Yes, something's terribly wrong. And when 98% of american politicians who want to be re-elected are re-elected, then there's something terribly wrong. If we re-elected only 30%, then the people would be in charge more so. In my opinion we should vote the politicians out when they displease us regardless of who the challenger is. You have a republican senator or congressman who refuses to do stop illegal immigration, you vote them out regardless of whether you end up voting for a dem. Otherwise the citizens of this country will not rule this country. It's the New World Order, they're fixing the candidates, the races and the media stories behind the scenes in order to bypass the democracy completely.
I've been trying to tell all of you on here for YEARS that this situation is huge and getting bigger. Nothing but flames. I say learn to live with it now and don't call me.
Do us a favor and continue to ignore this thread.
You are right on target. But, no one is listening.
There is some interesting stuff there.
"To say today, as some do, that the United States needs trade with the rest of the world per se to sustain its level of economic well being simply does not comport with the facts. The fact of the matter is the United States enjoyed its highest standard of living - during the 1950s and early 1960s - at a time when it carried on very little foreign trade vis a vis its overall Gross National Product. Why? - because it possessed in itself all the attributes of great wealth:
An abundance of natural resources.
Powerful and dynamic business combinations.
A well educated and motivated work force.
A well developed physical infrastructure.
A powerful internal market."
It's a long read, but, alot of it makes sense.
I agree, with the intent (at some unspecifiable point down the road) of having so much power vested in "supranational" organizations and NGOs, that the PTB can ignore national governments, constitutions, national laws, and best of all, those pesky voters. For now, laws, constitutions, and the citizenries must be given lip service, but the day is coming when even that will be withheld.
It's much more likely than ending welfare. If we ended welfare, we could stop the migration. But that's not going to happen.
My only fear of closing the borders is, I won't be able to escape if I need to..... seriously, that was my main objection.
Disagree, most come for social programs.
And I disagree with that. Social programs play a factor, but not the driving ones.

You're absolutely right. Unfortunately, those of us who believe in enforcing our immigration laws do not include the leaders of the Republican Party. This cave-in to the liberal agenda (let's call it 'compassionate' conservatism) is fostering this vindictive attitude towards blacks. Hopefully blacks will realize that this "multicultural" agenda was never on their behalf to begin with and will destroy them as assuredly as it will the rest of the nation.
Naturally blacks have a lot to lose from the invasion of the U.S., just as all Americans do.
Maybe that depends on where someone lives which they see more of. Here it's the social programs and other free things they're coming for but unemployment here is very high. I think California obviously attracts those looking for social programs. I guess you could count those you see collecting SSI, food stamps, WIC, free school lunch, Medicaid etc and compare with the numbers actually out working ---of course there's an overlap too because some might work AND collect whatever benefits they can. They'd almost have to in order to agree to work for very low wages that give them no benefits like employer provided insurance.
My, how the pendulum of the "Civil Rights" laws have swung the other way.
What goes around, comes around, I guess.
