why isn't there more outrage about the real discrimination against the white males?
Businesses hiring illegal immigrants from Mexico ... isn't that discrimination against hiring white males?

Why isn't there more outrage and attacks on the businesses which do this discriminatory practice?

There's always talk about shipping out the illegal immigrants ... but no talk about legal action against the businesses that won't hire white males who are more than willing to do the work that the illegal immigrants are hired to do, quite often without the skills that the white males clearly have ...

1. The outsourcing of manufacturing jobs affects white males the most.
As does the suppression of unions.

2. Attack business?
A Republican would sooner attack Jesus. A quite telling fact is that under Dubya, INS enforcement actions against employers was down 95% when compared to Clinton.

3. Always my argument.
My solution whenever this subject comes up (illegals) is to fine the hell out of the employers who hired them. I mean hello, if they couldn't support themselves they wouldn't stay. Sadly, when talking to White Males, in the Union, most don't get it. They just start spewing we need to get rid of them, how they suck up welfare etc... The thought never occurs to them that really whoever hired them should get the blame. These people are exploited and used to the benefit of their employer.
Me? I would pick lettuce for 50 an hour!! No problem. Americans will do the work, for a decent wage, and tolerable conditions you know mainly a port-a john with a handwashing station in the field. Oh, and some drinkable water!

4. I remember one RW point, on "pornography" ...
Edited on Fri Jul-17-09 08:32 AM by zbdent
as the person said ...

"You can open up a business that rents pornographic videos. The local government will sell you the license to rent out the videos, if you believe it's 'free speech'. The license would cost $5000. PER TITLE. Then you could 'free speech' all you want."

Not the exact quotation, but the gist is the same ...

So, I say (and I have said here many times), let's follow that example ... businesses can hire illegal immigrants to do the work that "American Citizens" cost too much to do ... just that, to do so, the businesses need to have a license to do so ... say $1000 per hire, per day ...
