Marco Rubio Warns Of Robot Takeover Of American Economy
Breitbart ^ | February 11, 2016 | Charlie Spierling

Posted on 02/11/2016 12:52:45 PM PST by C19fan

If the Department of Labor continues to make it difficult for companies to hire American workers, Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL) warned, robots would take over key jobs in the economy.

During a town hall in Okatie, S.C., Rubio warned that the Department of Labor was too big, too powerful, and turned into “anti-business agency” that hurt the private sector.

He’s actually making a valid point that is politically stupid. Robotic debate performance with little robots trailing him on the campaign trail. Needs to discontinue this.

And if a robot takes a dump on the lettuce, it’s just oil.

he (Marco) is right about the robots

He is. And he's also correct about Obama knowing exactly what he's doing as he transforms the country.

I wish folks would work hard at getting Jeb and Kasich out of the race. Marco isn't anti-US. He even seems to be coming around about needing to stop the invasion of the US, his only real deficit as a conservative.

Well the Robots certainly hired the right spokesman.

This country would be so much better off if the Congress could be replaced by actual robots instead of the Soros drone models used today.

I, for one, welcome more intelligent staff at restaurants.

Not that I shop at any.

Marco isn’t anti-US

**********************************

Yes he is.
He tried to pass a country-killing amnesty bill that would have rewarded fraudulently documented foreigners and made the citizens pay for it all.

We are already being fleeced by illegal aliens and their employers.
The citizens are paying the true cost of their cheap labor, both financial and human.

Anyone who sides with illegal aliens against the citizens and the rule of law needs to be banished politically.

RUBIO CANNOT BE TRUSTED ON IMMIGRATION!

As Phyllis Schlafly said, “He betrayed us all.”

It is most interesting to go back and see what Rubio had to say about the issues when he made his announcement speech to run for president last April.

This is what he said about Terrorism, the Middle East, Isis:

NOTHING, not a word, but he mentioned CUBA twice!

“Cuban exiles” and “poor families in Cuba”

Here is what he said about immigration:

“modernize our immigration laws”

Yep, THAT is it, except for this in Spanish..

En este pais, ustedes van a poder lograr todas las cosas que nosotros no pudimos.
(In this country, you will achieve all the things we never could.)

How about TRADE: They are busy looking backward, so they do not see how jobs and prosperity today depend on our ability to compete in a global economy.

How ‘bout the 2nd amendment? ZERO

SO...what DOES matter to Marco Rubio?

So Marco Robotio is warning us about robots taking over the place. That is REALLY rich!

Have you heard Rubio in interviews lately? He isn't for the US being over run. What he has is the perspective of being brought up in an immigrant community and having compassion for those who've lived here for decades. Besides that, he's in total agreement that the border has to be sealed before anything can fix the problem.

That's far more understandable than Jeb and Kasich shilling for their cheap labor paymasters or Cruz who wanted (until he started campaigning) increased H1B Visas, five fold, which provide legal labor to undermine US middle class workers, but which is horribly and cynically overused by businesses.

Rubio’s number one problem is the fact that he betrayed all he ever met:

He betrayed his friend, Jeb Bush, who supported him morally and sent him a check even, in his FL congressional and senatorial, state and federal endeavors.

He betrayed the TEA party, who worked avidly to make him Senator of FL, instantly, as soon as he saw the big columns in DC.

He betrayed legal Americans and America with his Gang of Eight.

He still betrays the two, above, when he speaks in Spanish to Jorge Ramos and tells 180 degrees different on amnesty, saying in Spanish that he’ll “keep president Obama’s amnesty deal”, but tells the viewers in English that he wouldn’t.

He betrayed all the FL residents by being absent from DC and not performing his senatorial duties, in pursuit of yet another position.

He never has staying power for more than a few months, after he wins any position.

The media all call him an “establishment insider candidate”. He ran for the senate as an outsider, in the TEA party, and was a total deceiver as soon as he hit DC.

He is, in simple words, Benedicto Arnold to all he ever met, depending on what his incredible political ambitions are.

His second biggest problem is inexperience in the real world.

He has never produced or built anything. He was a lawyer for a very brief time. Other than that he has never even run a taco stand.

I see no reason to have compassion for those who have broken our laws for decades only because they have ripped us off for a long time. They should get in line like everybody else.
