Trojan Horses: 3 Liberal Policies that Secretly Push Open Borders



I've lost count of the pundits and people who call themselves comedians who refer to the absurdity of Trump.  He is an interesting and contradictory guy, but what is most notable about his presidency is how consistent, reasonable, and realistic his policies are.  His policies do not work at cross purposes.  One can disagree with his choices, but there is no basis to call them absurd.
Democrats are a different story.  They really are absurd.  Library shelves are filled with books about liberal policies that either achieve the exact opposite of the ones intended or cancel the effect of other policies.  We have before us another example with the total commitment to open and unfettered immigration.  That the desired immigration is not merit-based adds to the absurdity.
The three most cherished goals for Democrats are these.
1. Reduce carbon emissions to combat global warming (sorry – climate change).
2. Reduce income inequality, at least to the golden-age level of the 1950s.
3. Provide affordable access to health care for all Americans.
We'll look at each in turn, but pay special attention to health care, as it ties into the need for merit-based immigration.

2. Income inequality.  For years, the left made fun of the conservative qualities of the 1950s.  Lately, Democrats have discovered that there was much less income inequality in those dark times than we have today.  What was different about those days?  There were many fewer immigrants than we have today.  
We are a country of immigrants, but the flow has ebbed and crested.  From 1925 to 1965, America had much more limited immigration.  For that reason, in the '50s, it was possible to pass weeks at a time without meeting a new person of foreign birth.  Today, 46 million Americans were born in another country.  That's 15% more people than live in California.  It is the number of people who live in Spain.
It isn't just a matter of more poor people entering the country.  These immigrants compete for jobs with native-born Americans – of all races – and drive down wages across the board.  I have yet to find anyone who disputes this effect.  All that's needed to verify the connection is to look at the open borders positions of the National Association of Manufactures and the Chamber Commerce.
There is a double-edged irony here.  With sustained rapid economic growth, it is possible that the existing labor pool and even a much larger one would be needed to fill newly created jobs and sustain prosperity and still have 1950s-level wages.  In plain English, over time, a Trump economy is more likely to support additional immigration than an Obama economy.  I think that will happen, eventually. 
Until that day arrives, why are the income equality people pushing so hard for more immigration?
3. Affordable access to health care.  This is the holy grail for Democrats.  Obamacare is a feeble attempt to move in that direction.  It has many faults, and the most glaring is that it created more effective demand without increasing supply.  Current immigration policies don't help with either side of the problem.
In a SOTU address, Obama said illegals weren't eligible for Obmacare.  Rep. Joe Wilson shouted out, "You lie!"  Impolite, but not incorrect.  Even if Obama had been truthful, the mere presence of additional people, legal or not, increases the demand and therefore lengthens the line we face in getting medical care.  The line can be for some important treatments.  Oregon tried to remove an illegal alien from the liver transplant waiting list.  The ACLU intervened, and the woman is back on the list.  When that can happen anything is possible.  
In all their programs, Democrats always assume supply.  If access to medical care is provided, then presto: medical care will be provided.  Obamacare made no effort to increase the number of providers, even though the United States is facing a severe shortage of doctors and nurses.  By 2025, the shortfall in doctorswill be 90,000.  Then there are nurses:
Nursing shortages have occurred in the past, but the current crisis is far worse. The Bureau of Labor Statistics estimates there will be more than a million registered nurse openings by 2024, twice the rate seen in previous shortages. 
These shortages cause problems all along the health care system, from school nurses' offices to hospitals.  
Why would Democrats, who say they value health care as an inherent human right, not favor a merit-based system that gives preference to doctors and nurses?  There are other policies to train more providers we could try and wish we had tried, but right now, the shortages are real.  Why have a lottery system or system based on the third cousin once removed of a previous immigrant?  While it might be nice to have the company of that cousin, it might be even nicer to have a person who can set a broken leg or perform an appendectomy. 
The shortage of doctors and nurses applies to other areas as well.  Why not favor people with various skills over people randomly selected?  It's not as though we'd be breaking new ground.  Canada and Australia have this exact policy. 
Calling a group of people absurd is a little harsh, but it's actually their word pointed back at them.  Still, I'm willing to take a softer approach.  In the coming immigration debate, I'll be politely listening.  Democrats can explain how their immigration policies are like Trump's: consistent, reasonable, realistic, and designed to help the country.

“Where aliens and jobs are concerned, even many categories of nonimmigrant aliens (temporary visitors) including aliens who lawfully enter under the Visa Waiver Program or with tourist visas may not work in the United States and immediately become subject to removal (deportation) if they seek gainful employment.”  ----MICHAEL CUTLER – FRONTPAGE mag


NumbersUSA’s Rosemary Jenks: E-Verify Ignored in DACA Negotiations 

 

Because ‘Members of Congress Know It Will Work’




by ROBERT KRAYCHIK23 Jan 2018

Members of Congress broadly oppose a legislative nationwide E-Verify mandate for employers because “they know it will work,” said NumbersUSA’s Rosemary Jenks, explaining why E-Verify is not being pushed in congressional negotiations for an amnesty deal for recipients of the Obama administration’s Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA). Jenks further noted that both parties are beholden to special interests supportive of “mass migration.”


 THE LA RAZA SUPREMACY DEMOCRAT PARTY'S VISION OF AMERICA:


DEATH OF THE GOP AND 49 MEXIFORNIAS!

Adios, Sanctuary La Raza Welfare State of California
A fifth-generation Californian laments his state’s ongoing economic collapse.
By Steve Baldwin
American Spectator, October 19, 2017
What’s clear is that the producers are leaving the state and the takers are coming in. Many of the takers are illegal aliens, now estimated to number over 2.6 million. 
The Federation for American Immigration Reform estimates that California spends $22 billion on government services for illegal aliens, including welfare, education, Medicaid, and criminal justice system costs. 
                                                                                          
BLOG: MANY DISPUTE CALIFORNIA’S EXPENDITURES FOR THE LA RAZA WELFARE STATE IN MEXIFORNIA JUST AS THEY DISPUTE THE NUMBER OF ILLEGALS. APPROXIMATELY HALF THE POPULATION OF CA IS NOW MEXICAN AND BREEDING ANCHOR BABIES FOR WELFARE LIKE BUNNIES. THE $22 BILLION IS STATE EXPENDITURE ONLY. COUNTIES PAY OUT MORE WITH LOS ANGELES COUNTY LEADING AT OVER A BILLION DOLLARS PAID OUT YEARLY TO MEXICO’S ANCHOR BABY BREEDERS. NOW MULTIPLY THAT BY THE NUMBER OF COUNTIES IN CA AND YOU START TO GET AN IDEA OF THE STAGGERING WELFARE STATE MEXICO AND THE DEMOCRAT PARTY HAVE ERECTED SANS ANY LEGALS VOTES. ADD TO THIS THE FREE ENTERPRISE HOSPITAL AND CLINIC COST FOR LA RAZA’S “FREE” MEDICAL WHICH IS ESTIMATED TO BE ABOUT $1.5 BILLION PER YEAR.

Liberals claim they more than make that up with taxes paid, but that’s simply not true. It’s not even close. FAIR estimates illegal aliens in California contribute only $1.21 billion in tax revenue, which means they cost California $20.6 billion, or at least $1,800 per household.

Nonetheless, open border advocates, such as Facebook Chairman Mark Zuckerberg, claim illegal aliens are a net benefit to California with little evidence to support such an assertion. As the Center for Immigration Studies has documented, the vast majority of illegals are poor, uneducated, and with few skills. How does accepting millions of illegal aliens and then granting them access to dozens of welfare programs benefit California’s economy? If illegal aliens were contributing to the economy in any meaningful way, California, with its 2.6 million illegal aliens, would be booming.
Furthermore, the complexion of illegal aliens has changed with far more on welfare and committing crimes than those who entered the country in the 1980s. 
Heather Mac Donald of the Manhattan Institute has testified before a Congressional committee that in 2004, 95% of all outstanding warrants for murder in Los Angeles were for illegal aliens; in 2000, 23% of all Los Angeles County jail inmates were illegal aliens and that in 1995, 60% of Los Angeles’s largest street gang, the 18th Street gang, were illegal aliens. Granted, those statistics are old, but if you talk to any California law enforcement officer, they will tell you it’s much worse today. The problem is that the Brown administration will not release any statewide data on illegal alien crimes. That would be insensitive. And now that California has declared itself a “sanctuary state,” there is little doubt this sends a message south of the border that will further escalate illegal immigration into the state.
"If the racist "Sensenbrenner Legislation" passes the US Senate, there is no doubt that a massive civil disobedience movement will emerge. Eventually labor union power can merge with the immigrant civil rights and "Immigrant Sanctuary" movements to enable us to either form a new political party or to do heavy duty reforming of the existing Democratic Party. The next and final steps would follow and that is to elect our own governors of all the states within Aztlan." 
Indeed, California goes out of its way to attract illegal aliens. The state has even created government programs that cater exclusively to illegal aliens. For example, the State Department of Motor Vehicles has offices that only process driver licenses for illegal aliens. With over a million illegal aliens now driving in California, the state felt compelled to help them avoid the long lines the rest of us must endure at the DMV. 
And just recently, the state-funded University of California system announced it will spend $27 million on financial aid for illegal aliens. They’ve even taken out radio spots on stations all along the border, just to make sure other potential illegal border crossers hear about this program. I can’t afford college education for all my four sons, but my taxes will pay for illegals to get a college education.
