Greenspan is senile.

Well this is of a piece with the nod-and-wink of Greenspan’s era.

He called for a temporary-worker program that could make use of that work force in a legal fashion.

I'm really tired of the lie of omission. These clowns keep repeating the "We need a guest worker program" mantra, yet none of them has the courage to acknowledge that we have more of those than ever before. I really have to wonder if they actually have a limit in mind or are they just thinking they can fool us forever.

Greenspan is beginning to remind me more and more of Jimmy Carter: An incompetent fool who lacks the common decency to just STFU and go away.

Nope. Greenspan gets it right. We do need DOCUMENTED workers. We need a system that issues work permits to foreign nationals that expire at a certain time and are regulated. What we have now is an uncontrolled border with zero documentation. As for allowing skilled immigrants or workers to come here and work, I believe that’s pretty much the way most of us (via our ancestors) got here in the first place.

Well, gee whiz, Greenspan's logic here could be used to rationalize or even "justify" the Nazi's use of slave labor.

Not senile, rather truly pathetic.

[usurper]

Greenspan is senile.

Jump on the team and come on in for the big win. Be the first on your block to sport a shinny new guest worker, they’re not just for the elite anymore.

He has been senile for years
He is on record praising derivatives and credit default swaps
