After meeting with a "bevy" of big-business groups, President Barack Obama is reportedly considering granting them up to 800,000 additional guest-worker visas via executive actions.

A few years ago I, and many others, got laid off from a major tech corp., in my area, as I was let go they were in process of renewing several H1-B visas for others in the group who were no more capable than I was, but they were younger.
There should be more effort put into retraining people forced into a career change rather than simply opening the gates even further.
Were you around for the Carter years?
Everything you say is true, and all the more reason why ‘guest workers’ won’t solve anything.
And all the more reason to allow the free market to work. Only way to punish companies run by stupid people instead of rewarding them at the hand of government.
Is this why Obama came back to work for a day?
You voted for it America.
Now take it and smile. :)
...because he doesn’t give a damn about Americans.
As a fellow FREEPer says, “Pray America wakes up”.
We need to repent of our own sins, and turn back to God.
This wickedness enveloping us may be His judgement; and those of us who are believers must stand with the Truth. Pray for strength to do that.
The GOPe is on board because their Chamber of Commerce money donors want it. But they don't want to have to vote for it...because they're scared shitless of their base.
If Obama does it, they get what they want -- but don't have to pay a political price.
This will serve to drive down wages even further, of course.
What salary are they offering, and how does it compare to what the government offers for free (for not working, providing you breed at least one bastard)?
The new underclass is already here (with or without papers); I suspect while showing dirty Guatemalan children in the campaign to push for this we’ll instead get even more Asians to take middle-class jobs.
Cut off all the free stuff and they work…..
Gov. workers right?
no doubt at all about that. Unfortunately crony capitalism rules the day and the LIVs/sheeple just don’t care to spend any effort to understand what is going on around them.
“This will serve to drive down wages even further, of course.”
The intended consequences!
Our FIrst Evil-Twit-American President knows who butters his bread!!
Amen. As it was in the days of old...so it is NOW!
it very well could be ..
Im not certain that one need be physically present in the Whitehouse to Use...the Almighty Pen...to sign executive orders or not...
where is Al Sharpton on THIS ONE....
America for AMERICANS....has always seemed the most rational road for us to travel.!!
this ,,,that beig the FREE REPUBLIC may be a good place to launch such a campaign.
