I think, unfortunately, that the answer for many is to just build higher walls and have better armed guards.
I think the real lasting answer is a combination of better development abroad and tighter security and better immigration laws at home.
A couple things to think about:
1) if we should share in the development of underdeveloped nations, what form should this take? (i.e. cash will likely just find its way into corrupt pockets)
2) there are already many multinationals on the ground in underdeveloped nations. These nations provide cheap labour to support our high rate of consumption.
3) what would it take to make us poorer? ( by this what I really mean is what would it take for us to consume less?)
