Illegal Immigration And Parties

Words by Diego Torres

You know how you cannot get into a party without being invited? Well, that is pretty much America. The US is this really great party and just about everybody wants in, but like previously mentioned, you have to be invited.

That is exactly the problem with this party, not everyone is invited. It just so happens that some people want to get in by any means necessary, so they find some way in. For the sake of argument and to hold some relevance to the title, let’s say it is an illegal way.
The host would not want people who were not invited to get into the party. As a result we get things like gates, velvet rope, locks, and bouncers to prevent the uninvited from getting in.

So, let’s say you threw a raging rave, 48 hours of nonstop partying. You obviously did not invite everybody in town, but word has spread about your grand ol’ party, and everybody is looking for a way in. The security is not the most efficient, and you can tell because by the 22nd hour of the party the number of invites does not match the number of people.

Time to act. Maybe you could’ve avoided the situation by getting more security in the first place, but it is not the time for maybes.

You have a budget of only $5,000, a problem inside and out, and a party to run. What are your options? In a perfect world, you would have enough money to hire enough security and take out the many who have already gotten inside. Also you would be able to increase security so that it stops happening. (If you are wondering what would happen in a perfect world, there would be no need for security in a perfect world. Everyone would be invited). Sadly, your party is not in a perfect world, not even in a pseudo-perfect world, so it is time to get cost affective. Hiring enough staff to get all the people who do not belong in the party would cost far too much (about $10,000) compared to just buffing up security outside so that people could stop finding ways to get into the party (about $5,000).

You decide to call the operation Hectic Rave. The initial HR plan was to get more security and take out the ones that got in illegally. The best (and most practical) solution however, seems to be that you be cool with those that have already gotten into the party and increase security outside to stop any further unwanted entrance. Operation HR would cost about $4,437.

So now you’re “cool” with those that got in without an invitation from the 16th hour and below. Instead of “cool,” let’s call it… oh, “amnesty” sounds good. Then you set operation Hectic Rave into motion, which will cost you $4,437. Let’s call that HR 4437 for short. And then we all have fun at the party.
