JEB BUSH: WE MUST ‘DRAMATICALLY EXPAND’ IMMIGRANTS COMING TO WORK
Breitbart ^ | February 4, 2015 | Pam Key

Posted on 02/05/2015 1:07:15 PM PST by C19fan

Wednesday at the Detroit Economic Club, former Gov. Jeb Bush (R-FL) said to “create high, sustained economic growth,” we need to “dramatically expand immigrants that are coming to work.”

Bush said, “It seems to me we ought to be strategic about this about how do we create high, sustained economic growth And that is to shift away from family reunification being almost the sole driver of illegal immigration to narrowing that do what every other country has, spouse and minor children. And dramatically expanding immigrants that are coming to work. A guest worker program to deal in the areas where there are shortages.”

“I just don’t get the strategerie. Why anger the entire conservative base with these unprompted statements. Guy has a tin ear.”

We’re being played again, somehow.

How can they just ignore the fact that so many citizens are out of work? Things have changed in the last ten years.

Gosh, how lucky we are to have someone this utterly clueless offering to be our next president. /s

He obviously doesn’t know we have 93 million able bodied citizens out of work. Either that, or he has just let it slip he doesn’t give a flying fig about them, if he does.

Why is it we can only find traitors to run for that office these days?

No wonder the government is buying so much ammunition.

I’m sure this stand will differentiate him from Hillary in many ways, and garner him the vote of all Mexicans.

Yeah, right!


It might, but who wants to work for what the other party is offering free? Like Rush Limbaugh says it's hard to compete with Santa Claus. People didn't vote for Obamma because he promised them a job; they voted for free house, car, phone, food.

Yes, and the players are not brilliant conspirators; rather confused, but selfish & myopic; imagining that Americans in general will benefit from decisions that only benefit the confused special interest involved.

The mindset is described in more detail in How You Define Problems May Define You.

We need to engage Jeb on the myopic folly of those he is trying to appeal to--and the stupidity of his own approach.

It’s a joke. George III (Le Dauphin d’Amérique) is committing a heinous political error, akin to Rope-A-Dope.

That’s the point. You can’t expect to win offering the same thing as the opposition. They can and will always offer more. Why vote for him when she’s the real thing?

The Bushes assume they will get the white vote just by showing up. So they can not only take it for granted, they can even abuse them - they’ve been double crossing their supporters for decades (”no new taxes”).

So they think they can go after the Rat vote with the same gravy, and us Evil Whiteys got nowhere to go.

Um...not true no mo.

I guess, I’m one of the few that thinks we can send them all back. The 12 million are not all clustered in one place, they are scattered about in manageable clumps, and immigration law enforcement can be increased where they are clumped to whatever level that it needs to be. All that is needed is to systematically find them and deport them. There can be a lot of things done also to encourage self deportation (no welfare benefits, no housing, no jobs, etc.) It may take a couple of years but if there is a will to send these invading parasites back to their homes, it certainly can be done.

People worried about their next meal don’t cause a fuss for the oligarchs. After the great expansion of the middle class after WWII, what did we have? The Civil Rights Movement, Women’s Lib, the anti-War Movement. Who needs that noise?

in some states 70% of illegal immigrants are on welfare, food stamps, SS etc- How in Hell can Bush think bringing more of that into our country will help?

Followed by an abortion rate of similar magnitude.

People don’t have children when they feel insecure about a job. So they take extreme measures.

Once the job market and job security are restored, the population deficit in this country will take care of itself.

Did for the previous 350 years prior Roe v. Wade.

You’re right. Ike did it in the 1950s with Operation Wetback. One of the easiest, least noticeable ways to do it would be to check immigration status of each suspicious person whenever that person interacts either with social services or interacts adversely with law enforcement. If that doesn’t pressure illegals to self deport, it will at least deter them from applying for health and welfare benefits and make them very careful to avoid any illegal activity, from speeding all the way up to murder.
