1. When he has a new book out, he switches, but he always comes back to immigration
He and pat Buchanan are soul-brothers on that issue.

If they had their way, there would be a 500ft wall along the border and every brownish person would be loaded up in busses and sent back to Mexico (even if they are not FROM Mexico) :)

2. Sure.
He's done a lot of shows about the horrors of outsourcing and the destruction of the middle class.

and a rich one at that. Oversimplification is a mainstay of these ACTORS who will do or say anything for a buck. Probably has illegals working on his farm in NJ.

8. He's the only talking head who's been yelling about all the jobs leaving the USA
All the other talking heads are too happy being wined-and-dined at those D.C. cocktail parties.

9. He talks about the degradation of the middle class due to outsourcing and corporate greed.
That's when he isn't talking about illegal immigration.

10. Although I've not watched him much the past year
I've always supported what he says. I have always been ANTI-NAFTA. This Country will die, without it's Middle~class workers. What does NAFTA do? It Kills our Workers Jobs.
Our good ol' middle class jobs are now in China, India, and Mexico.

It's not that I'm again the illegal immigrants, I'm again those that employ them w/ slave wages. The Employers should be fined. These bastards should pay for what they are doing to this nation.

11. Illegal immigration could stop tomorrow, IF
Edited on Tue Jan-30-07 06:30 PM by SoCalDem
all employers had to post a $10K per employee bond. When they employee was cleared by immigration, the money was returned to the employer.

No bond for employees?

Boss goes to jail for a YEAR..

employee found to be illegal?

boss (and) OWNER of business go to jail for 5 years

2nd offense?

BUSINESS IS CONFISCATED AND SOLD AT AUCTION...and mandatory jail term for 10 years

goes for ALL employers.. people who hire nannies, gardeners, farm workers.. you name it.

People who get caught with drugs gat their property confiscated, so why not the "fatcats".

12. Your post makes perfect sense.
And this is an issue that crosses both sides, like: Harriet Myers et the Ports deal. This Country is joined about this.
