I am here today because I had some time to kill.
But I never come on these threads anymore, just like the other 50,000 people registered at this site.
Because of stupid posts just like yours.
We just leave the 100 or so of you that inhabit these threads to continue to post the same inane drivel back and forth to each other like you've been doing for the last seven or so years.

Are you citing official Free Republic policy? You mods are so reluctant to let us know what that is while it's so much easier to ambush us when we aren't able to read your minds. If you and you're co-moderators wouldn't mind, we "Border Wedgies" need to know how far we can express our views and opinions before you're Californian knot-headed sense of "Political Correctness" (aka The Frankfurt School) makes you ban us because your twisted panties causes you discomfort.
I've seen time and again brilliant minds thrown off this forum for the sole reason that their questions couldn't be answered honestly. Through all that I kept the faith that FR (JR) was just indulging in too much Wall Street Journal or the counsel of those who are raking it in because of illegal labor. Perhaps your lifestyle leads you to believe that a self-respecting individual wouldn't stoop to menial labor and that "other people" need to be employed for those functions, especially so because "no American would do it".
You have the cart before the horse on the entire situation (if you aren't part of the corrupt Cheap Labor pushers). American wages were always an earned reward for superior service and innovation, not at all an enemy of corporate profit. When that "corporation versus the yokels" attitude set in, thanks to the nickel-grubbing standards set by boards running scared after the dot com failures, outsourcing and utilization of "questionable yet defensible" labor became standard while our government (through effective lobbying) relaxed the laws to let this happen. What was Halliberton about to begin with...mining I think.
Screwing American labor has not gone unnoticed by the laborers, a group who has been told to reeducate themselves to adjust just to see the rug pulled from under them again. The Blue Collar class is HUGELY angry to see their jobs replaced by aliens who accomplish them by living three families to a house and offshore contracts that never deliver quality. They have been betrayed for the profit margin by real traitors and the chickens are coming home to roost.
Bottom Line: Get with what's good for America in the long run or get gone. Short-term profiteers are scummy pirates not even deservikng of the name (as pirates shared the booty and governed themselves democratically). Installing a sub-class of menials for the convenience of high-contributing donors and their pampered wives insures that sub-class eventually running violent in revolt somewhere down the line.
Learn to operate your mower. Employ the local kids for menial jobs. Report illegals to the authorities - most of them are steeped in criminality when you encounter them - note the multiple IDs they have with their face but different names. If you folks who are doing well don't help in this effort to repudiate corruption it will come back on you. People see who goes on your property.
If you're doing right you have no problem. If you're part of the corruption you are the problem.
Thanks for your support, howlin.
FR would be a dull place without your sweet and well reasoned discourse.
Of course, I've also been known to appreciate nails on a chalkboard, burning tires, and chewing on tinfoil.
