It's obvious. It's to line the purses of business. Understand this: Corporations/businesses/persons who hire Illegaliens and make a profit from "cheap" labor contribute much to Bush's campaign. If this passes, any business may then advertise a $20/hr job for minimum wage and legally hire an Illegalien to "fill the void". THE ONLY ONES BENEFITTING FROM THIS WOULD BE FELONS WHO HIRE ILLEGALIENS. With the passing of this, there goes the American standard of living as we knew it.
This proposal is to give amnesty to Felon businesses that hire Illegaliens and undercut the American worker, yet it's supposed to be a "compassionate" proposal. "Compassion" would show the door to those who willfully violate US immigration law and severely penalize those who aid them, and IMO, the penalties should be to the brink of their bankruptcy.
We aren't exporting our jobs to those places fast enough; now we've come to the point we're going to let them come here and take them. But don't expect any "conservative" politicians to stand in the way.
What do you mean by "our" jobs. Is a business not free to hire who they want where they want? The Business "owns" those jobs not those that fill them.
