Now is the time to do a census of illegal aliens on welfare. Let’s really see if this is about jobs or transfer payments.

Indeed. Again they prove its all about cheap jobs for them. Ignore the constitution, decency and the law, as long as we get our cheap labor. Tens of millions of Americans are without a job for a year or more, but we are to believe Mexican, er I mean, illegal immigrants are not competing for jobs.

It still makes them looters in the eyes of Ayn Rand. These business interests are betraying a greater moral purpose.

Except you are breaking the law when you use illegal immigrants.

"include lawmakers from both sides of the aisle, as well as labor, business, law enforcement, ethnic organizations, religious groups, and the high-tech industry"

All these have their own special interest in what they will gain. I fully expect them all to claim they are doing their lord's work.

In cities like mine, the immigrant legal or illegal is not the bottom of the wage pool; that is the inner-city felon on papers who is restricted to the areas serviced by bus transportation. However, we know that if you increase the supply of a commodity, the price tends to drop, and C of C sees labor as an undifferentiated commodity.
They just don’t want their maids and gardeners deported.

“So the CoC apparently knows that the climate for aupport of illegal aliens will be even less in a couple of years than it is now-now why would that be the case? “

Because Obamacare will sink the democrats in 14 and 16 and the republicans are not pro immigration like the democrats are.

“Indeed. Again they prove its all about cheap jobs for them.”

I don’t think that is it.

I think they want low wages for low inflation for low interest rates.

Any spike in interest rates will blow up the US govt. budget, business budgets, household budgets and possibly the world’s financial system.
