We went to Chili's tonight and there were a bunch of hard-working teens in there. A little raucous, but hard-working. I'd take one of them over 1000 illegals anyday.
This is a big surprise? Not to anyone with half a brain.
Not a peep from Bayourod? Wassup with dat?!
It seems our economy is being destoyed by both of America's political party. Personally, I have voted pub over the years because of the doctrine they espouse as their platform. NOWDAYS, there is not much difference in the domestic policies of politicians.
It may indeed be time for a third party representing conservative moral values and politicians who will represent the people.
One way to fight back is to take notes.I you suspect a job is being done illegaly by illegals turn in names and numbers to the State contractors license boards. Contact appropriate agencies about workmans comp and insurance ( usually permit and resources). Most all states post contractors licenses as public info. Our taxes pay these slackers to sit in their cushy offices and collect pay checks so lets put them to work.
FUBAR. Corporate $lobbyist$ control over US immigration and China policies has put the country's citizens on the downslope.
And as if this isn't enough,the "rights" groups are demanding that illegals receive a "living wage" for their menial work.While a teen might settle for wages that may put spending money in his pockets,the same job for an illegal may have to support a wife and children.
"The uncomfortable reality, as Andrew Sum sees it, is that there's a direct link between the steep national decline in teen employment rates and the growing practice of businesses hiring illegal immigrants and paying them off the books."
I've been saying this for the 2-1/2 years I've been here on FR. It's true...our policies are totally shafting our teens who are not "college" material and who prefer to be employed in the trades.
I know this post is days old but I'm just getting around to reading it. It seems to me that what we need is a movement like the Minutemen to go into businesses and check the immigration status of its employees, file a suit against the company and prevent the illegals from working. I don't know what the legal recourse would be, but I'm sure there is a Freeper who can find the legal means to make this happen.
But this primes the pump for the future. Future homeless, future those without health insurance, future everything that bureaucrats depend on in order to justify their existence.
You will NEVER see bureaucrats put themselves out of a job. Only our elected officials can do so.
