That’s why I say “we the people” should have a tax revolt. They can’t throw us all in jail, and they can’t kick us out of the country.

Enough is enough.

You don't think the IRS will simply garnish our legitimately earned paychecks and property?

"Where I'm from, breaking and entering gets you SHOT."

Good train of thought.

Would it be possible to post them (the pamphlets)? I’d like to see them and find out who’s behind it.

They will without thinking twice.

This is the same silly cow who wrote the awful socialist tract titled “Nickle and Dimed”. I expected nothing less from this intellctual lightweight.

Her book “Nickle and Dimed” is a great example. A lightweight bit of fluff that is intellectually dishonest from the first page to the last.

It tends to cut WAY down on the B&E.

If someone breaks into my property for the purpose of trashing and looting, I would be hell-bent on restitution. But if they break in for the purpose of cleaning it--scrubbing the bathroom, mowing the lawn--then, in my way of thinking anyway, the debt goes in the other direction.

Well, Barbara, what if they do both?

Hello? Barbara???

What opinion could we expect from someone like Ehrenreich? She’s a committed Marxist.

The only way dumbasses like Barbara will care about illegal immigration is when they start writing pieces for The Nation for 4 bucks an hour.

“All right, they committed a “crime”—the international equivalent of breaking and entry. “

And B and E is a real offense. You don’t give cash handouts to folks who break and enter just because they don’t continue on to do murder. What an absurd column by a oneworlder. Lets hope nobody fowards this to the President.

“”All right, they committed a “crime”—the international equivalent of breaking and entry. But breaking and entry is usually a prelude to a much worse crime, like robbery or rape. What have the immigrants been doing once they get into the US? Taking up time on the elliptical trainers in our health clubs? Getting ahead of us on the wait-lists for elite private nursery schools?”

No, they have been robbing and raping our education, health and welfare systems.

Is she that oblivious?

So, if I break into her house and move into her master bedroom, it’s OK so long as I mop the floors while I’m there?

Kennedy has a great compound. I think it would be really funny if a group of anti-illegal protestors broke onto his compound, and started doing clean-up work and sleeping in his rooms. I wish I had the freedom to do something like that, as it would be a great protest, it would get nationwide coverage, and would perfectly illustrate the absurdity of the immigration bill.

With the possible exception of Bangladesh, the purpose of this exercise is to explode the common myth that these countries are poor because they are overcrowded and America, having plenty of room, should just let them all in.

Couple this with the fact that most of them will not head for the comparable population density areas noted but straight for our cities where they can live in their little Balkanized enclaves. Although, at least in the case of the Los Angeles area, it is a huge Balkanized enclave covering most of several counties.

Yep! Say it again. She is filled with her "soft" bigotry. Typical leftist writer...

You're right - it's a soft bigotry - the worst kind.
