...Sen. John McCain warned last night that the American economy would collapse if 11 million illegal aliens are sent packing. .... "What are we going to do with 11 million people?" McCain asked ... "You going to send 'em all back? Mayor Bloomberg testified at a hearing last week that the economy of New York City would collapse [without illegal immigrants]. I would argue the economy of America would collapse."
Do these crackpots realize how stupid this argument is? They're saying we need people working for what is in effect - SLAVE WAGES.
Then to argue that we need to legalize these 'slaves' - who then WON'T work for the previously paid SLAVE wage makes the argument 'stupider'. As that would mean we need to 'import' more SLAVES to work for the less than minimum wage - which the now 'legal slave' won't do. Just like those "Lazy Americans" we hear so much about.
Their whole stance on illegals is an argument based on circular idiocy.
They'd be better of just proposing the repeal the 13th Amendment and saying we need slaves to survive and be done with it.
