Well then, I guess Mr. Travis won’t object when someone jumps the counter tomorrow morning and illegally helps themselves to a dozen Boston Creams and take a few bucks out of the register on their way out the door.

Sure it’s wrong, unethical,and illegal. But who cares - it’ll stimulate the economy, eh Nigel?

To be a traitor, you first have to be on the right side.

This guy is only on the side of what ever is going to make most money for his company. In fairness, can’t blame him for trying.

Cheap labor is all he is interested in. Like other Rockefeller Republicans. The left supports illegal immigration because they want dependent voters who will vote for big government democrats and goodies and guarantee a permanent Democrat electrical majority.

Normal Americans who have to pay the costs for the illegals 25k/yr English as a second language school bills and emergency room unreimbursed medical care are just useful idiots.

I understand that there is some kind of government form which is said to be difficult to complete that must be filed at tax time to provide proof of qualification subsidy payment. Hope we who do taxes receive information prior to December 31.

And you better have also completed form 34-A, otherwise you are in deep doo-doo! And also check "NO" in the proper box, or you can kiss your qualification subsidy good-bye!

I hope that that was as helpful as your posting was!

Regards,

“I have had my last Dunkin Donut. “

We used to buy them at work to celebrate things.

Never again.

Is Nigel Travis even an American, himself? I ask because 1) his name "sounds" British, and 2) no TRUE American businessman would make the stupid "bumper sticker" claims that he does in this short article. Such as: "I think [legalizing 11 million illegals] will stimulate the economy because they'll have the opportunity to earn great wages." Wow, award him the Dingbat of the Year medal right now!

How many illegals is he willing to have in his house? I’m sure there are quite a few of them tending his property making sub-minimum wage; he should invite them to live with him and his family.

Oh, wait, they don’t have to wait to be asked. They should just come on in and help themselves.

Nigel is just another 1 percenter looking for cheap labor. It will be a cold day in hell before Dunkin’ Donuts ever sees me again.

Opps... I guess I’ll have to acquire the taste of Krispy Kreme, because I won’t eat another Dublin Donuts. What about the real unemployed Americans.

I get 1-2 coffees a day from there.... Not another penny. Im not sure how draining resources at a rate that exceeds collection would benefit the economy. Not to mention all the disease, illiteracy, degenerate and violent culture that gets imported by the millions.

What's your opinion Foghorn J. Leghorn?


“No, No, No. You’re doing it all wrong!”
“That boy’s about as sharp as a bowling ball.”

“Nice mannered kid, just a little on the dumb side.”
“That kid’s about as sharp as a pound of wet liver.”

“You’re way off, I say you’re way off this time son!”
“Nice boy but he’s got more nerve than a bum tooth.”

“Smart boy, got a mind like a steel trap – full of mice”
“He’s so dumb he thinks a Mexican border pays rent.”

“Boy’s gotta mouth like a cannon, always shootin’ it off.”
“This boy’s more mixed up than a feather in a whirlwind.”

“That, I say, that boy’s just like a tatoo, gets under your skin.”
"I say boy, you're like a candle without a wick...ain't too bright!"

“Stop, I say stop it, boy! You’re doin’ alot of choppin’ but no chips are flyin’."
“This is going to cause more confusion than a mouse in a burlesque show.”

“This boy’s making more noise than a couple of skeletons throwin’ a fit on a tin roof.”
“Boy's so dumb, you put his brain on the sharp edge of a razor blade, it would look like a marble rolling down a four lane highway.”










"Any of this gettin' through to you, son?"

Make the most money WHILE NOT BREAKING THE RULES.

Also, the moment they are legal they can no longer be paid an illegal wage, employers must pay FICA, etc etc.

The only “advantage” is in further softening wages in an already soft economy. Any advantage would be short lived as we spin down.

He claimed it "would be a stimulus" because "there's a lot of people who want to work but can't work legally."

One cannot upwardly make this stuff.

It does stimulate the money flow to the wealthy. Food stamps benefit agri-business more than any other group. Housing subsidies (section 8 housing) guarantees landlords the rent will be paid every month and damages compensated. Welfare in general is good for clothing retailers in particular. And on and on and on it goes.

There is just one problem: the productive sector doesn’t grow to maintain this transfer. That wouldn’t bother Mr. Donut Head since he is the receiving end and probably needs some wage workers around the house.
