Heh.  Indeed.

I say we tear down all of the fences and all of the border crossings and just open the shit up.  Problem solved.

The damn country is circling the toilet anyway.  Stick the plunger in there and force it down the drain.

Jane - yes.  TWC has become truly useless.  They force you to use their website if you want weather info (which I don't; I use AccuWeather).  And I think Dish Network noticed this problem.

Briefly - very briefly - Dish added in a new, alternate weather channel station that ran constant national rotation of weather info.  What TWC used to be back in 1990.

About a week later, it was gone, replaced with smooth jazz and a display announcing that Dish was working with TWC to provide a separate channel dedicated entirely to regional weather info.

Haven't seen anything since, though.  This was maybe a month ago...

"If you want to solve the unemployment problem in America, you have to open the doors to immigrants who will come here, create businesses, because when the tide comes in, everybody's boat rises"

Adding more people isn't a good solution to aleviating a large pool of unemployed people.  It's true that immigrants create businesses.  But why would anyone expect immigrants who have come here illegally to be able to create a new business and employ others?

Why wouldn't they have immigrated legally then?

Additionally, I've found that many ethnic minorities, particularly the ones who don't want to learn English and live their lives using English, usually create jobs that cater exclusively to their ethnic group which builds a larger beach head for that non-assimilating culture to expand into a growing cultural problem.

Isn't that in The Kama Sutra?

"...a path to legal status for all undocumented immigrants..."?

Geez - didn't these guys at the LA TImes get the memo about how the whole point of using the term "undocumented immigrant" was to gloss over the part about these folks being law-breakers? Next thing you know, they'll admit to the term "immgrant" being inaccurate and presumptuous.  Maybe once the Mexican takeover of LA is complete, their uber-"educated" self-proclaimed elits will start using the correct term, "illegal alien" - and brag about it.

No one ever had a problem with immigrants. That was never the issue.

Then what is the issue? Here's my guess: There are a lot of people in the country illegally, and practically all of them are going to stay here, legally or not.

The prevalent solution is the status quo; do nothing. Unfortunately, that doesn't really work. The next biggest solution involves securing the borders and deporting illegal aliens. It sounds great, but that doesn't really work either.

I don't know what exactly Bloomberg plans -- but it has to be better than option 1 or option 2.

>> Amazing how if you use enough weasel words you can defend any piece of nonsense.

Fine. I'll copy and paste and edit, for you:

Securing the borders and deporting illegal aliens doesn't work at all. As a practical policy, it is an absolute failure.

Better?

If this is truly the case, then why would anyone believe for an instant that illegal aliens would suddenly choose to start paying taxes and become citizens?

Because immigration laws aren't taken seriously by the government.

Tax laws are.

You know what would go a long way to healing our economy? Paying down the national debt. You know a good way to pay down the national debt? A wealth tax. Let's say, 100% of all assets over $2 million should help pay the debt and shore up Social Security and Medicare. Those assholes can lobby for cheaper pool boys and gardeners when unemployment is at 10%. We can lobby to have their wealth confiscated.

We really are in a situation where most of the extremely wealthy are conspiring with a good chunk of the poor to destroy the middle class.

Deportation works!

Some 750 agents targeted agricultural areas with a goal of 1000 apprehensions per day. By the end of July, over 50,000 immigrants were caught in the two states. An estimated 488,000 illegal immigrants are claimed to have left voluntarily, for fear of being apprehended.

Can we kill that lie that deportation "does not work", because it most certainly does, when it's allowed to work.

http://bit.ly/Ix9Z5

Bill Chambers, who worked for a combined 33 years for the Border Patrol and the then-called US Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS), says politically powerful people are still fueling the flow of illegals.

During the 1950s, however, this "Good Old Boy" system changed under Eisenhower – if only for about 10 years.

In 1954, Ike appointed retired Gen. Joseph "Jumpin' Joe" Swing, a former West Point classmate and veteran of the 101st Airborne, as the new INS commissioner.

Influential politicians, including Sen. Lyndon B. Johnson (D) of Texas and Sen. Pat McCarran (D) of Nevada, favored open borders, and were dead set against strong border enforcement, Brownell said. But General Swing's close connections to the president shielded him – and the Border Patrol – from meddling by powerful political and corporate interests.

Posted by: FireHorse

This is idiotic. In order for them to be subject to tax laws, they would have to appear on the radar of the IRS. Most do not now. And there's no proof that we'll suddenly obtain the political will to forcibly register those that do not comply. That's why immigration law is intertwined here. We won't send forth Federal agencies to find those working under the table or in the shadow economy if we talking about immigration, but the same government will somehow do exactly that where payroll taxes are concerned.

And we just take your word for it FireHorse? No thanks.

That's up to you. Here's another idea: The government can pass more meaningless laws that it doesn't intend to enforce.

By the way, the U.S government isn't simply neglecting its duty in enforcing current immigration laws. It's going out of it's way to make sure that these laws aren't enforced by anyone at any level.

Yes?

And that's a lie. A flat out lie.

There's a big white box on your screen. Start typing, and put me to some truth.

From NRO's Corner blog:

Billionaires for Open Borders [Mark Krikorian]

New York mayor Michael Bloomberg has recruited Rupert Murdoch and other CEOs of multinational corporations to lobby for amnesty and increased immigration. Here's the video of Bloomberg and Murdoch being interviewed by one of Murdoch's Fox employees — hard-hitting accountability journalism!

You can imagine the pitch Bloomberg made to these guys — we need illegals to take care of our golf courses! And I'm not just making that up; he's actually made just that argument:

"You and I are beneficiaries of these jobs," Bloomberg told his co-host, John Gambling. "You and I both play golf. Who takes care of the greens and the fairways in your golf course?"

He should call his new coalition "Golfers for Illegal Immigration."

 FireHorse, I refuted your argument in my post 292

Mass deportation has been tried in 1954-1955, and IT WORKS.

It also worked for the "Great Mexican Repatriation" between 1929 - 1939.

http://bit.ly/cecYCM

Two historical instances in this country, both in the 20th century, that proves mass deportation of Mexicans works.

Because immigration laws aren't taken seriously by the government.

Tax laws are.

Oh dear, you are gullible.

Do you think the landscapers and construction workers pay taxes on their cash business? I got a neighbor in stucco with a 100k car in his garage and word is he's on food stamps.

We really are in a situation where most of the extremely wealthy are conspiring with a good chunk of the poor to destroy the middle class.

That's what it's all about.

The middle class in this country is large and wealthy enough that it competes with the rich for scarce resources.

They don't much like that. Nor do they like us investing.

They'd much prefer a serf class and an upper class. Easier to control and less competition for resources.

The game today seems to be to steal from the middle class and hand it to the poor who, being the ultimate consumers, quickly spend it right back into the hands of the upper class.

Let the middle class keep their money and they start getting funny ideas about investing and growing it. Or even starting their own companies. Can't have that.

And that's a lie. A flat out lie.

True, KG. But neither is it a failure resulting from negligence or incompetence or a shortage of resources. It's much worse than that.

Didn't see your comment at #326, Jim in San Diego. I take back my (serious) question at 332.

Pax.

I saw them on Fox this morning and it made my blood boil. Both of them were casting this as a debate between those who are for immigration versus those who are against immigration. Their talking points were aimed at helping to convince those who are anti immigration that these people (the illegals) are really nothing to worry about, that they are hard working and pay taxes.

I will join in any boycott against any and all corporations and cities who join in this effort. Fox network included. These people are all liars. The first and foremost issue is border security and not immigration. We don't have an immigration problem. We have a problem that our southern border is being over run.

Both divisions called Fort Campbell home at different times after WWII, though, and no one really remembers the 11th since they deactivated for the last time in 1958 (not counting the experimental airmobile unit at Benning in 1964-65), so confusion happens.

As for me, Boeing has gotten hate mail from me today.

I saw it too, and couldn't believe Nanny Bloomberg was actually claiming illegals don't use hospitals or welfare because ( I'm paraphrasing) no one would come here just to live on welfare.  What is it with these people that they think we will believe their bullshit lies and ignore what we see with our own eyes?

Hmmm . . . boycott News Corp.?  Aren't ads for some of their subsidiaries in the rotation here?  Does this mean Ace will be returning that revenue - or is he going to boycott the service that includes their ads?

Seems like a mighty big effort to protest a publicity stunt.  Or did you think the fact that several pro-amnesty corporations and politicians "form a group" to do what they are already doing individually was the tipping point that would suddenly change the momentum  . . . from, like, 70% against?

If it's all that darned urgent, wouldn't it just be easier to hunt the 30% in favor down like dogs?  Or better yet, WITH dogs?

Boycotts are just so metrosexual - but what you and AP do on your own time in the privacy of your own hot tub is none of my business.

Don't mind the bed-bugs...I'm in the apartment business and have had four cases of bed-bugs in the last year due to hispanics.  Never ever encountered this problem before in nearly twenty years...

When I lived in Bushwick several years ago, an apartment downstairs had at least three families living in a railroad. They lived in the apartment in shifts. In two rooms, since they couldn't get access to the kitchen at all times, they'd set up propane grills. But the kitchen was always open on the weekends when everyone would get together and cook. The grease on the walls was so thick and yellow, and there were roaches crawling everywhere.
