As surely as I'm sitting here typing this, elements in Washington D.C. are once again clamoring for an Amnesty moratorium. Even 'Mr. Walking Foot in Mouth Disease' Harry Reid has managed to stammer out another call for Amnesty between his recurring gaffes. And Reid doesn't seem to believe there will be any fight whatsoever this time. Interesting. He said the same thing last Amnesty, when he was seen scooting away, tail tucked firmly between his legs. Unfortunately, he could actually be a little closer to correct this time around, as McCain has already had a publicized 'meeting' with Obama.
So say hello to a newly legalized, nationalized, Americanized, low wage work force. More than happy to continue driving the unemployment rates in America, upwards. Especially among the Hispanic-American workforce. Yeah, Hispanics in America (Legal American Hispanics, that is) already have a fairly high unemployment rate as it is. Upwards of 9%, as compared to other ethnicity's. As it stands, there's about 7 million jobs in America that are 'temporarily' tied up with illegal alien occupancies. I say temporarily, as in any amount of those could be deported at any time. But to permanently tie those jobs up, it wouldn't be good for the economy is all I'll say for now.
As found on NumbersUSA, and the related NumbersUSA blog; "Pro-amnesty grassroots leaders held a press conference this morning to ask Congress and the new Administration for an immediate moratorium on workplace enforcement action and a renewed effort on "comprehensive immigration reform" (see Roy Beck's related blog). They are claiming the election showed Americans want an amnesty for illegal aliens and the businesses that hire them instead of citizens and legal residents. 500 of these leaders are now visiting Congressional offices to make personal appeals. Please call your Representative and two Senators (202-224-3121) to tell them the country needs interior enforcement, but does not want to amnesty illegal aliens, particularly when ten million Americans can't find a job."
E-Verify. It Works. Period. It's working in Arizona pretty well. And tens of thousands of illegals (upwards of over a million) have left the country over the last year. Which poses a problem for us here in California, which does NOT use E-verify. A lot of illegals came to my state. And with about 10 million illegals already residing here, .... let's just say, high school kids aren't getting the summer jobs at Taco Bell for a while. If ever. Thanks Mr. Antonio (ex-gang member turned ACLU lawyer, repeatedly sued the city of Los Angeles on behalf of gang members and later become its Mayor and turned the city into a Sanctuary city for illegals and made it illegal for Police to ask for residence verification) Villaraigosa.
But as Roy correctly points out, "The question you rightfully ask is this: If amnesty would hurt Hispanic Americans so much, why are these Hispanic leaders pushing it? The answer is pretty ugly: These Hispanic leaders are more enthusiastic in creating more Democratic voters out of the amnestied illegals and in creating more members for their Hispanic organizations than they are in helping struggling Hispanic-American families." Yeah, the answer is pretty ugly. But it's also about as truthful and straightforward as it gets. Just like the Dem's, they really don't give a crap about the populace, the 'common man' so to speak. If they did, they wouldn't turn into the ghosts they do, to come back to haunt their constituency with bad legislation and taxes.
The remedy is a simple one. Attrition Through Enforcement. Implement E-verify nation wide. Enforce the laws regarding illegal immigration. Build the wall. Yes, illegals will still be able to filter in through various means. But at least the tide will be stemmed to a trickle. America will have the opportunity to get back on it's financial feet. And the charity that Americans are known for (which is more than any other nation in the world, regardless of what the New York Times says) will be able to continue.
