I hate big business and I despise politicians. Seems like the hot button for today is the whole "immigration" issue. Yeah, yeah, we all know that thousands pour into the US everyday, we all know that there are about 25 million of them here and don't believe for a second that there are only 11 million. They are mostly uneducated, ignorant and don't speak the language and will eventually cause a huge economic strain on a country that just isn't capable of sustaining their ever increasing numbers and I don't consider them immigrants at all. My definition of an immigrant is someone who goes through process to legally become one. It's not easy and it takes a long time, but it's the United States of America dammit! Despite its faults, it's still the best damn country in the world dammit! I doubt everyone would be so eager to come here if it were as bad as certain pot smoking dumbass slacker hippies would want you to believe, but I digress.
It would be so easy to place the blame solely on the illegals, but I don't. The fuckers responsible are big business and their butt monkey politician puppets.
The problem hasn't been solved because they don't want to solve it. If you actually belived Bush's bullshit 'speech' then you truly are a gullible idiot. Everyone knows that big business owns the government and Bush is just their patsy. Do you really think they are going to risk losing millions of slave labor workers? Of course not.
Politicians drag their feet on the issue because they don't want to lose millions of potential new voters.
Neither of them see or just don't care about the long term ramifications of their actions, but of course we'll end up paying the price for their greed.
Sometimes I envy the illegals... I mean, they can come into this country without going through the proper channels, commit a FEDERAL crime by forging documents and social security numbers and get rewarded with a job and not pay any taxes.
If a legal citizen did any of that shit, then they would be put in prison. The worst thing that could happen to an illegal is get deported, but of course they'll be back next week.
It's like they're above the law or something.
Anyway, after all is said and done very little will change and the screwing of the American people will continue. However, I'm not going to be like one of these pot smoking, brain dead hippies who just bend over and take it up the ass. I plan on doing something, it may or may not make a difference, but at least I can tell my grandkids that I did something... of course by then they probably won't speak any english.

It pisses me off royally also that people who ILLEGALLY enter our country want citizenship when so many others have respected our country by going through the legal channels necessary to gain citizenship. I had a good friend from the Ukraine studying with me at Pitt who had spent 12 years living in the US with his family working towards citizenship, and when he finally made it, it was a huge accomplishment for everyone who knew him and for his entire family.
ReplyDeleteTo allow illegals to have citizenship is insulting to my friend and all of his efforts along with the millions of other immigrants who are going through the legal channels as they should. It would be like an American hopping the border into China saying, "Hey! I hopped over your border illegally and don't speak a drop of Chinese, but I do eat Chinese food! YUMMY! Make me a citizen!"
I agree too that there's a lot more than just 11 million out there. Maybe that's all they've caught sofar, but there's gotta be at least twice that many. Furthermore, you bring up a great point of going after big business, but the problem is, like you say, big business owns our government.
It's a tough situation to combat indeed.
Fantastic post!
Uh oh better be careful or you might be labeled a racist which always happens to me whenever I say something similar. It just proves that the amnesty supporters don't have a leg to stand on so they resort to yelling and screaming and calling anyone against them a racist and nobody wants to be that.
ReplyDeleteAmerica IS the best damn country in the world! USA!! :)
This is what a friend of mine had to say: http://haloscan.com/tb/appalachistan/114356566504497462
ReplyDeleteI think that those who want to move here need to at least bother to learn the language, and stop expecting - DEMANDING - that we accomodate them.
