Excellent article.

"Doing the jobs American's won't do" is a pile of steaming BS. Until every single American has a job, we shouldn't even consider a guest worker program.

I know quite a few able-bodied native-born Black men and women, some of whom are unfortunately convicted felons, who are barely subsisting on minimum wage, or day labor, which pays them a measly $40.00 per day after taxes and agency fees.

This is an outrage.

Many "upright" people following the doctrine of predestination, believe that if you are convicted of felony it is a sign that you are irredeemably evil. And that you should not be employed by anybody, that you should be forced to break the law again (to demonstrate your wickedness) and spend the rest of life in jail.

Such "justice" hungry men believe that there should be only two types of punishments - life in prison without parole and death sentence.

They also tend to believe that once you are charged with crime you are guilty of something, so your deserve conviction even if you did not commit the offense with which you are charged.
