Any "guest worker" program, once begun, will receive endless increases in the number of "guest worker passes", by the same greedy employers who want the programs to begin with.

It will morph in no time from 100s of thousands to tens of millions on no time, as the same people who want and approve of it now use whatever number of already approved guest workers as a measure of how well it is doing. (How well for employers.)

And what can be worse than 12 million illegal immigrants? 20 milllon "guest workers" who, with perpetual renewals become semi-permanent stateless workers who are almost never in their home nation and almost always in their "temprary nation", while never a citizen where their work and never involved in being a citizen "at home".

The world already has proven, disasterous examples of massive gues worker programs and in both the sending and receiving nations the countries are socially and politically dysfunctional - the Phillipines, Saudi Arabia, UAE, Dubai and many others.

A massive guest worker program is a time bomb inside a trojan horse.

Awesome, comprehensive speech by the President....one with which I totally agree.

It is strict and fair. It is ethical and logical.

The president's Christianity is showing:

Ex 23:9 - "Do not oppress an alien; you yourselves know how it feels to be aliens, because you were aliens in Egypt.
Le 19:10 - Do not go over your vineyard a second time or pick up the grapes that have fallen. Leave them for the poor and the alien. I am the Lord your God.
Le 19:33 - "'When an alien lives with you in your land, do not mistreat him.
Le 19:34 - The alien living with you must be treated as one of your native-born. Love him as yourself, for you were aliens in Egypt. I am the Lord your God.
De 24:19 - When you are harvesting in your field and you overlook a sheaf, do not go back to get it. Leave it for the alien, the fatherless and the widow, so that the Lord your God may bless you in all the work of your hands.
De 24:20 - When you beat the olives from your trees, do not go over the branches a second time. Leave what remains for the alien, the fatherless and the widow.
De 24:21 - When you harvest the grapes in your vineyard, do not go over the vines again. Leave what remains for the alien, the fatherless and the widow.
Mt 25:35 - For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in,
Heb 11:13 - All these people were still living by faith when they died. They did not receive the things promised; they only saw them and welcomed them from a distance. And they admitted that they were aliens and strangers on earth.
Heb 13:2 - Do not forget to entertain strangers, for by so doing some people have entertained angels without knowing it.
