None will come, of course, illegals aren't here for the work they're here for the benefits, according to a Hispanic businessman of long-standing.
This second generation Hispanic businessman told me right off that he used to be able to hire his fellow Hispanics from other Latin American countries, who were here on legal status, that wanted to work to have a better life for themselves and their families. He said that a few would get green cards, leaving family back at home, live with others in similar situations and work, save and return home to build businesses.
Not so today. He said that when he can hire someone here legally (and those are the ONLY ones he will hire) they bring families including sometimes parents and aunts and uncles, children and their live-in girlfriends and they are already getting government benefits when they begin working for him.
I told him that that is against the law and he agreed and isn't one bit happy about it either as his taxes are paying for this abomination. He said he asked many of them how on earth do they get benefits and was told all they had to do was to show up at a government welfare office and sign up. They even apply for driver's licenses and sign up at the DMV!
I said that also is against the law in KS and MO, so far as I know, but he said that some way it is happening.
So much for Rand Paul, man of the people and TEA Party candidate!!!
He’s from Kentucky. What is he sticking his nose in this for? His wacky father lives in Texas; that’s his connection?
He should go to Texas for an extended stay and mix in with the good folks there. Maybe he’ll get mocked as a gringo by the priest at Mass, as happened last sunday. maybe he’ll speak with someone who can’t get a particular job for being unable to speak Spanish, or shoved around on line in the store by someone from another country who won’t look him in the eye, or forced to wait in the parking lot drive while the “I am special” family unapologetically hangs around talking to the driver of the car in front of him and his family.
Maybe he’d decide against giving these people the green light to go viral with this behavior.
He’s way out of touch.
I never knew him nor Rubio enough to trust either one... my gut feeling was obviously correct. After all of the BS we went through the last 2 Pres. elections, and especially after the last one, you would think people on our side would have learned by now that not everything is as it seems.
