thinks it's pretty? i think it's pretty. if you're the only one? that's pretty pretty. and what about the boys? don't you want them to think you're pretty? i wouldn't want a boy to think i was pretty unless he was the kind of boy who thought i was pretty.

Do not the rays which differ in refrangibility differ also in flexibity; and are they not by their different inflexions separated from one another, so as after separation to make the colours in the three fringes above described? and after what manner are they inflected to make those fringes?

If you are a designer, sometimes it is better not to delegate, because someone pays money for something that you designed, so it should be exactly the way you want it, exactly the way you would have chosen it. people call me a control freak, and i say, "well, my name is on the shoe." it means the heel needs to be the way i want it and not the way somebody else wants it, and the toe needs to be exactly the way i want it, and the fabric and the material have to be exactly the way i want it. it is not a democracy - it is a dictatorship.
