Letter body: 

The middle class of this country is being forced to subsidize the Central American poor and will for the next 20 years.

These unlawful immigrants are being shepherded into this country by the drug cartels.

At the same time, the cartels are using this chaos to bring in more illicit drugs, gang members, etc.

We are also serving as a relief valve for Mexican and Central American oligarchs who run these countries.

Instead of getting revolution or needed change, they will get remittances from these illegal immigrants and thereby bolster their corrupt governments
