Review of Forbidden Passage

. . . it becomes less a matter of whether or not "crime pays," and more of a question of if "crime" or "illegality" can even exist at the Upper Echelons of U.S. Wealth. As the Good Book teaches us, Providence picks financial "Winners" and "Losers"--not Man. FORBIDDEN PASSAGE tends to ignore this fact, as it makes out that nearly EVERYONE in this world has a place in the line to move to America. This wrong-headed notion, of course, leads to such outrages as our important harbors and vital wetlands being constantly polluted with the remains of chained-up foreigners who would have been much better off staying at home, as Fate intended. However, FORBIDDEN PASSAGE reveals that when the Fake News Media gives overseas people the false impression that America is a Land of Milk and Honey, and that all they need to do is bribe a few corrupt foreign functionaries to live on Easy Street in the USA, things work out just as horrendously for the would-be newcomers as it does for actual American citizens, if not more so. Of course, this does not mitigate the main problem with the existing fiasco, which is nearly buried by FORBIDDEN PASSAGE. Imagine that you're taking your young daughter for a stroll along a wharf some day, and as she's trying to spot swordfish or whales in the adjacent waters when suddenly the unclothed form of some line-jumping dude floats by--face up! Would your young princess EVER be able to get over such a traumatizing event?
