Kate Gordon on Border Crisis | National Catholic Reporter by MSW. MGB: A heart wrenching story that is undoubtedly repeated every day, although now Honduran children are added to the mix.  Unlike the tragedy of Isaac, there is now a law to at least consider the cases of these children, as signed by President Bush.  Still, more is needed, although I can't see this Congress (either side) doing it.  Sadly, the Democratic Senate bill is so draconian already that it does not include much room to make things worse.  The better answer is to simply drop all restrictions and get rid of right to work laws.  That will have the effect of Food, Inc. no longer hiring undocumented workers - because it can't keep them as slaves in the shadows of work camps or company trailer parks.  Immigration for work will decrease, but it will increase for humanitarian reasons - which is not a bad idea either.
