We take in over a total of
1.2 million legal immigrants annually more that all other nations combined.
They birth another 900,000 babies annually in the USA. Then, we have 800,000
illegals still pouring over our borders annually.
Subject: Name one
advantage of adding another 100 million immigrants
Dear fellow
Americans:
In the past two
months, I completed my 8th bicycle ride across America. I discovered that most
Americans cannot be bothered and are not involved or concerned with mass
immigration. They just don’t know it’s flooding the country with an armada of
humanity. They don’t understand that it’s overwhelming our water, energy,
resources and environment. They think our Congress is taking care of it. They
think the president is taking care of it. They would be horrifically wrong.
Those folks are accelerating it. Last night on NBC’s Brian Williams, he talked
about Asians flooding into the USA at ever increasing numbers. Fareed Zakaria,
an Indian immigrant, wrote a big piece in this week’s Time Magazine chastising
us for not welcoming even more immigrants. (“Broken and Obsolete: An
immigration deadlock makes the US a second-rate nation”, June 18, 2012, page
24) We take in over a total of 1.2
million legal immigrants annually more that all other nations combined. They
birth another 900,000 babies annually in the USA. Then, we have 800,000
illegals still pouring over our borders annually. That’s three million
added annually that constitutes a human armada that continues to swamp this
nation and will ultimately add another 100 million immigrants by 2050—a scant
38 years from now. We are already at 315 million and will hit 438 million by
2050. (Source: PEW Center Report, Fogel/Martin “US Population Projections”) But
no one will address that degraded future. They suppress the discussion at all
costs. We are a nation of apathetic fools and idiot leaders. We face tremendous
water shortages, energy crisis, resource scarcities and food shortages, but we
keep adding sheer numbers from other countries that are already where we are
headed. Beats the daylights out of me how we could be so friggin’ stupid on so
many levels. This
population nightmare will not stop unless we collectively vote the Congress out
of business and replace this president. Name one advantage of adding another 100 million people to
this country? Will it clear our air, lower our gridlocked traffic, stop species
extinction, raise our quality of life in our cities, raise our standard of
living and bring us more food, cheaper energy and more resources? Answer: not a
chance. Frosty Wooldridge
Re: “Not
legal/not leaving” Nation, Vargas, 6/24. The story of 12 million illegal border
crossers into the US that defiantly refuse to obey the laws of the sovereign
nation of the USA.
If given the
chance, over three billion people would love to immigrate to America to taste
our freedom, standard of living and personal choices. We import over 1.2
million legally annually, more than all other countries combined. The greater
question must be asked: how many legal and illegal migrants can we absorb
before we become an ecologically, socially and overwhelmed disaster area such
as what they fled? The developing world births another 80 million new desperate
people annually. The line never ends. The PEW Hispanic Center reported that
America will import 100 million immigrants within the next 38 years by 2050.
How do we expect to water, feed, house, warm, provide jobs, educate, maintain
our environment, quality of life and standard of living with this advancing
armada of humanity? Answer: we will degrade our civilization until it cannot be
sustained and ultimately collapse.

What is the response of
Barack Obama, who took an oath to see to it that federal laws are faithfully
executed?
He is siding with the
law-breakers. He is pandering to the ethnic lobbies. He is not berating a
Mexican regime that aids and abets this invasion of the country of which he is
commander in chief. Instead, he attacks the government of Arizona for trying to
fill a gaping hole in law enforcement left by his own dereliction of duty.

Whose
Country Is This?
Pat Buchanan
Tuesday, April 27, 2010
With
the support of 70 percent of its citizens, Arizona has ordered sheriffs and
police to secure the border and remove illegal aliens, half a million of whom
now reside there.
Arizona
acted because the U.S. government has abdicated its constitutional duty to
protect the states from invasion and refuses to enforce America's immigration
laws.
"We
in Arizona have been more than patient waiting for Washington to act,"
said Gov. Jan Brewer. "But decades of inaction and misguided policy have
created an unacceptable situation."
We
have a crisis in Arizona because we have a failed state in Washington.
What is the response of
Barack Obama, who took an oath to see to it that federal laws are faithfully
executed?
He is siding with the
law-breakers. He is pandering to the ethnic lobbies. He is not berating a
Mexican regime that aids and abets this invasion of the country of which he is
commander in chief. Instead, he attacks the government of Arizona for trying to
fill a gaping hole in law enforcement left by his own dereliction of duty.
He
has denounced Arizona as "misguided." He has called on the Justice
Department to ensure that Arizona's sheriffs and police do not violate anyone's
civil rights. But he has said nothing about the rights of the people of Arizona
who must deal with the costs of having hundreds of thousands of lawbreakers in
their midst.
How's
that for Andrew Jackson-style leadership?
Obama
has done everything but his duty to enforce the law.
Undeniably,
making it a state as well as a federal crime to be in this country illegally,
and requiring police to check the immigration status of anyone they have a
"reasonable suspicion" is here illegally, is tough and burdensome.
But what choice did Arizona have?
The
state has a fiscal crisis caused in part by the burden of providing schooling
and social welfare for illegals and their families, who consume far more in
services than they pay in taxes and who continue to pour in. Even John McCain
is now calling for 3,000 troops on the border.
Police
officers and a prominent rancher have been murdered. There have been
kidnappings believed to be tied to the Mexican drug cartels. There are nightly
high-speed chases through the barrios where innocent people are constantly at
risk.
If
Arizona does not get control of the border and stop the invasion, U.S. citizens
will stop coming to Arizona and will begin to depart, as they are already
fleeing California.
A country that cannot control
its borders isn't really a country anymore, Ronald Reagan reminded us.
What
we are talking about here is the Balkanization and breakup of a nation into
ethnic enclaves. A country that cannot
control its borders isn't really a country anymore, Ronald Reagan reminded us.
The
tasks that Arizonans are themselves undertaking are ones that belong by right,
the Constitution and federal law to the Border Patrol, Immigration and Customs
Enforcement, and Homeland Security.
Arizona
has been compelled to assume the feds' role because the feds won't do their
job. And for that dereliction of duty the buck stops on the desk of the
president of the United States.
Why
is Obama paralyzed? Why does he not enforce the law, even if he dislikes it, by
punishing the businessmen who hire illegals and by sending the 12 million to 20
million illegals back home? President Eisenhower did it. Why won't he?

OBAMA
THE HISPANDERING PRESIDENT SELLING OUT HIS OWN COUNTRY FOR THE ILLEGALS’ VOTES!
*
Because
he is politically correct. Because he owes a big debt to the Hispanic lobby
that helped deliver two-thirds of that vote in 2008. Though most citizens of
Hispanic descent in Arizona want the border protected and the laws enforced,
the Hispanic lobby demands that the law be changed.
Fair
enough. But the nation rose up as one to reject the
"path-to-citizenship" -- i.e., amnesty -- that the 2007 plan of
George W. Bush, McCain, Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama envisioned.
Al
Sharpton threatens to go to Phoenix and march in the streets against the new
Arizona law. Let him go.

OBAMA’S AMERICA: Open & Undefended Borders!
“What we're seeing is our
Congress and national leadership dismantling our laws by not enforcing them.
Lawlessness becomes the norm, just like Third World corruption. Illegal aliens
now have more rights and privileges than Americans. If you are an illegal
alien, you can drive a car without a driver's license or insurance. You may
obtain medical care without paying. You may work without paying taxes. Your
children enjoy free education at the expense of taxpaying Americans.”

Obama soft on illegals enforcement
Arrests of
illegal immigrant workers have dropped precipitously under President Obama,
according to figures released Wednesday. Criminal arrests, administrative
arrests, indictments and convictions of illegal immigrants at work sites all
fell by more than 50 percent
from fiscal 2008 to fiscal 2009.
The figures show that Mr. Obama has made good on his pledge to shift enforcement away from going after illegal immigrant workers themselves - but at the expense of Americans' jobs, said Rep. Lamar Smith of Texas, the Republican who compiled the numbers from the Department of Homeland Security's U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency (ICE). Mr. Smith, the top Republican on the House Judiciary Committee, said a period of economic turmoil is the wrong time to be cutting enforcement and letting illegal immigrants take jobs that Americans otherwise would hold.

The principal beneficiaries of our current immigration policy are
affluent Americans who hire immigrants at substandard wages for low-end work.
Harvard economist George Borjas estimates that American workers lose $190
billion annually in depressed wages caused by the constant flooding of the
labor market at the low-wage end.

What will
America stand for in 2050?
The US should
think long and hard about the high number of Latino immigrants.
By
Lawrence Harrison
Palo Alto, Calif.
President Obama
has encouraged Americans to start laying a new foundation for the country – on
a number of fronts. He has stressed that we'll need to have the courage to make
some hard choices. One of those hard choices is how to handle immigration. The US
must get serious about the tide of legal and illegal immigrants, above all from
Latin America.
It's not just a
short-run issue of immigrants competing with citizens for jobs as unemployment
approaches 10 percent or the number of uninsured straining the quality of
healthcare. Heavy immigration from Latin America threatens our cohesiveness as
a nation.
The political
realities of the rapidly growing Latino population are such that Mr. Obama may
be the last president who can avert the permanent, vast underclass implied by
the current Census Bureau projection for 2050.
Do I sound like a
right-wing "nativist"? I'm not. I'm a lifelong Democrat; an early and
avid supporter of Obama. I'm gratified by his nomination of Sonia Sotomayor to
the Supreme Court. I'm also the grandson of Eastern European Jewish immigrants;
and a member, along with several other Democrats, of the advisory boards of the
Federation for American Immigration Reform and Pro English. Similar concerns
preoccupied the distinguished Democrat Barbara Jordan when she chaired the
congressionally mandated US Commission on Immigration Reform in the 1990s.
Congresswoman
Jordan was worried about the adverse impact of high levels of legal and illegal
immigration on poor citizens, disproportionately Latinos and African-Americans.
The principal beneficiaries of our
current immigration policy are affluent Americans who hire immigrants at
substandard wages for low-end work. Harvard economist George Borjas estimates
that American workers lose $190 billion annually in depressed wages caused by
the constant flooding of the labor market at the low-wage end.
The healthcare
cost of the illegal workforce is especially burdensome, and is subsidized by
taxpayers. To claim Medicaid, you must be legal, but as the Health and Human
Services inspector general found, 47 states allow self-declaration of status
for Medicaid. Many hospitals and clinics are going broke because of the
constant stream of uninsured, many of whom are the estimated 12 million to 15
million illegal immigrants. This translates into reduced services, particularly
for lower-income citizens.
The US population
totaled 281 million in 2000. About 35 million, or 12.5 percent, were Latino.
The Census Bureau projects that our population will reach 439 million in 2050,
a 56 percent increase over the 2000 census. The Hispanic population in 2050 is
projected at 133 million – 30 percent of the total and almost quadruple the
2000 level. Population growth is the principal threat to the environment via
natural resource use, sprawl, and pollution. And population growth is fueled
chiefly by immigration.
Consider what
this, combined with worrisome evidence that Latinos are not melting into our
cultural mainstream, means for the US. Latinos have contributed some positive
cultural attributes, such as multigenerational family bonds, to US society. But
the same traditional values that lie behind Latin America's difficulties in
achieving democratic stability, social justice, and prosperity are being
substantially perpetuated among Hispanic-Americans.
Prominent Latin
Americans have concluded that traditional values are at the root of the
region's development problems. Among those expressing that opinion: Peruvian
writer Mario Vargas Llosa; Nobelist author Octavio Paz, a Mexican; Teodoro
Moscoso, a Puerto Rican politician and US ambassador to Venezuela; and
Ecuador's former president, Osvaldo Hurtado.
Latin America's
cultural problem is apparent in the persistent Latino high school dropout rate
– 40 percent in California, according to a recent study – and the high
incidence of teenage pregnancy, single mothers, and crime. The perpetuation of
Latino culture is facilitated by the Spanish language's growing challenge to
English as our national language. It makes it easier for Latinos to avoid the
melting pot and for education to remain a low priority, as it is in Latin
America – a problem highlighted in recent books by former New York City deputy
mayor Herman Badillo, a Puerto Rican, and Mexican-Americans Lionel Sosa and
Ernesto Caravantes.
Language is the
conduit of culture. Consider: There is no word in Spanish for
"compromise" (compromiso means "commitment") nor for
"accountability," a problem that is compounded by a verb structure
that converts "I dropped (broke, forgot) something" into "it got
dropped" ("broken," "forgotten").
As the USAID
mission director during the first two years of the Sandinista regime in
Nicaragua, I had difficulty communicating "dissent" to a government
minister at a crucial moment in our efforts to convince the US Congress to
approve a special appropriation for Nicaragua.
I was later told
by a bilingual, bicultural Nicaraguan educator that when I used
"dissent" what my Nicaraguan counterparts understood was
"heresy." "We are, after all, children of the Inquisition,"
he added.
In a letter to me
in 1991, Mexican-American columnist Richard Estrada described the essence of
the problem of immigration as one of numbers. We should really worry, he wrote,
"when the numbers begin to favor not only the maintenance and
replenishment of the immigrants' source culture, but also its overall growth,
and in particular growth so large that the numbers not only impede assimilation
but go beyond to pose a challenge to the traditional culture of the American
nation."
Obama should
confront the challenges by enforcing immigration laws on employment to help end
illegal immigration. We should calibrate legal immigration annually to (1) the
needs of the economy, as Ms. Jordan urged, and (2) past performance of
immigrant groups with respect to acculturation.
We must declare
our national language to be English and discourage the proliferation of
Spanish- language media. We should limit citizenship by birth to the offspring
of citizens. And we should provide immigrants with easy-to-access educational
services that facilitate acculturation, including English language,
citizenship, and American values.

WE ARE MEXICO’S WELFARE and
PRISON SYSTEMS!
“Mexico’s
government has provided its nationals with valuable tools to help them cross
the border safely but Dominguez is the first American resident, with a salary
provided by U.S. taxpayers, to openly promote such a gadget. A few years ago
Mexican officials published a 32-page booklet (Guia
Del Migrante Mexicano) with safety tips for border crossers and distributed
hand-held satellite devices to ensure the violators complete their journey
safely.”
