I am truly sorry to find that Schafly is a protectionist.
I agree with her about illegal immigration and the pathetic amnesty proposals - Amnesty is just another way for America to continue to ignore its own laws. But subsidising American workers just to keep them in a job they're used to is an appallingly bad idea. Far better to get your widgets made at 50c/hour and watch new jobs sprout all over your economy.
If you loses enough jobs from this country-you won't be able to afford widgets or possibly food or shelter. All other countries protect their jobs; thus, there is no such thing as the free market in terms of jobs. Also, in a true free market wages would rise and fall due to market fluctuations. What we have here is bascially going back to slave labor. Slavery never benefitted anyone in the end. America is a great country because of the middle class. We could afford to buy products we made. If you lose that, America will become a third world country in short order-the very rich and the peon workers and nothing in between. Basically, America is allowing its manufacturing base to be destroyed-dangerous in my opinion. Also, can you imagine what millions of foreign workers - who have no love our understanding of our traditions- will do to our political system once they become voters. They will vote in their self interest which will destroy this country.
