Why do we ever need reform, i.e., legislation ?

Just check the landscaper, restaurant, etc., businesses for illegals. You know, like we used to see happening on a normal ongoing basis.

The only legislation we should have is to DECREASE the numbers permitted to immigrate.

We have 300+ million people and not enough jobs for them.

Allowing ANY immgration is simply idiotic at this point, unless one is thinking from the globalist/transnational financial oligarchy viewpoint.

That's what I told my congressman's office. If We could pass a bill that really enforced the border better without giving the Dems something more important, that would be OK, but it will never happen.

One of the most interesting things for me about this whole topic is how they talk about; jobs Americans won’t do, teenage unemployment, etc.

Well, i’ll go out on a limb and say that more than a few of the folks that read this site have had jobs in the service industry, washing dishes, mowing lawns, doing construction. Lots of them when you were on summer break from school. And then, if you were lucky, you were able to get a job bussing/waiting tables while school was in session. I loved being able to make my own money when I was a kid. Didn’t have to hit up my folks for any. Nor could they say a whole lot about what I spent it on.

And it taught me a work ethic. Something missing from a lot of todays younger generations that don’t know what its like because everything has always been handed to them.

If someone like Gowdy folds on this, especially with all the hype that surrounded him during some of the recent congressional hearings, than that’ll prove just how corrupt DC is. And the need for any/every incumbent to be voted out of office.

Or we could start growing our economy. We need immigrants. We don’t need welfare slugs.

Just finished my third Silva book while on vacation and am pleased that know what you mean by this.

About my rep and the rap he is taking on FR:

(1) Neither Trey Gowdy nor the House of Reps is not the sole enforcer of existing immigration laws; we still sorta have three big ol' branches of government that are responsible for enforcing laws already on the books.

(2) On this and other FR threads, Gowdy is already being voted out of office for posters' suppostions that he has neither said nor even insinuated he would or would not support if and when immigration matters come up for vote in the House. (Judged guilty without facing his accusers or having a fair trial.) Posters are putting all kinds of words in his mouth instead of responding to what he is saying and actually has said. What's up with this, FReepers?
