WHY BARACK OBAMA'S CRONY BANKSTERS WANT HILLARY - THE GOLDEN AGE OF THE LOOTING OF AMERICA FROM WALL STREET

WHY OBAMA’S CRONY BANKSTERS WANT MORE OBAMA-CLINTONOMICS


“Clinton has also stepped up her efforts to woo billionaires who have traditionally supported Republican campaigns on the grounds that she will be a more effective “commander in chief” and defender of the interests of Wall Street.



 “Our entire crony capitalist system, Democrat and Republican alike, has become a kleptocracy approaching par with third-world hell-holes.  This is the way a great country is raided by its elite.” ---- Karen McQuillan THE AMERICAN THINKER.com



HILLARY’S CAMPAIGN MOTTO: 
WATCH ME FOLLOW THE MONEY RIGHT TO THE PHONY CLINTON FOUNDATION!

SOARING POVERTY AND JOBLESSNESS UNDER BARACK OBAMA - HILLARY CLINTON PROMISES WALL STREET MORE OBAMA-CLINTONOMICS!


KAINE AND CLINTON-OBAMA’S CRONY BANKSTERS…. Has their golden age of looting America only gotten brighter?

"Between 2009 and 2011, Kaine served as the head of the Democratic National Committee, the leadership body of the Democratic Party. He is close to Wall Street, having recently backed measures to deregulate banks."




Low-income retirees in the Detroit-area face abysmal housing conditions


Low-income retirees in the Detroit-area face abysmal housing conditions
By Debra Watson and Catherine Long 
8 August 2016
An acute lack of affordable housing along 

with deadly and deplorable conditions in existing housing for the low-income elderly has left tens of thousands of Detroit area retirees with no safe and healthy place to live out their retirement.
Affordable housing has nearly vanished for extremely low-income renters. A 2015 Urban Institute report states, “not a single county in the United States has enough affordable housing for all its extremely low-income (ELI) renters.” Many elderly and disabled people fall into the category of ELI because government assistance is so meager.
In the Wayne County, Michigan, area (Detroit), an ELI renter is one that receives less than $14,000 per year in total income. Quicken Loans CEO Dan Gilbert and a series of Democratic Detroit mayors have systematically demolished 50 percent of the available units in the Detroit area. Gilbert was the driving force behind the Detroit Blight Task Force, which was set up to carry out the wholesale demolition of existing housing stocks as part of the so-called recovery of Detroit.
The Urban Institute report gives special emphasis to Detroit where, like Milwaukee and Chicago, there are far more LI renters than there are apartments. It notes the crisis is acute and getting worse year by year. “In Wayne County, Michigan, the negative trend is the result of a precipitous drop in the supply of affordable housing for ELI renters, from about 48,000 units to about 24,500.”
Conditions at federally subsidized housing sites for seniors and disabled people in the Detroit area are deplorable. Typical are the conditions in the Detroit suburb of Ferndale where, during the heat wave of recent weeks, an elderly resident contacted the World Socialist Web Site about the lack of adequate air conditioning in her building. The tenant of Autumn House, one of the sites administered by the Ferndale Housing Commission (FHC), told the WSWS that management had set up fans in the sweltering hallways.
The Ferndale Housing Commission continues to receive complaints from tenants, but many who try to speak out at meetings are ignored.
The tenant of Autumn House told the WSWS that the Commission replies to all complaints with the refrain, “there is no money.”
Some of the conditions noted by residents of Autumn House in an FHC survey one year ago include:
* Sweltering temperatures in the building, sometimes rising to 90 – 95 Fahrenheit.
* Lack of screen doors making it impossible to leave outside doors open for ventilation.
* Lack of adequate cleaning and maintenance. Inadequate abatement of bedbugs.
The tenant told the WSWS, “I haven’t bought an air conditioner because I can’t afford it. Once you get an air conditioner it also costs for electricity. Having no air conditioning is not good for peoples’ health. Why pay rent when you’re not comfortable? This is 2016! How can you have people living in these hot boxes with no air conditioning, especially people that are old and sick?
“I have a breathing machine and an inhaler. There are people with asthma and breathing problems that end up going to the hospital. There was a guy who went to the hospital whose breathing was so bad they said he could have died.”
“The majority of people that are able to get about will go somewhere else where there is air. Last year I spent the majority of time at the library. I would go in there and sit and read books just to get the cool air and try to stay their long enough to where it would cool down outside.
A HUD inspection in 2011 leveled several citations against FHC for providing substandard housing, yet tenants still are living in terrible conditions.
“They tried to put me out when I was out of town seeing about my son in Las Vegas. The attorney from Legal Aid put a monkey wrench in it and got it canceled. He has been fighting all my battles for me, except for the charges for my toilet and my lock. I have a bill for a lock change and for repairing a toilet back-up and it comes to something over $200. I ask them, ‘how am I supposed to live if I’m giving you all my money’?
“It’s horrible to leave your apartment and then come home and find your things gone. It’s horrible in there. There was a guy who wanted to rent a place to live and he knocked on the window and I told him ‘I’m not trying to get into your business but if you don’t mind dealing with bedbugs, roaches, mice, rats and not getting any of your needs met then this is your place. Then he said ‘Oh no!’
“When I signed the papers to move in and then I said I’d like to see the apartment and she told me ‘Oh no we don’t do things like that. We will give you the keys and you can move in on such and such a day, but we don’t show you the apartment.’ So I asked her for my money back and she said, ‘We don’t do that either.’”
In September 2015, residents marched in front of HUD offices in downtown Detroit. The resident of Autumn House said, “What was so bad was when we went down to demonstrate in front of HUD, there were about 30 of us, and they came out and told us we were making too much noise, and had a few of us come inside and talk to them. I was one of them. Then they told us everyone was out to lunch.”
Several HUD inspections beginning in 2011 leveled citations against FHC for providing substandard housing, yet the problems continue.
Just last month in another housing development, a racially integrated apartment building for the elderly and disabled residents in Ypsilanti, 30 miles west of Detroit, the same types of conditions were exposed. Residents called a local news station complaining they had been living for at least six months in an 11-story apartment building, Towne Center Apartments, with elevators operational for no more than a few minutes at a time and only sporadically. Without reliable elevators, the residents in wheelchairs and frail elderly are locked in or out of their apartments for long stretches of time.
Forest City Real Estate, traded on the New York Stock Exchange with $10 billion in assets, owns Towne Center Apartments.
Medical personnel told the local television news they were unable to see their homebound patients because they themselves could not climb the stairs to the upper floors of the eleven-story building.
The FHC has been recently beset by scandal. The former director of the commission, Debra Wilson, used her position to steal from the impoverished tenants. Wilson resigned in disgrace after having been caught red-handed coming out of a tenant’s apartment with the tenant’s prescription painkillers. She had been using a passkey and was replacing residents’ painkillers with Tylenol. Despite this, FHC paid Wilson a $130,000 severance.

HILLARY CLINTON'S VISION OF AMERICA AFTER AMNESTY AND FINAL SURRENDER OF OUR BORDERS: 49 MORE MEXIFORNIA WELFARE STATES

When I wrote an article titled “Do We Want Mexifornia?” for City Journal ’s Spring 2002 issue, I neither invented the word “Mexifornia” nor intended it as a pejorative. 

VICTOR HANSEN
IMAGINE THERE'S NO BORDERS
Borders are in the news as never before. After millions of young, Muslim, and mostly male refugees flooded into the European Union last year from the war-torn Middle East, a popular revolt arose against the so-called Schengen Area agreements, which give free rights of movement within Europe. The concurrent suspension of most E.U. external controls on immigration and asylum rendered the open-borders pact suddenly unworkable. The European masses are not racists, but they now apparently wish to accept Middle Eastern immigrants only to the degree that these newcomers arrive legally and promise to become European in values and outlook—protocols that the E.U. essentially discarded decades ago as intolerant. Europeans are relearning that the continent’s external borders mark off very different approaches to culture and society from what prevails in North Africa or the Middle East.


A similar crisis plays out in the United States, 
where President Barack Obama has renounced his
former opposition to open borders and executive-
order amnesties. Since 2012, the U.S. has 
basically ceased policing its southern border. The populist pushback against the opening of the border with Mexico gave rise to the presidential candidacy of Donald Trump—predicated on the candidate’s promise to build an impenetrable border wall—much as the flood of migrants into Germany fueled opposition to Chancellor Angela Merkel.
Driving the growing populist outrage in Europe and North America is the ongoing elite push for a borderless world. Among elites, borderlessness has taken its place among the politically correct positions of our age—and, as with other such ideas, it has shaped the language we use. The descriptive term “illegal alien” has given way to the nebulous “unlawful immigrant.” This, in turn, has given way to “undocumented immigrant,” “immigrant,” or the entirely neutral “migrant”—a noun that obscures whether the individual in question is entering or leaving. Such linguistic gymnastics are unfortunately necessary. Since an enforceable southern border no 
longer exists, there can be no immigration law to 
break in the first place.
Today’s open-borders agenda has its roots not only in economic factors—the need for low-wage workers who will do the work that native-born Americans or Europeans supposedly will not—but also in several decades of intellectual ferment, in which Western academics have created a trendy field of “borders discourse.” What we might call post-borderism argues that boundaries even between distinct nations are mere artificial constructs, methods of marginalization designed by those in power, mostly to stigmatize and oppress the “other”—usually the poorer and less Western—who arbitrarily ended up on the wrong side of the divide. “Where borders are drawn, power is exercised,” as one European scholar put it. This view assumes that where borders are notdrawn, power is not exercised—as if a million Middle Eastern immigrants pouring into Germany do not wield considerable power by their sheer numbers and adroit manipulation of Western notions of victimization and grievance politics. Indeed, Western leftists seek political empowerment by encouraging the arrival of millions of impoverished migrants.
Dreams of a borderless world are not new, however. The biographer and moralist Plutarch claimed in his essay “On Exile” that Socrates had once asserted that he was not just an Athenian but instead “a citizen of the cosmos.” In later European thought, Communist ideas of universal labor solidarity drew heavily on the idea of a world without borders. “Workers of the world, unite!” exhorted Marx and Engels. Wars broke out, in this thinking, only because of needless quarreling over obsolete state boundaries. The solution to this state of endless war, some argued, was to eliminate borders in favor of transnational governance. H. G. Wells’s prewar science-fiction novel The Shape of Things to Come envisioned borders eventually disappearing as elite transnational polymaths enforced enlightened world governance. Such fictions prompt fads in the contemporary real world, though attempts to render borders unimportant—as, in Wells’s time, the League of Nations sought to do—have always failed. Undaunted, the Left continues to cherish the vision of a borderless world as morally superior, a triumph over artificially imposed difference.
Yet the truth is that borders do not create difference—they reflect it. Elites’ continued attempts to erase borders are both futile and destructive.

Borders—and the fights to keep or change them—are as old as agricultural civilization. In ancient Greece, most wars broke out over border scrubland. The contested upland eschatia offered little profit for farming but possessed enormous symbolic value for a city-state to define where its own culture began and ended. The self-acclaimed “citizen of the cosmos” Socrates nonetheless fought his greatest battle as a parochial Athenian hoplite in the ranks of the phalanx at the Battle of Delium—waged over the contested borderlands between Athens and Thebes. Fifth-century Athenians such as Socrates envisioned Attica as a distinct cultural, political, and linguistic entity, within which its tenets of radical democracy and maritime-based imperialism could function quite differently from the neighboring oligarchical agrarianism at Thebes. Attica in the fourth century BC built a system of border forts to protect its northern boundary.
Throughout history, the trigger points of war have traditionally been such borderlands—the methoria between Argos and Sparta, the Rhine and Danube as the frontiers of Rome, or the Alsace-Lorraine powder keg between France and Germany. These disputes did not always arise, at least at first, as efforts to invade and conquer a neighbor. They were instead mutual expressions of distinct societies that valued clear-cut borders—not just as matters of economic necessity or military security but also as a means of ensuring that one society could go about its unique business without the interference and hectoring of its neighbors.
Advocates for open borders often question the historical legitimacy of such territorial boundaries. For instance, some say that when “Alta” California declared its autonomy from Mexico in 1846, the new border stranded an indigenous Latino population in what would shortly become the 31st of the United States. “We didn’t cross the border,” these revisionists say. “The border crossed us.” In fact, there were probably fewer than 10,000 Spanish-speakers residing in California at the time. Thus, almost no contemporary Californians of Latino descent can trace their state residency back to the mid-nineteenth century. They were not “crossed” by borders. And north–south demarcation, for good or evil, didn’t arbitrarily separate people.

What we might call post-borderism argues that boundaries even between distinct nations are mere artificial constructs.
The history of borders has been one of constant recalibration, whether dividing up land or unifying it. The Versailles Treaty of 1919 was idealistic not for eliminating borders but for drawing new ones. The old borders, established by imperial powers, supposedly caused World War I; the new ones would better reflect, it was hoped, ethnic and linguistic realities, and thus bring perpetual peace. But the world created at Versailles was blown apart by the Third Reich. German chancellor Adolf Hitler didn’t object to the idea of borders per se; rather, he sought to remake them to encompass all German-speakers—and later so-called Aryans—within one political entity, under his absolute control. Many nineteenth- and early-twentieth-century German intellectuals and artists—among them the philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche, historian Oswald Spengler, and composer Richard Wagner—agreed that the Roman Empire’s borders marked the boundaries of civilization. Perversely, however, they celebrated their status as the unique “other” that had been kept out of a multiracial Western civilization. Instead, Germany mythologized itself as racially exceptional, precisely because, unlike other Western European nations, it was definable not only by geography or language but also by its supposed racial purity. The fairy-tale origins of the German Volk were traced back before the fifth century AD and predicated on the idea that Germanic tribes for centuries were kept on the northern and eastern sides of the Danube and Rhine Rivers. Thus, in National Socialist ideology, early German, white-skinned, Aryan noble savages paradoxically avoided a mongrelizing and enervating assimilation into the civilized Roman Empire—an outcome dear to the heart of Nazi crackpot racial theorist Alfred Rosenberg (The Myth of the Twentieth Century) and the autodidact Adolf Hitler. World War II was fought to restore the old Eastern European borders that Hitler and Mussolini had erased—but it ended with the creation of entirely new ones, reflecting the power and presence of Soviet continental Communism, enforced by the huge Russian Red Army.
Few escape petty hypocrisy when preaching the universal gospel of borderlessness. Barack Obama has caricatured the building of a wall on the U.S. southern border as nonsensical, as if borders are discriminatory and walls never work. Obama, remember, declared in his 2008 speech in Berlin that he wasn’t just an American but also a “citizen of the world.” Yet the Secret Service is currently adding five feet to the White House fence—presumably on the retrograde logic that what is inside the White House grounds is different from what is outside and that the higher the fence goes (“higher and stronger,” the Secret Service promises), the more of a deterrent it will be to would-be trespassers. If Obama’s previous wall was six feet high, the proposed 11 feet should be even better.
In 2011, open-borders advocate Antonio Villaraigosa became the first mayor in Los Angeles history to build a wall around the official mayoral residence. His un-walled neighbors objected, first, that there was no need for such a barricade and, second, that it violated a city ordinance prohibiting residential walls higher than four feet. But Villaraigosa apparently wished to emphasize the difference between his home and others (or between his home and the street itself), or was worried about security, or saw a new wall as iconic of his exalted office.
“You’re about to graduate into a complex and borderless world,” Secretary of State John Kerry recently enthused to the graduating class at Northeastern University. He didn’t sound envious, though, perhaps because Kerry himself doesn’t live in such a world. If he did, he never would have moved his 76-foot luxury yacht from Boston Harbor across the state border to Rhode Island in order to avoid $500,000 in sales taxes and assorted state and local taxes.
While elites can build walls or switch zip codes to insulate themselves, the consequences of their policies fall heavily on the nonelites who lack the money and influence to navigate around them. The contrast between the two groups—Peggy Noonan described them as the “protected” and the “unprotected”—was dramatized in the presidential campaign of Jeb Bush. When the former Florida governor called illegal immigration from Mexico “an act of love,” his candidacy was doomed. It seemed that Bush had the capital and influence to pick and choose how the consequences of his ideas fell upon himself and his family—in a way impossible for most of those living in the southwestern United States. Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg offers another case study. The multibillionaire advocates for a fluid southern border and lax immigration enforcement, but he has also stealthily spent $30 million to buy up four homes surrounding his Palo Alto estate. They form a sort of no-man’s-land defense outside his own Maginot Line fence, presumably designed against hoi polloi who might not share Zuckerberg’s taste or sense of privacy. Zuckerberg’s other estate in San Francisco is prompting neighbors’ complaints because his security team takes up all the best parking spaces. Walls and border security seem dear to the heart of the open-borders multibillionaire—when it’s his wall, his border security.
This self-serving dynamic operates beyond the individual level as well. “Sanctuary cities,” for instance, proclaim amnesty for illegal aliens within their municipal boundaries. But proud as they are of their cities’ disdain for federal immigration law, residents of these liberal jurisdictions wouldn’t approve of other cities nullifying other federal laws. What would San Franciscans say if Salt Lake City declared the Endangered Species Act null and void within its city limits, or if Carson City unilaterally suspended federal background checks and waiting periods for handgun purchases? Moreover, San Francisco and Los Angeles do believe in clearly delineated borders when it comes to their right to maintain a distinct culture, with distinct rules and customs. Their self-righteousness aside, sanctuary cities neither object to the idea of borders nor to their enforcement—only to the notion that protecting the southern U.S. border is predicated on the very same principles.
More broadly, ironies and contradictions abound in the arguments and practices of open-borders advocates. In academia, even modern historians of the ancient world, sensing the mood and direction of larger elite culture, increasingly rewrite the fall of fifth-century AD Rome, not as a disaster of barbarians pouring across the traditional fortified northern borders of the Rhine and Danube—the final limites that for centuries kept out perceived barbarism from classical civilization—but rather as “late antiquity,” an intriguing osmosis of melting borders and cross-fertilization, leading to a more diverse and dynamic intersection of cultures and ideas. Why, then, don’t they cite Vandal treatises on medicine, Visigothic aqueducts, or Hunnish advances in dome construction that contributed to this rich new culture of the sixth or seventh century AD? Because these things never existed.
Academics may now caricature borders, but key to their posturing is either an ignorance of, or an unwillingness to address, why tens of millions of people choose to cross borders in the first place, leaving their homelands, language fluency, or capital—and at great personal risk. The answer is obvious, and it has little to do with natural resources or climate: migration, as it was in Rome during the fifth century AD, or as it was in the 1960s between mainland China and Hong Kong—and is now in the case of North and South Korea—has usually been a one-way street, from the non-West to the West or its Westernized manifestations. People walk, climb, swim, and fly across borders, secure in the knowledge that boundaries mark different approaches to human experience, with one side usually perceived as more successful or inviting than the other.
Western rules that promote a greater likelihood of consensual government, personal freedom, religious tolerance, transparency, rationalism, an independent judiciary, free-market capitalism, and the protection of private property combine to offer the individual a level of prosperity, freedom, and personal security rarely enjoyed at home. As a result, most migrants make the necessary travel adjustments to go westward—especially given that Western civilization, uniquely so, has usually defined itself by culture, not race, and thus alone is willing to accept and integrate those of different races who wish to share its protocols.
Many unassimilated Muslims in the West often are confused about borders and assume that they can ignore Western jurisprudence and yet rely on it in extremis. Today’s migrant from Morocco might resent the bare arms of women in France, or the Pakistani new arrival in London might wish to follow sharia law as he knew it in Punjab. But implicit are two unmentionable constants: the migrant most certainly does not wish to return to face sharia law in Morocco or Pakistan. Second, if he had his way, institutionalizing his native culture into that of his newly adopted land, he would eventually flee the results—and once again likely go somewhere else, for the same reasons that he left home in the first place. London Muslims may say that they demand sharia law on matters of religion and sex, but such a posture assumes the unspoken condition that the English legal system remains supreme, and thus, as Muslim minorities, they will not be thrown out of Britain as religious infidels—as Christians are now expelled from the Middle East.
Even the most adamant ethnic chauvinists who want to erase the southern border assume that some sort of border is central to their own racial essence. The National Council of La Raza (“the race”; Latin, radix) is the largest lobbying body for open borders with Mexico. Yet Mexico itself supports the idea of boundaries. Mexico City may harp about alleged racism in the United States directed at its immigrants, but nothing in U.S. immigration law compares with Mexico’s 1974 revision of its “General Law of Population” and its emphasis on migrants not upsetting the racial makeup of Mexico—euphemistically expressed as preserving “the equilibrium of the national demographics.” In sum, Mexican nationals implicitly argue that borders, which unfairly keep them out of the United States, are nonetheless essential to maintaining their own pure raza.

Migration has usually been a one-way street, from the non-West to the West or its Westernized manifestations.
Mexico, in general, 
furiously opposes 
enforcing the U.S.–
Mexican border and, in 
particular, the proposed 
Trump wall that would bar 
unauthorized entry into 
the U.S.—not on any theory of borders discourse but rather because Mexico enjoys fiscal advantages in exporting its citizens northward, whether in ensuring nearly $30 billion in remittances, creating a powerful lobby of expatriates in the U.S., or finding a safety valve for internal dissent.
Note that this view does not hold when it comes 
to accepting northward migrations of poorer 
Central Americans. In early 2016, Mexico 
ramped up its border enforcement with 
Guatemala, adding more security forces, and 
rumors even circulated of a plan to erect 
occasional fences to augment the natural barriers 
of jungle and rivers. Apparently, Mexican 
officials view poorer Central Americans as quite 
distinct from Mexicans—and thus want to ensure 
that Mexico remains separate from a poorer 
Guatemala.
When I wrote an article titled “Do We Want Mexifornia?” for City Journal ’s Spring 2002 issue, I neither invented the word “Mexifornia” nor intended it as a pejorative. Instead, I expropriated the celebratory term from Latino activists, both in the academy and in ethnic gangs in California prisons. In Chicano studies departments, the fusion of Mexico and California was envisioned as a desirable and exciting third-way culture. Mexifornia was said to be arising within 200 to 300 miles on either side of an ossified Rio Grande border. Less clearly articulated were Mexifornia’s premises: millions of Latinos and mestizos would create a new ethnic zone, which, for some mysterious reason, would also enjoy universities, sophisticated medical services, nondiscrimination laws, equality between the sexes, modern housing, policing, jobs, commerce, and a judiciary—all of which would make Mexifornia strikingly different from what is currently found in Mexico and Central America.
When Latino youths disrupt a Donald Trump rally, they often wave Mexican flags or flash placards bearing slogans such as “Make America Mexico Again.” But note the emotional paradox: in anger at possible deportation, undocumented aliens nonsensically wave the flag of the country that they most certainly do not wish to return to, while ignoring the flag of the nation in which they adamantly wish to remain. Apparently, demonstrators wish to brand themselves with an ethnic cachet but without sacrificing the advantages that being an American resident has over being a Mexican citizen inside Mexico. If no borders existed between California and Mexico, then migrants in a few decades might head to Oregon, even as they demonstrated in Portland to “Make Oregon into California.”
Removing borders in theory, then, never seems to match expectations in fact, except in those rare occasions when nearly like societies exist side by side. No one objects to a generally open Canadian border because passage across it, numbers-wise, is roughly identical in either direction—and Canadians and Americans share a language and similar traditions and standard of living, along with a roughly identical approach to democracy, jurisprudence, law enforcement, popular culture, and economic practice. By contrast, weakening demarcated borders between diverse peoples has never appealed to the citizens of distinct nations. Take even the most vociferous opponents of a distinguishable and enforceable border, and one will observe a disconnect between what they say and do—given the universal human need to circumscribe, demarcate, and protect one’s perceived private space.
Again, the dissipation of national borders is possible only between quite similar countries, such as Canada and the U.S. or France and Belgium, or on those few occasions when a supranational state or empire can incorporate different peoples by integrating, assimilating, and intermarrying tribes of diverse religions, languages, and ethnicities into a common culture—and then, of course, protect them with distinct and defensible external borders. But aside from Rome before the fourth century AD and America of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, few societies have been able to achieve E pluribus unum. Napoleon’s transnational empire didn’t last 20 years. Britain never tried to create a holistic overseas body politic in the way that, after centuries of strife, it had forged the English-speaking United Kingdom. The Austro-Hungarian, German, Ottoman, and Russian Empires all fell apart after World War I, in a manner mimicked by the Soviet Union and Yugoslavia in the 1980s and 1990s. Rwanda and Iraq don’t reflect the meaninglessness of borders but the desire of distinct peoples to redraw colonial lines to create more logical borders to reflect current religious, ethnic, and linguistic realities. When Ronald Reagan thundered at the Brandenburg Gate, “Mr. Gorbachev, tear down this wall!” he assumed that by 1987, German-speakers on both sides of the Berlin Wall were more alike than not and in no need of a Soviet-imposed boundary inside Germany. Both sides preferred shared consensual government to Communist authoritarianism. Note that Reagan did not demand that Western nations dismantle their own borders with the Communist bloc.
“Something there is that doesn’t love a wall,” Robert Frost famously wrote, “That wants it down.” True, but the poet concedes in his “Mending Wall” that in the end, he accepts the logic of his crustier neighbor: “He says again, ‘Good fences make good neighbors.’ ” From my own experience in farming, two issues—water and boundaries—cause almost all feuds with neighbors. As I write, I’m involved in a border dispute with a new neighbor. He insists that the last row of his almond orchard should be nearer to the property line than is mine. That way, he can use more of my land as common space to turn his equipment than I will use of his land. I wish that I could afford to erect a wall between us.
The end of borders, and the accompanying uncontrolled immigration, will never become a natural condition—any more than sanctuary cities, unless forced by the federal government, will voluntarily allow out-of-state agencies to enter their city limits to deport illegal aliens, or Mexico will institutionalize free entry into its country from similarly Spanish-speaking Central American countries.
Borders are to distinct countries what fences are to neighbors: means of demarcating that something on one side is different from what lies on the other side, a reflection of the singularity of one entity in comparison with another. Borders amplify the innate human desire to own and protect property and physical space, which is impossible to do unless it is seen—and can be so understood—as distinct and separate. Clearly delineated borders and their enforcement, either by walls and fences or by security patrols, won’t go away because they go to the heart of the human condition—what jurists from Rome to the Scottish Enlightenment called meum et tuum, mine and yours. Between friends, unfenced borders enhance friendship; among the unfriendly, when fortified, they help keep the peace.

BARACK OBAMA AND THE LA RAZA MEXICAN DRUG CARTELS…. 

There’s more than one way to destroy America’s white middle class!



HSBC laundered hundreds of millions and perhaps billions of dollars for drug cartels responsible for the deaths of tens of thousands of people over the past two decades. The bank transferred at least $881 million of known drug trafficking proceeds, including money from the Sinaloa Cartel in 

Mexico, which is known for dismembering its victims and publicly displaying their body parts.



FOR THE DEMOCRAT PARTY, MEXICO'S INVASION, OCCUPATION AND EVER EXPANDING WELFARE STATE KEEPS WAGES DEPRESSED, BUILD THE DEMS' LA RAZA PARTY BASE, AND DESTROYS THE GOP.

WE ARE SOON TO BE A ONE PARTY NATION WITH OPEN BORDERS FOR THE MEXICAN HORDES AS THEY JUMP OUR JOBS, WELFARE OFFICES AND VOTING BOOTHS WAVING THEIR MEXICAN FLAGS!




Tom Tancredo: Paul Ryan Has Enabled Illegal Immigration ‘Since The Day He Walked Into Congress’

SIGN UP FOR OUR NEWSLETTER


Kenosha, WI – Former Congressman Tom Tancredo called on House Speaker Paul Ryan to “stand up” and “tell people the truth” about his longstanding support of the donor class’ open borders agenda.

Tancredo explained that Paul Ryan is a “poster boy” for the Chamber of Commerce and supports the Chambers’ desire for cheap foreign labor regardless of how it “hurts [his] own constituents.”
“I’ve know Paul Ryan since the day he walked into Congress,” Tancredo told reporters on Wednesday. “And I assure you… he has never, ever, ever been supportive of any of the attempts that have been made to secure our borders, or to do anything substantial about the issue of illegal immigration into the country.”

Tancredo—who was one of Congress’ most vocal advocates for securing the border and stopping illegal immigration—has endorsed businessman Paul Nehlen in his insurgent campaign against Speaker Ryan in Wisconsin’s August 9 primary election.
At a Wednesday press conference held at Nehlen’s headquarters in Kenosha, Tancredo, Tancredo urged Ryan to “tell your constituents who you are”:
Stand up in front of your constituents and say: ‘Look, I’m an open borders guy. The Chamber [of Commerce] believes in it, the Chamber wants cheap labor, [and] I respond to what the Chamber wants. I always have. I’m an establishment guy.’ Tell your constituents who you are. I think that’s the really responsible and respectable thing to do. [Tell voters] ‘I’m for TPP even though, yeah, most of my constituents are going to get hurt by it, but the Chamber wants that.’ Stand up, Paul, and say that. Because that’s the truth, and you have a responsibility to tell people the truth.
Tancredo informed reporters that he came to Wisconsin in order to “throw the B.S. flag” on Ryan’s recent campaign efforts to misrepresent his record on immigration. Tancredo continued:
When I hear [Ryan] say things about, ‘I’m dedicated about doing something about this border, I’m meeting with people to see how we can strengthen the border.’ I know, I’ve known him for a long time, I have served with him for a long time, that’s simply untrue. And so I am here to throw the B.S. flag on it. It’s not true… People are so cynical about Congress… and about politicians. And this is one reason why. Because you can have a guy, who has dedicated his entire life essentially to one set of policies and ideas and principles, and then comes home and says just the opposite.
Tancredo said that Congress has not been able to advance immigration reforms that protect American workers because of this “unholy alliance” between Democrats and Chamber of Commerce Republicans like Paul Ryan.
There were two problems when I was in Congress trying to deal with this issue… The first problem was the Democrat Party that saw massive immigration— both legal and illegal—as essentially a source of voter pool replenishment. The second problem, just as powerful an enemy by the way, was the Republican Party that saw massive immigration—both legal and illegal—as a source of cheap labor. And that philosophy was represented by the Chamber of Commerce, the U.S. Chamber of Commerce.
Tancredo explained that the problem stems from “people in the [Republican] Party like Paul Ryan, who are poster boys for the Chamber of Commerce and [who are] for this idea that: ‘We are going to supply cheap labor and I don’t care how it hurts my own constituents.’ […] How can we ignore [Ryan’s] support for things like TPP, which is another thing that decimates the job opportunities for millions… [But Ryan thinks] that’s okay, that’s okay because that’s what the Chamber wants. It doesn’t matter that his own constituents don’t want it because that’s what the Chamber wants. And that has been the biggest problem we have ever faced.”
Immigration “is a huge issue that affects every state,” Tancredo went on to say. “It’s not just ‘border states’… it’s every state in the nation. It is the nation itself, of course, that is affected by massive immigration. Both legal and illegal of low-skilled, low-wage workers.” Immigration is an “issue of jobs… [and] depressed wage rates.”
Tancredo explained Wisconsin’s August 9 primary is a “a David and Goliath situation. I understand that.” … “But you know, it’s one of those things that someone has got to say it. Someone has got to tell the truth here. I have absolutely no other reason to be here except… I want truth to win out in this campaign and if it does, if we get that message across, Mr. Nehlen will win.”




ICE Union Head Savages Paul Ryan on Out-Of-Control Illegal Immigration

House Speaker Paul Ryan is under attack on a new front, after the national union which represents U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers accused the Speaker of enabling the border crisis.

Chris Crane, president of the National Immigration and 
Customs Enforcement Council, said the 7,000 officers he 
represents “wish the speaker of the House would be more 
vocal in championing an immigration policy that defends the 
rule of law, and represents the interests of American citizens 
and lawful residents and protects their safety.”
Crane wrote Ryan deploys rhetoric which “could be adding to that perception” illegals believe they will be allowed to remain in the United States despite breaking the law — and accused Ryan of not caring about the children crossing the border who “are molested and perish.”

The border crisis has been a nightmarish crisis for women and children smuggled illegally into the U.S. “The rape trees are a common practice in this area,” as human trafficking investigator Daniel Walden told Breitbart Texas. “The women are warned in Mexico that they likely will be raped and assaulted during the trafficking process. It is common for mothers to put their young daughters on the pill or some other form of contraception before sending them north. Human trafficking is about the smuggler having power and control over their victims. The rape trees send a signal to those who follow about what will happen if you get out of line. The women are terrorized into submission.”
Such crimes against young women and children could be halted if the U.S. simply enforced its existing immigration law, Crane said.
“Any political leader who truly cares about these children will stop the rhetoric and begin working with law enforcement to develop sound immigration policy to end the crisis on our nation’s border,” he charged.
Scrambling to repel a strong primary challenge from populist candidate Paul Nehlen, Ryan has flooded his Wisconsin district with deceptive mailers touting the Speaker’s support for border security. But Ryan supported a spending bill last year which funded sanctuary cities, Barack Obama’s unilateral amnesty, and the release of criminal aliens. These are programs “which should never have been funded,” Crane wrote.
Crane said Ryan does not understand the severity of the problem: “We are in the middle of a national crisis – immigration officers are prohibited from enforcing the laws of the United States, and as a result dangerous criminal aliens are being released into American communities daily.”
“Our ICE officers are overwhelmed,” Crane warned. “Recently, ICE was ranked 314th-or dead last-in morale among 314 federal agencies surveyed by the Office of Personnel Management. While specific members of Congress have been vocal in standing up for our officers and fighting to defend law and order, we have not felt that same support from the Speaker’s office. In the nine months that you have served as House Speaker, I am not aware of you holding a single press conference devoted exclusively to addressing this national crisis.
“Indeed we were disheartened to learn that instead, the House Speaker intends to push and fund policies, which we believe would only exacerbate the situation.”
Crane requested Ryan sponsor legislation to help solve the border security crisis, meet with officers of ICE, and hold a press conference with the National ICE Council within the next week.
Ryan is already being blasted by Phyllis Schlafly and former Congressman Tom Tancredoon his immigration record.

94,333,000 Americans Out of the Labor Force in July


SIGN UP FOR OUR NEWSLETTER


The number of Americans not in the labor force declined but still topped 94 million last month, according to data released Friday by the Labor Department.

The Bureau of Labor Statistics reports that 94,333,000 Americans were neither employed nor had made an effort to find work in July — down 184,000 compared to the month prior.
The labor force participation rate also increased slightly, hitting 62.8 percent in July.

While tens of millions of Americans were out of the workforce — due to discouragement, schooling, retirement or otherwise — and the participation rate remained at levels not seen since the 1970s the BLS reported a relatively decent level of job growth.
According to the government data, last month the economy added 255,000 jobs and the unemployment rate remained at 4.9 percent.
The labor force also grew by 407,000 people, reaching 159,287,000. Of those participating in the labor force, 151,517,000 were employed and 7,770 were unemployed.
Broken down by gender, the unemployment rate and participation rate for working-age men was 5.0 percent and 69.2 percent, respectively. Among working-age women the unemployment rate was 4.7 and participation rate was 56.8 percent.
Among whites last month, the unemployment rate was 4.3 percent and the participation rate was 62.9 percent. Black unemployment was 8.4 percent with a participation rate of 61.2 percent. Asian unemployment was 3.8 percent and the participation was 63.4 percent and Hispanic unemployed was 5.4 percent with a 65.8 percent participation rate.

The number of immigrants employed in the United States reached another monthly record high in July, according data released Friday by the Bureau of Labor Statistics.

The BLS reports that 25,984,000 foreign-born people had a job in the U.S. last month, up 133,000 compared to the previous record set in June.
The Labor Department defines the “foreign-born” as “those residing in the United States who were not U.S. citizens at birth.”

In other words, the BLS says that the “the foreign-born” are people born to foreigners in areas outside the U.S. or U.S. territories like Puerto Rico or Guam.
By contrast, the BLS explains, “The native born are persons who were born in the United States or one of its outlying areas such as Puerto Rico or Guam or who were born abroad of at least one parent who was a U.S. citizen.”
Meanwhile, according to Friday’s not seasonally-adjusted data, the unemployment rate among the foreign-born was 4.2 percent and the labor force participation rate was 65.7 percent.
The number of native-born Americans with a job also saw improvements last month. According the BLS, native-born Americans added 313,000 more jobs, reaching 126,453,000 in July.
Additionally, the unemployment level among native-born Americans was 5.3 percent and the labor force participation rate was 62.9 percent in July.
In recent years the immigrant population in the U.S. has been experiencing a more fruitful rate of job growth compared to native-born Americans. Since President Barack Obama took office, the civilian noninstitutional population of immigrants has grown by 6,304,000 and experienced a net job growth of 4,609,000. The native-born population has grown 12,579,000 and added 7,392,000.
Overall last month the economy added 255,000 jobs and the unemployment rate was 4.9 percent in July.
