More About: ImmigrationAmerican employers the real reason for illegal immigration
If
you look back at Vietnam, who started it?
What caused it? President Lyndon
Baines Johnson used the “Gulf of Tonkin Incident” to wage war on Vietnam that
killed several million people. What did he
accomplish? He killed several million
people and wreaked havoc on their civilization and ours. He died a very depressed man for his enormous
folly.
When
you look at President George W. Bush’s provocation for the Iraq War, you see
the same shallow veneer for provoking that conflict in his “Weapons of Mass
Destruction.” Saddam Hussein possessed
nothing of the sort. He remained a
sandbox dictator. Nonetheless, Bush
created a horrific war that will continue killing and maiming human beings on
both sides for years to come. President
Barack Obama buys into the same horrific stupidity and arrogance.
Yet,
whether Vietnam or Iraq, Americans find themselves as their own worst enemy. They allow their leaders to lead them by
their ‘emotional’ or even ‘jingoistic’ noses into the breach of war. Today,
on the contentious immigration front, Americans allow thousands of employers to
employ illegal aliens at a cost of jobs, taxes, welfare and loss of the rule of
law.
While 15 million Americans suffer
unemployment, about 10 million illegal aliens enjoy employment. Additionally, the U.S. Congress pumps another
1.1 million new immigrants into the country along with green card holders every
year. That’s over 200,000 every 30 days!
While
the past four presidents did nothing to stop employers of illegal aliens,
neither did U.S. citizens stand up to vote anyone that would enforce America’s
immigration laws.
Thus far, mass
immigration continues to displace Americans not only out of jobs, but out of
their language, culture and financial stability. The USA stands $14 trillion in debt.

Breaking News published a story, “U.S. plans
crackdown on employers of illegal workers.”
“The Obama administration plans to intensify a crackdown on
employers of illegal immigrants with the establishment of an audit office
designed to bolster verification of company hiring records,” said the News. “In
an interview, John Morton, chief of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, a
unit of the Department of Homeland Security, said the Employment Compliance
Inspection Center would “address a need to conduct audits even of the largest
employers with a very large number of employees.” The office would be announced
Thursday, he said.
“Morton said that the center would be staffed
with specialists who will pore over the I-9 employee files collected from
companies targeted for audits.
“In the fiscal year that ended Sept. 30, 2010, ICE conducted
audits of more than 2,740 companies, nearly twice as many as the previous year.
The agency levied a record $7 million in civil fines on businesses that
employed illegal workers.
“Enforcement activity during the Bush administration focused on
high-profile raids in which thousands of illegal immigrants were arrested and
placed in deportation proceedings. Relatively few companies and their
executives were prosecuted.
“In contrast, the Obama administration has made employers the
center of its immigration policy with “silent raids.” Critics say the policy
has penalized small employers while failing to target larger employers.
“Morton said the new center would have the “express purpose” of
providing support to regional immigration offices conducting large audits. “We
wouldn’t be limited by the size of a company,” he said.
“The audits, which have affected garment makers, fruit growers and
meat packers, result in the firing of every illegal immigrant on a company’s
payroll. Companies say this has hurt them, especially as they can’t attract American
workers even during an economic downturn.
“Ultimately, it is in a company’s best financial interest to
proactively comply with the law now rather than to face potential fines or
criminal prosecution for noncompliance in the future,” an ICE spokeswoman said.
“Morton said ICE was also seeking to expand a program enabling
businesses to work with the federal government to ensure they are employing
people authorized to work in the U.S. Called IMAGE, or ICE Mutual Agreement
between Government and Employers, the voluntary program includes training and
assessments to help a company guard against hiring illegal employees,” the News
said. “Morton will also announce Thursday that Tyson Foods Inc., which employs
100,000 people and has had immigration troubles in the past, has joined the
program, agreeing to an audit of “a certain portion of existing records.”
“The poultry processor, which says it has already taken steps to
maintain a legal work force, also agreed to establish an internal auditing
process,” Mr. Morton said.
“Morton suggested Tyson could pave the way for other big companies
to join the program,” said the News. “Tyson
faced federal human-smuggling charges in a high-profile trial that resulted in
acquittal in 2003.”
“We believe this partnership will enhance our ability to collaborate
with government officials on immigration-related matters,” said Tyson Chief
Human Resources Officer Ken Kimbro.
“Since ICE initiated the IMAGE program in 2006, only 115 companies
have signed on, with many reluctant to open their books to government scrutiny
and to invest in training and new systems to bolster their
employer-verification process.”
Will ICE enforce immigration laws and will Obama stand by
his oath of office? Like the citizens of
Missouri say, “I will believe it when I see it…show me!”
Until I see some action, we Americans remain our own worst
enemy.

Roy Beck, director of www.numbersusa.ORG,
graphically illustrates the impact of overpopulation. Take five minutes

“Immigration by the numbers—off the chart” by Roy Beck
This 10 minute demonstration shows Americans the results of
unending mass immigration on the quality of life and sustainability for future
generations: in a word “Mind boggling!” www.NumbersUSA.org
If any of us, no matter what our race, creed or color might
be, refuse to engage our U.S. Congress as we have not for 30 years as to the
population/immigration equation-our children will find themselves living in a
terribly degraded America where the American Dream will be described by the
history books as a 'fleeting fantasy' from the era of 1950 to 2010.
