Nick and the WH still don’t get it.
These people are trying to assuage us by saying they’ll go easy (or easier) on employers who unknowingly break the law?
No one would hire you or me without proof we’re legal? It’s not that hard to show, and if the gvmnt’s docs are easy to fake, fix that in a separate bill, you “comprehensive” buffoons.
And yeah, another big selling point is the part about: first offense pays $5000, second pays ... .... fourth pays $75,000.
Does the bill says what they pay at the 243rd frigging offense?
Nothing.
Nothing, except another fine. A fine that will be just another cost of doing business. Another cost of doing business that will be passed on to the consumer as higher business costs. Will any officer of a company ever see jail time? Hardly. Plenty of lawyers make good money by keeping dirty little white collar criminals out of the pokey.
One way or the other the average legal citizen will take another shot in the rump.
Bush is well on his way to killing the Republican party. I do hope when his daddy and Bubba Clinton sit down at their politically incestuous chit-chats they'll be satisfied to know that W and Comrade Carter will share the notoriety of being co-holders of most pathetic president in US history.
