All Employment Growth Since 1492 Went to Immigrants

[ELVIS]

Fixed the thread title for you.

Yay for control freaks...

Do you have any idea how tough it was for the legal Immigrants to come here ??

What's happening now isn't fair to anyone...

What would your attitude to immigration be, Elvis, is you were in charge of policy making?

I'm geuinely intrigued. People who don't like state regulation in day to day life and with a free market economy often want greater regulation on immigration, which is in tension with both. I also have no idea what the feeling is about immigration in the US more broadly, and I'm intrigued given that it is a nation that was built on immigration in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries....

I was being my normal flippant self
I would be surprised if E has a cohesive and coherent plan for it . Only Because it is such a complex problem .
And it does have a strange slant considering it is a country built on immigration.

The problem is Mexico is draining as fast as they can sneak over the border. Illegals. Undocumented. Whatever. I know most people here say "Bring em in as fast as they can get here!! Bring em all!!" Well fuck that. Let em all get in line and come in legally. Let's streamline the immigration process and make it easier for people to legally come here. Fine by me. But I say we seal that motherfucking southern border tighter than a virgin's pussy on prom night. And now the screaming starts..."Oh no, we can't do that. It's not right!" Ok, fine. Let's just drop all the border enforcement and let the illegals roll over this country in their lowriders, listening to raps and shooting all the jobs.

It just amazes me that so many Americans think it's un-American to believe we should have a sovereign nation with secure borders. I don't get it. Why in the fuck should we give this country away?

Cos that's how you got it

And you think we would have learned a lesson from that!

Nobody gave it to us. We fought for it.

I think he's talking about the Injuns. And they didn't give it to us. We traded em some very nice beads for it.

Only one bite and he ain't got teeth

Sorry Cdog I was poking the bear

[cadaverdog]

If they give all the illegals here now amnesty we might as well get rid of the border between here and Mexico.

For Manhattan maybe but the injuns out west weren't into beads.

Think you swapped beads for gonorrhoea
