What's the Point?

NO MORE in '04 - OUTLAW BUSH, not JOBS!

Our Dictatorial Liar is at it again. Our-Burning-Bush now wants to legalize being an illegal alien, in order to do the following:

"That bill would create two new visa categories, one for foreign workers currently living outside the country and another for those already in the United States illegally, an estimated 8 million to 12 million people plus 250, 000 to 500,000 more arriving each year. These immigrants, nearly half of whom are believed to come from Mexico, would be offered a way to work toward permanent legal status." SF Chronicle, January 7, 04 - Page A1.

This measure is about class warfare and the ability of this nation to provide jobs to the lowest income (citizen) members of this society. This being an election year the idiot whose seat is in doubt, in the 04 elections is proposing to grovel at the feet of the Latino population in order to garner support at the polls, for his failed policies and his lack of vision both nationally and internationally.

American citizens have a right to expect the opportunity to get a job that can at least pay the rent. But the entire political establishment seems to think that this is unimportant - in fact the only thing that these people understand is "the lowest possible prices everywhere, by whatever means necessary."

What the government should do is enforce US immigration laws or eliminate them completely. Since the government is now proposing to change all the rules in the middle of the game, having to do with being a citizen and all the expectations that naturally go with that - perhaps this government should pay all those unemployed Americans (who will lose or have lost jobs to the illegals) a token $100,000.00 each for the loss of their benefits, as legal citizens of the United States. Being a citizen means taxes, jury duty, military service, and adherence to all the laws and statutes of the United States. And it should also have some benefits to go with all the other garbage that Bush and Company have added to our lives.

If this excrement that is being called "proposed legislation" passes - then we should justifiably disband the Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS). Eliminate all the border check-points and just let as many people from anywhere come to the US as might want to - that will really drive down "the costs" of labor - in favor of "really cheap prices." Of course the problem is that while costs may actually go down, the prices for all those products from food and fuel to construction will actually rise - in direct proportion to the number of American workers displaced within all the various industries that will be affected. That profit difference will of course go to the management of each company, who will not pay any taxes on that either, as part of their Corporate Welfare incentive programs.

Since Bush has never worked for his living - he was born to his sheltered existence - he has no idea of what it means to not be able to "EARN" a living: never mind a living wage.

Where all of this is going, is toward the dissolution of all national differences, between peoples - his goal being to make nationalities irrelevant. That, in his testosterone soaked view, would seem to be an ideal world, (no benefits, no regulations, and no choice when it comes to where you work, for who, or at what price). That has been precisely the whole point in NAFTA and now in the FIAA talks, that are seeking to tie the hands of 34 nations in an agreement that will be hemisphere wide - to ensure that only the top two percent of people make all the money - and no one else has any rights or an income that can actually support life.

The only flaw in all these new-age transnational trade agreements; is that very few ordinary Americans will have the money to buy anything much - so who will be the consumer base that will support all this revisionist-economic-double-talk?

It's understandable that people as useless as our non-representatives in Washington might see this as "a good thing." And no-doubt (ODS) the US Office of Disinformation Services (national media in unquestioning and complete servitude to the party line from the White House) - will no doubt promote this idea with glee. But then none of these sellouts seem to understand what it means to be a legal member of any nation. It means that the citizens have rights, and that citizens are entitled to have some expectations that their own government will not stab them in the back - just to get re-elected by people who have no essential stake in the nation, except to use it as a cash cow, to be milked for their own survival - and not ours.

However, since our resident dictator is still AWOL from the Air National Guard, back during the Vietnam War - how could we expect this criminally culpable deserter to understand anything about legality, or decent jobs, or paying your own way in this society? To him it's all about campaign contributions ($300 million and still counting), and re-election of the status quo (Hah!) - nothing else is worth knowing to this imposter who claims to be the president of the United States.

And this proposal of his - just proves the above proposition. I'll be one of the below-the-poverty-line people who will be waiting for my check for $100,000 for the loss of my eligibility to work in my own country - thanks to the "vision" of George W. Bush!
