To our local quisling contingent, this will stick like water off a duck's back. They will learn nothing.
Bush said today that, "Illegal immigration blah blah blah. Blah blah blah and blah. And if blah blah blah, then blah blah blah blah blah. So, we're going to blah so that blah blah the blah!"
The involuntary demographic transformation created by mass immigration is the #1 threat to not only the quality of life for most Americans, but to the survival of the America we know. It's taken many, many years of grass-roots efforts to bring the issue to the fore, but it finally seems to be gaining some traction.
CIS estimates that nearly half of the post-2000 immigrant arrivals 3.7 million are illegal aliens.
But there's something in the numbers that might explain "doom and gloom" vis-a-vis the economy even though the economy is doing very well. But there are some who "worry."
A study (covering 2000 through the first three months of 2003) by Northeastern University using CPS/BLS data reported that "recent" immigrants are getting huge numbers of the jobs created -- so many in fact that the numbers suggest that citizens and established immigrants are losing jobs to them.
This is not germane to security but it most definitely should be of concern to anyone wishing to be elected and who is concerned about security.
Security worries pretty much excludes the "we just need to tell the world that we were wrong" Rats. The Rats worry about protecting terrorists' civil rights and to get power back they sure as hell will exploit the "doom and gloom" among the relatively few.
It's almost two years after the Northeastern U. study and the numbers appear to be shooting up faster than ever.
We don't have an immigration policy we have a land grab. But since we have a ponzi scheme economy that depends on high population growth to sell widgets and houses to, when we do curtail immigration growth and the births from that we will see a slowdown of long term GDP growth. Like Japan that is at its current population peak rarely sells more crap to inflate its GDP numbers and to our economic gurus who are trained like seals for a limited number of tricks think the Japanese are about to resort to cannabilism when in fact Japan is about to become a world leader in the peak-oil age.
Just ran across this story on Fox. A good read....BTTT
