No matter how they repackage it, it’s still s—t!
Why the Tea Party shouldn’t take advice from anyone with a hyphenated name.
The tea party does favor legal immigration. :)
The Tea Party and every right-thinking American needs to get focused on the BIG problem: the "silent" coup d'etat of our free constitutional republic by the unconstitutional $4 trillion federal government and the usurpation of the Constitution by the dangerous and traitorous power gathering dictatorship of Barak Obama.
Why is no one talking about this? Is it because no one ELSE is talking about it? Or is because the Left still subtly controls the "talking points" because they run most of the news broadcasts and newspapers?
Who on the Right is going to QUIT PLAYING POLITICAL RING AROUND THE ROSY and start talking about the ONE THING the Left doesn't want to hear talked about: the salvation of America by cutting government by 80% (=$800 billion, still too big but it's a start) and taking down the would be dictator in the White House.
We favor legal immigration. We are against illegal immigration and rewarding those who break our laws.
LEGAL immigration is fine.
ILLEGALS swarming across the border are not!
Oh, and SCREEN FOR DISEASES YOU MORONS!
Neither statistic is particularly surprising considering that they work cheaper and more often than not consume government subsidies to fill the wage gap which their employers doesn't pay.
If we imported third worlders from Bangladesh rather than Latin America, big business could pay them even less.
We always get one without the other.
Their case seems to be that destroying the rule of law creates economic growth. What is the empirical proof that that is the case?
We have had over 29 Million new legal immigrants since 1980. That is plenty. No other country in the world does/will do that. Throw in illegal aliens, and women into the workforce, and you see why wages are down and income for many.
If the author is determined to continue to blur the distinction between legal, controlled immigration and a wave of humanity surging over the southern border, then we really don't have enough common ground to continue the discussion.
I’m all for legal immigration. And, truth be told, if we eliminate all the government direct handouts to citizens in general, I’d be all for increasing the number of legal immigrants.
Frankly, the whole immigration, economy, entitlements rats ness of problems is like a tangled christmas tree light rats nest with ten billion lights.
That is, nobody is going to solve it. No human. It’s just gonna get uglier and uglier until it comes to total collapse and war. It’s not a matter of if. It’s amatter of when. And it is looking like we are very close.
Cheap labor for Big Business Republicans= Dependent voters for tBig Government Democrats
We can have open borders or we can have a social welfare state but not both; the cost would be prohibitive.
I’m the child of immigrants who worked, learned the language and were proud to be American citizens.
The current tsunami over our border is of people who want the benefits of America and none of the responsibilties.
This isn’t immigration, it is an invasion.
Opinion: Immigrants are productive and make us a richer nation
I only got that far.
