The imigration issue is not getting fixed because BIG money does not want it fixed. I keep hearing, "they will do jobs Americans won't do". Bull shit! Name 1 job an American won't do. But we can name plenty of jobs Americans won't do for $5 an hour. That's why they are being allowed into this country and why they are trying to slowly give them amnesty or work cards or what ever else they can think of to keep them here. It's about supply and demand, but instead of it being about product, it's about the American workforce.
OK, I'm off the soapbox for now.  |
This is exactly why there is NO universal healthcare system, which by the way is a One Billion PLUS DOLLAR industry, and there is NO universal education system (no child left behind is good, on paper, kinda, but it can suck a dick because it doesn't do shit and just wastes tax money.) Sure, they say it's "progressing," but after 8 years in the Wayzata education system, bullshit. This is also why I don't qualify for jack shit for student loans for college. I mean, they tell you all your life in school, "you can be whatever you want to be when you grow up," HA, fuck off, bullshit, no you can't. Not unless, A: you are wicked intelligent, manage to graduate with honors and get scholarships up the ass, B: have "wealthy enough" parents to pay, or C: you are so dirt poor that you can't even pay for food and get tons of grant money.
With the jobs "we won't do," you're right, we won't do jobs for $5/hr, yet we get all pissed off with "they took our jobs!!!" attitude because the immigrants sure as hell will work for $5 an hour. But that attitude can be contributed to the fact that companies are so fucking money hungry that they'll only pay $5 an hour for you to cook fries while they gross $25,000,000,000 a year in revenue. If they paid maybe $9/hr for that, thus getting the rest of the lazy-ass unemployed bitching Americans to get out a get a job, maybe they'd gross only $20,000,000,000 a year, but I guess because every big business is run by biggots, bastards, and greedy motherfuckers, that $5 billion means just too much. What the fuck would they do with that money other than let it sit in stocks or Swiss bank accounts until they die anyway?
I'm against illegal immigration, I think if you wanna live in someone's country that you do it legally like everyone else, and I don't think that there's any argument against that. I mean, let's say we start heading to Mexico, (not that we're going to, but hypothetically) you think that Mexico, much less any other country will let us get away with it? Fuck no!!! But that's another topic and is way too hypothetical to matter as there is no country with an economy, diversity, and market like the U.S, so you can probably just ignore what I said there. As much as I believe that illegal immigration is wrong, I do know that for a FUCKING FACT, ladies and gentlemen, if we we're to kick the immigrants out, it would dent our economy so fucking bad that we would probably go into a depression.
