No, I opposed "government-subsidized" illegal immigrant labor. You know, the type where employers pay a third world wage, knowing that taxpayers will fund healthcare, education, etc. etc. etc.
The fact is we can cut down the percentage of our income that we spend on the items that don't help us gain ground in the world market.
There is nothing that we do that cannot be done by slaves elsewhere in the world for less money. And support for forfeiting defense-related industries (like steel); or basic necessities like food is idiotic.
Why you globalists continue to blather this utopianism in the face of the perfect example of what happens when you rely on other countries for basic necessities is beyond me. I am of course, talking about oil. What do you think would happen if we got into a major war having given away our steel industry?
The reason our steel industry went out of business is because labor was too expensive. Many other industries are facing the same difficulty while housing has couped by using cheap labor. And the fact is, the only way our Oil companies and Universities can find an alternate energy source is by relying on investments.
We must allow American big business to operate as efficiently as possible while we are in the transition stage of entering a world economy.
