We are becoming a third world country because we are importing third world poverty thru our immigration policies. Most of the 1.2 million immigrants who enter legally are poor and uneducated and almost all of the 500,000 illegals who come each year are poor and uneducated.
At the same time, we are almost chasing out our manufacturing base with a combination of mandates and regulations. Huffianton used to be a conservative and then she turned liberal. Maybe she’s back on her meds and becoming conservative again?
Dems RINO’s and corporate America keep screaming for amnesty for illegal immigrants. I have a proposal. Since corporate America and small businesses hired these workers at reduced wages, I would accept amnesty but why should only the illegal immigrant pay the penalties to citizenship. After all the businessmen who hired him in the past years dumped the burden on the US taxpayers and they need to pay a penalty also. Let us say Lee Ling overstayed his VISA and while in US got a degree in accountant. Guarantee some small accounting firm hired him under the table at cut rate wages because he cannot prove he is in the US legally. Now Mr Ling can be a citizen, and part of the process of amnesty is he must list all his employers during his illegal years in the US. Those employers will owe Mr Ling the difference between the wages of an American accountant and his illegal cut rate wage. After all the employer made profit on ill gotten exploitation of Mr Ling. Furthermore the wage difference also represents taxes the US gov would have gotten in the last ten years (a shortfall that was made up by US taxpayers) plus penalties that must be paid immediately. Thus if the Chamber of Commerce wants amnesty for illegals, they better be prepare to pay Mr Ling lump sum for his exploited wage difference of ten years and pay the US gov and local gov taxes that would have been collected for the difference in wages. My rationale is Chamber of Commerce is also part of the illegal immigration problem, and they should also be part of the compensation process for amnesty.

It’s what the elite in this country want. Cheap labor they can control. Slavery if they had their choice. The Oligarchy believes in the divine right of kings and the middle class gets in the way.
