It's a sham. He wants blanket amnesty, and to call it anything else is a lie. He's selling us out to the big corporations, and that's ripping us off. Those corporations and their workers should be paying taxes and keeping that money in America!!! He signed an agreement with Fox and Martin on the "Americas." He wants to erase borders so we can be like Europe.
The government is saying the illegals are doing the jobs Americans won't do. Well I am in the construction business and I see the illegals doing a LOT of construction work that is puttiing American citizens out of work.
Their work is not only cheap and shoddy, but they work dusk till dawn ignoring work safety practices without overtime pay. They are obviously making the general contractor a lot of money for them to overlook the shoddy workmanship. And whoever takes possession of the building upon completion inherits a LOT of problems because of the poor quality.
All forms of construction are affected, non union and union alike. I am sure there are other cases where illegal immigrants are taking work from Americans.
Service jobs.....Hotels. When was the last time the cleaning maid at a hotel you stayed an english speaking employee? I travel a lot and stay at some decent hotels.
I see it every day.
The jobs Americans won't do are most certainly the ones taken by illegal immigrants. There is truth to that statement! However it is misleading in the context our government explains.
When jobs are performed by illegals, legal workers are not hired. Who can take a job already filled? That becomes a job an American won't do.
Our government is so full of double speak, not only on immigration. but every issue of national concern.
Read my whole post. Plus his plan isnt blanket amnesty, its not removing all penalties for their actions, its intended to get the people to take themselves out of the country. Plus the program with increase border enforcement-if he goes through with it, should not encourage more illegal immigration, he should make it clear its a one time thing thats intended to end this problem for good. Now I agree it wont work, especially since most of them will just have children and stay permenantly. He could make it simplier as I would suggest and just round them up and send them away. However, its not big corporations making money off of the Illegal labor, its usually smaller buisnesses, making tool parts, doing farm work or construction. A lot of it is under the table in the first place. Corporations cant get away with these kind of things, they are too public. As for creating a "Greater North America", maybe Fox and Martin are working on it, but just a reality check for you, GWB isnt selling our soveriegnty to Mexico or Canada. Lose the talking points.
