IMMIGRATION
AS ECONOMIC WAR ON THE AMERICAN MIDDLE-CLASS.
Yes, it is by invitation of the Democrat and Republican
parties on behalf of their rich paymasters!
However, the dominant
force in American politics for the last two decades has been economic warfare
against American citizens.
This economic warfare has
two primary components; the use of government to economically favor one group
over another; and the collusion of immigrant groups to economically inhibit
Americans who oppose replacement migration.
JOSHUA FOXWORTH – AMERICAN
THINKER
"This is country
belongs to Mexico" is said by the Mexican Militant. This is a common
teaching that the U.S. is really AZTLAN, belonging to Mexicans, which is taught
to Mexican kids in Arizona and California through a LA Raza educational program
funded by American Tax Payers via President Obama, when he gave LA RAZA
$800,000.00 in March of 2009!
Another Stale, Re-
packaged 'Grand
Bargain' on Immigration
Reps. Peter King (R-N.Y.; NumbersUSA career immigration score
"C") and Tom Suozzi (D-N.Y.; NumbersUSA career immigration score
"F-") have been pumping out press releases and op-eds in support of
their forthcoming legislation, which, like past efforts from others, will once
again propose to grant amnesty to millions of aliens illegally in the United
States. (See, e.g., here, here, here, and here.)
They proudly proclaim its bipartisan nature because, well,
obviously they're each from a different party, and under such circumstances,
isn't that pretty much the definition of "bipartisan"? Of course,
that doesn't mean that the legislation's any good, but "bipartisan"
is such a fine word to use in these divided times.
It's going to be "Bold". It's also going to be a
"Grand Compromise". One supposes that the capital letters are used to
ensure that it's not mistaken for the typical, run-of-the-mill,
"new-and-improved-but-not-really" kind of product we often see from
slick manufacturers and pols. Except that it is.
There isn't any language in their legislation yet, because
there isn't any legislation; all we have so far are the representatives' own
words to tell us that it's more of the same; a kind of Gang of Two version of the
infamous (and failed) Gang of Eight amnesty. Consider:
What They Say. It will benefit up to five
million illegal aliens; an amorphously described group of "Dreamers",
plus the combined hundreds of thousands of Temporary Protected Status (TPS)
recipients from various nations, many of whom were illegally in the United
States before being granted TPS, and whose programs were not renewed by the
Trump administration. On top of all of that, family members would also benefit.
What We Know. First, the numbers dwarf many
of the other recent legislative amnesty proposals, as is evident from Figure 1.

Amnesty Beneficiaries by Bill/Proposal

demographic profile of TPS recipients, USCIS DACA population data, CIS analysis.

Second, if history is any lesson, the five million is an
undercount. In 1986, the last time there was a "grand compromise" on
immigration that included an amnesty, officials seriously underestimated the
number of aliens who would benefit. Such an undercount is likely with these
figures, too, because they don't really have any good way to estimate the
number of family members (real or manufactured to aid otherwise-ineligible
aliens) who will come out of the woodwork to gain the benefits being given
along with the principle amnesty applicant.
Third, politicians are infamous for failing to calculate the
massive amount of successful fraudulent claims that get through the system
because of the broad language usually crafted to allow applicants to qualify —
plus a confidentiality clause that effectively precludes the kind of oversight
needed to weed out fraud. This was one of the failings of the 1986 amnesty, and
it would have been in the Gang of Eight bill because of the legislative
language used, had that bill not failed. It's almost certain to be a failing in
this measure, too, because proponents of amnesties seem determined to repeat
the mistakes of the past when they craft their bills.
What They Say. "With an estimated $10
billion in revenue from five million applicants, the government would direct
$4.3 billion toward physical structures on the Southern border, $4.3 billion to
nonphysical border reinforcement and aid to Central America and the other $1.4
billion to the administration of the citizenship program."
What We Know. The amount of money actually generated in an amnesty may
not be anywhere near the figures claimed; it's absurd to calculate income based
on a one-to-one ratio between fees collected and applicants. That has never
been the case. Virtually every immigration benefit program administered by the
federal government (including the past amnesty) contains excessively generous
provisions allowing fee waivers for those who can't afford them — even as such
people are supposed to be screened out as "public charges" — and
officials are ever willing to grant the waivers and overlook applicability of
the public charge grounds of inadmissibility (or waive those, too).
The amounts to be apportioned to border control are also a
drop in the ocean compared to overall federal budget figures, as Figure 2
shows.
Figure 2. The King-Suozzi
Amnesty Bill Would Allot less than 0.1% of the Total Federal Budget to Border
Structures
|
This leads us to ask why it wouldn't simply be smarter to
reapportion some of the already collected taxes for effective immigration
controls. Keep in mind that the money this bill would speculatively generate
significantly undercounts what it will cost the federal, state, and local
governments in other areas, such as education, social safety nets, health, and
crime. Where will the money be generated to cover those costs? From taxpayers'
pockets.
In other words, no
amnesty generates nearly enough money to match what is spent in the
near or long terms. Better by far to simply use the money already coming into
federal coffers in different ways in order to bolster immigration and border
control, than to add to future social welfare burdens.
What They Say. "'The Republicans have a
legitimate concern that the last time the country did a program to legalize
folks they never did anything to stop the further migration,' Suozzi said in an
interview. 'You have to try and balance the two.'"
What We Know. Suozzi is absolutely right. The
1986 amnesty was granted up front, and the promised fixes to enforcement that
were supposed to follow closely afterward never came. That is one of the
reasons we now confront a swelling population of 11 or 12 or even 13 million
aliens residing and working illegally in our country. The failed Gang of Eight
bill went down the same path.
Suozzi's acknowledgement is all the more ironic, then,
because the bill these two representatives want to put forward would do the
same thing: Any fixes to the border, physical or otherwise, and all of the
other promises, only come to
pass after money is collected from the millions of aliens who apply (minus, of
course, the amounts not collected due to fee waivers).
Keep in mind, also, that there is nothing to stop Congress
from changing its mind on how that money is to be spent once collected. In the
meantime, though, the amnesty will have come to pass, and for lack of effective
immigration control at the border or in the interior, hundreds of thousands
more will pour through in hopes of either defrauding the government to gain
their own amnesty card, or to wait patiently for the re-set button to be pushed
for Amnesty, Round 3.
In other words, this Bold Grand
Compromise is almost certain to be another J.
Wellington Wimpy deal: Give me amnesty today and I'll gladly
pay you for it on Tuesday.

“Open border advocates, such as
Facebook's Mark Zuckerberg, claim illegal aliens are a net benefit to
California with little evidence to support such an assertion. As the CIS 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 illegals
were contributing to the economy in any meaningful way, CA, with its 2.6

MEXICO WILL DOUBLE U.S.
POPULATION
By Tom Barrett
At the current rate of invasion (mostly through Mexico, but also
through Canada) the United States will be completely over run with illegal
aliens by the year 2025. I’m not talking about legal immigrants who follow US
law to become citizens. In less than 20 years, if we do not stop the invasion,
ILLEGAL aliens and their offspring will be the dominant population in the
United States.

The
U.S.-born baby is, of course, a U.S. citizen, whose illegal alien parents are
eligible to receive, on the baby’s behalf, food stamps, nutrition from the
Women, Infants, and Children (WIC) program, and numerous tax benefits,
including the EITC.
Most
importantly, the newborn is deportation insurance for its parents. Illegal aliens
facing deportation can argue that to deport one or more parents would create an
“extreme hardship” for the new baby. If an immigration officer agrees, we’ve
added a new adult to the nation’s population. At age 21 the former birthright
citizen baby can formally apply for green cards for parents and siblings, and
they, in turn, can start their own immigration chains.
