An HP Rant: The criminal Mexican invasion of America and the late great American housing ponzi scheme

Yes, folks, it all goes together...

Millions (the government says 11 Million, I'd lean more towards
20 Million) of Mexicans illegally broke into the United States over the past decade. Invaded us. Broke our laws. Cheated the system. Jumped the line. Call it what you will, and I'll call it what it is - an illegal invasion.

It is not racist to call Mexicans "Mexicans". Just like calling Russians "Russians". Get over it, and get over your PC-self on this one.

These gate-crashers stormed America and stole the jobs of legal Americans. So at the same time we were losing our manufacturing base to China, we lost millions of other jobs to illegal Mexicans at home and had our wages surpressed by a new, ready-made and illegal labor force.

Do I blame the Mexican people? No. If I lived in Mexico and job prospects were bleak, I couldn't feed my family, and there was a way to make a better living by simply walking across the border, I'd have to think about it. Illegal or not. People are going to do what they need to do to better themselves and take care of their families.

So I simply blame the US and Mexican governments and the businesses that knowingly hired them.

The Democrats want votes (and millions of birthright US citizen Mexican babies born on US soil), as they were out of power and desperate.

The Republicans were doing what they do best - helping American businesses lower costs and increase profits. A wave of slave labor who'd work for peanuts vs. legal Americans was too good to pass up for the GOP and their business buddies.

And now the Dems and GOP are even thinking of offering the illegals
amnesty. Now there's a terrible idea.

Then of course, there's the corrupt Mexican government. They love the billions and billions of US$ being sent back to Mexico.


And you know who LOVED this illegal invasion of the US? You got it - the REIC. The housing bubble demand for new houses required significant new labor - roofers, fencers, painters, framers, etc. It's estimated 30% of all construction jobs have now gone to Latinos.

To earn those
massive bonuses, the REIC CEOs also needed to lower their costs at the same time their profit margins were exploding due to irrational pricing. The key was hiring cheap illegal Mexican workers to replace the fairly paid American workers.

Cha-ching.

Well, everything was great for awhile - for the Mexicans, for the Democrats, for the GOP and for the REIC.

And then the bubble burst.

So now what do we have? Well, for starters, we've got 20 Million Mexicans stuck here in the US and many of them now without jobs. We've got hundreds of thousands of new Mexican US citizen
birthright babies with illegal and unemployed parents. We've got millions of Americans who've lost their jobs to illegal Mexicans, and we've got a declining US wage due to the millions of illegals in the US who'll work for cheap.

What we'll have next is an exploding crime and unemployment rate, soaring costs for supporting the illegals and their babies, and some serious moral issues of what to do with the illegals we no longer need now that the REIC jobs are going away.

You thought the illegals were pissed this summer when they were out protesting in the streets? Well, just wait, because now they're
unemployed, hungry and even more pissed. And to add insult to injury, some of them even bought homes at the peak using toxic mortgages and are well on their way to defaulting and running.

Now that's squaring the circle, wouldn't you say?

keith, don't you think we have gone past this stage now? okay, we know we have a problem. we know that there's some 11 or 20 million of them. the question is; what is the solution. some repubs (i.e. j.d. hayworth) who took a strong and stearn stance lost in the nov. 7 election.

moving forward, what soultion can you offer keith? let's not get stuck with the same argument. let's not waste our time on something that is an old issue, without offering some creative solutions.

REAL ESTATE REALITY HURTS. !!!

Great question.

My solution is:

1) make it illegal with $100,000 fines to knowingly hire any illegal of any nationality

2) make it illegal to offer any government services to any illegal

3) build the fence and send the military to the border

4) check documents and increase deportations

5) announce loudly that we're going to uphold the laws of the country and that anyone in the US illegally will be rooted out and sent home

6) Increase the number of legal immigrants allowed into the country, with a clearly defined and fair process for becoming a US resident and eventual citizen.

7) Do NOT offer amnesty of any kind. That just encourages and rewards illegal behavior.

Harsh? Yes. Necessary? Yes.

No problem calling Mexicans that - Mexican, but you use the word to mean "illegal immigrant" when in fact an illegal immigrant can be Chinese, Canadian, Salvadorian, Italian, Honduran, French, Japanese, etc... but you chose to interchange a crime, "illegal alien" with only one nationality. Yes, I know it sounds like semantics - but how would you feel if everyone interchanged the words "arrogant-fat-racist-xenophobes" with "American" - oh wait never mind.

Anonymous said...

The problem with amnesty is, once these people are legal, the companies hiring them won't want to pay minimum wage and will go seeking a new wave of illegals.

Don't worry. Once the bottom falls out things will change fast. Americans are too fat and happy right now to really care.

Anonymous said...

The solution is to allow any citizen to sue a company that hires illegal for damages AND a job. And they have to pay for the attorney's bills.

That way we don't have to wait around for the government to do something, which it doesn't seem to want to do.

Straight up brother. But um, Keith, could you tell us how you really feel.

I had my roof redone on my tiny gold mine of a shack on a resort east coast island a few years back. The guy I hired brought along 3 young men who appeared to come from a large country south of Arizona. The guy told me they were hard working and did a great job for him, and that he would never hire another "islander" again. My roof never leaked in 35 yeears. Days after these hard working guys finished and for months on end, my damn roof leaked right into my bedroom and onto my bed. I never saw those guys again, and the guy I hired finally gave up on trying to fix it. I Finally decided to sell the house for other reasons and cash in with the roof in the disclosure. Made 250k, and now I'm renting cheap. HIRE the guys that are paying taxes and don't hesitate to ask for proof if their employees are legal. I do it now.

Show me a good American that can read this one line from those articles and hold still hold their breakfast down:

"Sub-contracting gives the business owner the ability to use specialized workers only for as long as they are needed. It also gives the company the opportunity of accepting the lowest of all possible bids and frees them from having to pay out for health insurance, unemployment tax and workers' compensation."

1. Agreed, but take out "knowingly". It leaves to many loopholes. If we saw the some convictions to the greedy who hire to save $$$, everyone would get up to speed real quick and take the time to screen properly. Many companies perform background checks and do grug tests. There is no reason to hire an illegal, knowingly or not.

The Employers (along with laxed Govt policy) is the REASON!

2. agreed

3. Not only that, but a "shoot on site" policy would be a nice deterrent to those caught.

4. agreed

5. yes

6. I say put an end to immigration altogether.

7. yes.

President Kennedy was assassinated 43 years ago today. You can trace all the rot in this country back to his unsolved murder. That was the begining of the end for the United States as the leading industrialized nation on this planet.
Under JFK we had a regulated economy where most of what is being done today (including the massive importation of cheap labor) would be illegal.

There has been no economic growth in this country in real physical terms since about 1966.

keith, what about this:

1.) no amnesty - agree!
2.) temporary worker can be hired through an approved agency responsible for their presence and departure after their term is complete. failure to do so will impose a hefty fine to the said employment agency.
3.) border security - absolutely!
4.) legal immigration must be base in "point" system like canada and make education, ability to speak english, as one of the few criteria.
5.) round up all illegals and turn them over to their respective embassies. thereafter, any illegal found benefiting from our government services or entitlements, will reduce any foreign aid to the said country responsible, equal to the cost of government services provided.

how's that.

My grandfather came to the United States from Mexico in the 1920s to work in the auto industry. When the stock market crashed in 1929, Mexican nationals were fired from the auto companies, mainly Ford, and ordered out of the country. My grandfather lost his job.

Try Googling "repatriation" - that's when Mexicans and Americans of mexican decent were deported. Exact numbers will never be known, but it was in the hundreds of thousands. It didn't help the economy the way people thought- they deported a bunch of consumers.

The family doesn't talk about it much- so the details are sketchy. My grandfather married a US citizen at the time the "repatriation" was occuring- this did not protect him however. He was deported, and my grandmother, of Mexican and American heritage, fled to an Aunt in rural Kentucky.

A single mother without resources, she ended up dying of TB at 27, having never seen a doctor. My mother still suffers from the result of a serious injury she had as a child that went untreated.

My mother grew up in the California foster care system. She worked her way through college and now has an advanced degree- as do all of her children.

I wonder what would have happened if my grandfather had not been deported. I might have grown up knowing my grandparents, my mother could have had medical treatment, and the state of CA wouldn't have had to pay to raise my mother.

Like most 2nd and 3rd generation Mexican-americans, you wouldn't know my heritage if I didn't tell you. My appearance, my name, my accent won't give me away- l am an educated American.

Illegal immigration is a serious problem that needs to be addressed. However the Repatriation didn't benefit America, and hurt a lot of Americans. The pain is still here, 75 years later. Please look at our history, and learn from it, before advocating policies that are detrimental to US citizens.

Dear Naomi,

Where did all of the people that use to do these jobs go? Did this uneducated, always present class, of low-end Americans go off to college? Are they now aerospace engineers?

Or, are they robbing your homes and selling crack on the street corners because theire jobs were taken?

Anonymous said...

You nativists want the impossible: no imported workers from Mexico, no jobs sent overseas, high wages for 'mericans, but also affordable lifestyles. Sorry, the math does not work.

If you seal the borders then you send more jobs overseas and what jobs that can't be will command a higher wage which means prices will rise. Some industries will simply be lost. Some will become more mechanized which means outright job losses.

And when you make it harder for migrants to cross the border you make them more likely to try to move here permanently and bring their families. For hundreds of years the border was open and mexican workers would come here to work a season or two and go home: they did not want to permanently locate here. With all the fences and trouble you've increased the willingness for them to permanently move.

What is needed is very large legal guest worker program with quotas and with finite terms of stay.

===================================
You sure are operating under a false assumption. To date I havent seen any proof of exactly who was behind the "911" attacks. And I've seen no real effort but US government agencies to get to the bottom of that attack.
No wonder youre such a screaming mimi, you jump from one wrong conclusion to the next.
And for those crying about the invasion of cheap labor from the south. Have you clowns any idea what has been done to the economies of Mexico and the rest of Ibero-America by the same financiers which are in the process of destroying the US economy? There isnt an illegal immigration problem there is a "collapsing" world economy which is at the fag end of 40 plus years of what they called "the post industrial society".

We must help Mexico and ourselves re-develop our physcial economies, then you wont have any Mexicans goming across the border.

FDR's Good Neighbor policy is a good example of whats required.

foxwoodlief said...

I know it isn't politically correct to call the illegals an invasion but that is what it is no matter what the nationality. I personally don't have an issue with immigration but it should be legal and if the demand is there we should allow it as long as it benefits the USA. We need an open door for those with skills, education and resources. We do need lesser skilled immigrants too. I don't see too many welfare folk working the fields and if we suggest workfare instead of welfare we are accused of slavery. Work is slavery when you don't work for yourself or reap the rewards of your labor.

The biggest problem is Mexico cries foul and racism when we try to confront the problem yet if 20 million yankees crossed the border there would be an outcry of imperialism. Nationalism is very strong in Mexico and we'd probably be at war if half that number of Americans invaded their country. Americans don't have half the rights there that illegals have here.

The other problem is the rich there won't share the wealth and use emmigration as a safety valve. After all the years of NAFTA and being next to the biggest consumer in the world you'd think Mexico would have the industrial growth of China or Vietnam but no, they have a corrupt, backward, country. The north is richer and the indian south is poor.

If the Illegals didn't have work here and send their money home there definitely would be a revolution there.

I say make a treaty but one that is two-way. Make Mexico part of the common wealth and force them to adapt to our ways and let our laws rule! When Americans in Mexico can have the same rights as Mexicans in the USA then Mexico might have a chance of becoming a prosperous country that shares the wealth and then young Mexicans won't need to leave for the USA.

Anonymous said...

I love how people with enough spare time and money to post comments on a housing blog complain about having their jobs stolen by folks who are standing in line at the crack of dawn every morning looking to work doing whatever hard labor job they can get.

It's even richer that the person who started the complaining is himself an immigrant in a country he was not born in, working a job he "stole" from some perfectly qualified native born worker.

I would wager many of these same complainers (judging by the Michael Savage model of white male nativist whiners) would like to see affirmative action eliminated and for hiring to be based purely on market forces, even though the other side of their mouth turns around and asks the government to help them fight market forces by combatting competition from immigrant labor. What a bunch of hypocrites. The market is either all powerful and good, or it isn't and requires government intervention. It is not all powerful and good only when it helps you and you only.

And if you decide the market requires government intervention, then don't complain about affirmative action, and then force the government to reign in the market on immigrant labor by regulating the source: the businesses who hire the labor, and not the laborers whose only fault is that they don't have as much of a sense of entitlement as you do.

Otherwise, you're all a bunch of hypocritical whiners.

patch,

Is there a law against a person standing in public?

(I'll answer that for you since you are obviously not very bright.)

Not unless there is a warrant for that person's arrest.

Now, I suppose we could pass a law that allows the police in this country to arrest anyone standing in public based on suspicion of them not being a citizen, then what criteria is used to justify that suspicion? Ethnicity? Skin color? Yeah, that'd be a good idea. It would go over real well with the millions of US citizens who could be harassed as a result of that criteria for doing nothing more than standing in public.

I suppose you would like that, though, wouldn't you? It's amazing to me how 20 years after the height of the Soviet communist threat so many people in this country have become proponents of fascism.

What youre missing is the truth. Do you really believe the BLS number of 4.5% unemployment? You can triple that percentage and still fall short of the truth. Not to mention our economy is choked full of unproductive over head jobs, like real estate, hamburger flippers, stock sales, customer service etc. The percentage of productive employment versus overhead is shrinking all the time. With the collapse of the auto sector we'll lose all of our machine tool capabilities and when that goes "goodbye" US economy.

I agree with your rant and overall solution. The Mexicans coming across can't be blamed for trying to find a better life, but the government-industrial complex sure as hell can be blamed for giving them one!!

Repatriation is nothing compared to what is coming. There are a HUGE number of really pissed-off Americans that have been disenfranchised by the government's "arrangement" and are just itching for a little payback. This payback will be bloody and many will die.

1/3 of all prison inmates are illegal aliens (primarily Mexicans) and this fact is not lost on Joe Sixpack. Joe is pissed and Joe is heavily armed, much more than the Mexican, and there are many more American Joe's than there are illegals. There are 250 million guns in the US and Joe won't hesitate to use them once the depression is in full swing and there is chaos in the streets.

If I were a Mexican illegal in the US right now, I would be developing a good exit strategy, and get out while it is still safe to do so.

corvinus,

I'm not necessarily saying a little bit of isolationsim isn't bad. You don't see me defending NAFTA, do you? However, complete isolationism will get you nowhere fast. See what happened to China from 1500 - 1900. They lost technological superiority (which they previously held over the rest of the world) to Europe and ended up having all of their major coastal cities attacked and conquered by European powers (Shanghai - Germany, Hong Kong - Britan, Macau - Portugal, etc).

National interests should not be given up on in the name of free trade, but only looking inward can also have diastrous effects. It's a delicate balance.

==================================
Hey imbecile, the issue is sovereignty not isolationism. And the period in question (1500-1900) which you misuse to make a fraudulent argument was actually the period when Europe came out of the Dark Ages due to the Council of Florence initiated Renaissance.

It was only after that break through in science and statescraft did the world see an explosion in science, arts,living standard, population growth etc. And it was this which lead to the discovery of the North Americas.

And China was conquered by the privatised armies of the British East India Company called the British Opium Wars. All done in the name of FREE TRADE by the way.

Knock off the sophistry. The only way human kind has developed is through the concept of the sovereign nation state. All "free trade" has done through out history is it has ushered in one dark age and collapse after the other.

Tabasco says: I suppose you would like that, though, wouldn't you? It's amazing to me how 20 years after the height of the Soviet communist threat so many people in this country have become proponents of fascism.

Maybe your problem is you're another one of those clowns that never wore a military uniform and actually defended this country...

Tell us Tabasco, why is that you defend illegal immigration?

What's your gain or loss?

On Thanksgiving I always think of how the native Americans fed the Pilgrims, taught them how to live off native foods here and then about how we subsequently exterminated most of them and stole their land. By "We" I mean the Europeans who were able to come here and take North America by force due to superior weaponry and biological warfare (think blankets infected with Smallpox). I also think of the Indians of South and Latin America who were also dispossessed of their land by the Spanish Conquerors who had cannons, horses, steel swords and guns against the Indians' clubs and spears. With respect to the IMMIGRATION ISSUE, I feel that people with native American blood, whether Aztec blood or Apache, have a right to travel and be anywhere in the Americas, since they had this continent stolen from them. Since many of our ancestors murdered most of the North American Indians, wouldn't it be ethical to allow the surviving Mexican and Latin American Indians to come here? If you look at people crossing the border, you can easily see that they are not of European ancestry. For that matter, why not unite Mexico and the United States (and legalize all illegal drugs, thus ending cross-border drug trade)? If you go back to the Mexican-American War, the states of California, Utah, Nevada,Colorado, Arizona and New Mexico, and Texas were forcibly grabbed by the United States from Mexico and the land rights of people who owned land there cancelled. The treaty of Guadalupe Hildalgo was signed while we occupied Mexico city and was not a deal made among equals. The war itself was totally provoked by Americans living in Texas and the Polk administration was only too ready to follow up with invasion of Mexico and ridiculous demands for all those states as reparations. Mexican immigrants here offer us a window on how to survive in a world of surplus labor. Most citizens don't have the slightest idea how hard illegals work, how simply they live, and in many cases what terrifically affectionate and honest people they are. Many (not all) of them would be a tremendous addition to the U.S. ~Gringo

last anonymous,

You've obviously missed the point. Why is it that the European countries ended up sailing ships half way around the world to engage in free trade with China, but China (who was technologically superior to the Europeans up to around the 16th century) didn't end up sending ships half way across the world to engage in free trade with Europe, ending up with the Chinese losing control of much of their country in the 19th century?

Because the unified and extremely sovereign at the time Chinese government/dynasties started becoming increasingly isolationist, in stark contrast from the prior 2000 years of their history when the Chinese conquered much of SE Asia and Chinese explorers and traders travelled to far flung islands in the Pacific and all the way to Madagascar and Easern Africa, you dolt.

Any more salient non-points you want to make?

Amazing that you can see the real problem of the Mexican invasion and still support the Democrats.

The ignorant Republicans have dropped the ball in instituting any meaningful reforms but the Democrats thrive on the flood of immigration. Any one with their hand out is a friend of the Democrats.

I'm disgusted with both parties, but the Republicans are the lesser of two evils.

To clarify, I also don't like blatant hypcrisy as exhibited by Ex-Patriot Keith who states that he "doesn't blame the Mexican people" then espouses that he would "announce loudly that we're going to uphold the laws of the country and that anyone in the US illegally will be rooted out and sent home".

Besides the fact that Keith complains about mexican immigrants "stealing" jobs while he himself has immmigrated to another country in order to "steal" a job from somebody else, it is also quite hypocritical to state you don't blame somebody for something but then call for this same person to be punished for it.

Therefore, when faced with this rank stupidity, I feel inclined to insert my 2 cents. Take it or leave it.

You obviously missed the point. It was the Dutch and British East India Companies doing the trade with China and India. But the point to make is isolationism is irrelevant to this discussion. The only issue is whether the nations of this world our sovereign or whether private bankers actually sit atop nations dictating the terms.

Youre obviously adept in the art of masturbation.

what pisses me off is there are millions of people around the world that we'd love to have in the US - the best and the brightest. But we get stuck with the dregs who just bust into the country illegally.

that's the problem.

A galling aspect of the unbridled Mexican/Central American illegal invasion and their PC wimp enablers, is that low-skilled Americans are increasingly being required to have Spanish fluency for entry-level jobs.

Cultural effects of illegal hispanic immigration are most noticeable, but there are many other immigrant groups degrading the quality of American life. The entire immigration system needs revamping, though it's probably too late. Unlike Europe, we at least still have plenty of open country and can flee the mess, to a degree.

===================================
American proponents of fascism are actually the Baby Boomers. Especially the upper 20% income brackets from suburbia. After 1968-1972 period they began to shed their "counter culture" outfits in favor of Wall Street suits and ties and went off to destroy the industrial capabilites of this nation.

Now that their post industrial utopia is collapsing they cannot think of anything else than to shift the planet to fascist regimes which will squeeze whole populations for that last margin of income.

Rid the world of baby boomerism and you rid the world of fascism.

last anon,

You certainly are thick. Why was it Dutch and British and German and Portuguese companies (heavily financed by the governments of those countries) who were sailing ships to China, and not vice versa? The Chinese after all were sending trading ships to the South Pacific and East Africa long before any Western European countries were sailing the seas. Isolationism by the heavily centralized Chinese government had a major effect on inhibiting Chinese exploration and trade. Deny it all you want, you are just limiting your understanding of things.

Actually it is illegal Tabasco, and I'll cite this article to prove it:

http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/15765337

"This walkout — which apparently was instigated by the United Food and Commercial Workers Union — is totally unjustified," Pittman said. "If Smithfield were to do what the union is calling for, we would be breaking federal law by knowingly employing undocumented workers. The union should stop trying to pressure Smithfield to break the law."

That law is against "hiring". An undocumented worker does not hire him or herself. They have done nothing illegal with regards to their employment. It is the employer who has.

Ok Tabasco, being that you want to split hairs. Being employed means you provide a SSN and pay taxes etc.

How do you do that when don't exist in this country?

Anonymous said...

Essentially what you proposing is that if we abandon FREE TRADE in favor of what you call isolationsim that we will end up a weaker of non existant nation. Your use of China is a poor example. China was not destroyed by isolationism but by Taoism which replaced the teaching of Confuscious who had discovered certain universal principles as the Europeans would do during the Council of Florence period. It is those principles which are then embedded into policy which decide the fate of nations and peoples. Not whether we get together and "trade things".

The US has become a degenerate cutlure and it's this current culture which is sure to destroy it. The nation state is an institution created to reflect the sovereign nature of man in the image of God.

What youre isolationist rant has to do with anything (except you must believe that trading is some magical end all solution?)is beyond me.

Again the only question today that means anything is whether there shall be sovereign nations or whther the private bankers and financiers will rule over nations and their people.

And please get a tissue and clean up after yourself.

Anonymous said...

Patch,

It may seem like splitting hairs, but its a very important distinction. It involves blaming the employers vs blaming the immigrants.

As far as paying taxes, yes they should be. Their employment is not the problem, though, it's their failure to pay taxes. Their being employed is still perfectly legal.

As far as going after them for not paying their taxes, there's a process in place for that, which would be for the IRS to go after them for tax evasion, just like anybody who does not report income. However, in order for the IRS to do that, they need to see proof of income, which would be hard to get if the employer is unwilling to document the income.

Once again, we're back to the employer.

You brought up an interesting buzz word Tabasco, that being the Cold War. Has anyone else spent in time in Germany? I was there during some of the Cold War years and the Germans used to hate the Turks for frequently being illegal aliens, that were putting a horrendous drain on their social service programs. Our benefits here are nothing compared to what the Germans were giving their citizens.

Tobasco - when you have extremely specialized skills and can do something NOBODY ELSE CAN DO, and go to a country to help them succeed and create jobs, then you're not stealing a job. Comprende?

When you break into the US, get a job as a roofer or plumber and work for 1/4 of what the now-unemployed US citizen roofer or plumber used to make, that's called stealing a job.

Anonymous said...

Keith,

Wow, quite the big head you have. You do a job nobody else in the world can do? Do you have some kind of super power? Are you the Green Lantern?

Labor is a marketed commodity, just like anything else. Choosing to work a job for less money than would be expected by your competition is not stealing, it is meeting demand at a lower price. And there is no law against accepting a job, so there is nothing illegal in undocumented immigrants doing so, therefore you implying that it is "stealing" is factually incorrect and really just an extension of your racist bias.

If somebody could do exactly what you could do for less cost, your employer would not hesitate in taking that option. There are, of course, inherant replacement costs. But trust me, you're not irreplaceable. The world's cemetaries are chock full of irreplaceable fellas, Keith.

blogger said...

tabasco - nobody can do what I do. Similar? Yes. Exactly? No.

Not a big head at all - I'm just hyper-specialized and nobody else does what I do or has accumulated the combination of experience and information that I have been lucky enough to accumulate.

Some skills are not (yet) commoditized. If you read Friedman, that's one thing you'll learn - do something, develop some skill, talent or information, that cannot be done or duplicated by someone for 1/10 of your cost in China or India.

The only way to survive in a global economy is to be specialized, be unique and do something that is defensible, in demand and non-duplicatable.

If you can't understand this concept, I can't help you. But I'd guess you have a job that will be outsourced soon or replaced by illegals, so good luck out there.

Every software programmer in the Silicon valley thought the same thing as you not 5 years ago.

I take it back, you're not the Green Lantern, you're Batman, huh? Were you trained in a secret mountain lair in Tibet?

FYI, I presently work in a position where my locality is a necessity, so at present there is no chance of my job being outsourced. But the world is a fast moving place, so I am nowhere as naive as you are and consequently do not think that I am by any means irreplaceable.

Honica must be having a bad day with the wife with all his rantings about other races. I think you mentioned once you had a jewish girlfriend who dumped you and now you rag on jews so maybe a mexican took your job cutting lawns so you rag on mexicans? Or maybe you saw a mexican in the shower and his testes were larger than yours?

America, England, Spain, all have growing economies due to immigrants, legal and illegal. Many countries have declining populations and need immigrants of any kind. Evolution is full of change, adaptation, migration.

Often when I think of New England I think, What country are they from? They seem so foreign to me out there in their anglo-villages and the way they treat outsiders as invaders (guess it is that subconcious link of what they did). Growing up in the western USA I find we are different, more open, more accepting, and really states filled with immigrants. Don't you think someone moving to California from NY isn't an immigrant? People migrate. Hispanic culture is as much a part of my American heritage as any other culture. I eat tacos, enchiladas, guacomole, we use spanish words daily in our lives, Sierra Nevada, California, etc, just as we adapt to other cultures, French, Irish, Swedish, Italian, Chinese, Japanese, etc. Think how boring life would be without these cultural imports.

Polarization occurs when there are two ethnic groups pitted against each other, white vs black, hispanic vs white, black vs hispanic. When no one group is dominate then a vibrant interaction occurs, like in large portions of NY city or California or other places that are diverse.

Diversity is creative, enriching. Adapt.

You could argue that honica jewinski is "unique". That has little to do with being necessary.

Besides the fact, as an objective observer, I would put you alot closer to the average construction worker than Kobe Bryant. I highly doubt if Kobe Bryant had a blog, he would be begging people to click through to his Google ads.

Get over yourself and your racial prejudices, and just admit that mexican immigrants are not "stealing" jobs, nor should they be punished for seeking employment anymore than you should. Your refusal to do so is just reinforcing the picture of yourself as an ignorant racist, and piling on top of that a picture of irrational egoism and perverse stubbornness.

If you want to talk about the immigration problem, stick to calling for accountability from employers who choose to give jobs to undocumented workers who do not pay taxes, something neither Republicans nor Democrats seem to want to do. Otherwise, you are just helping inflame the racial prejudices that exist in America now and are plenty bad enough without further inflammation. Take some responsibility.

Well Keith- Watch out for what you wish for. You just might get it. You wanted to throw the bums out at election time. Now you've got the Democrats in and their favorite word is Amnesty.

We're mortgaging the future and we need to fill those shoes - with more people. We're at 300M. China and India are each nearing 1.3B.

Your misdirected anger is really for Congress. Modern day "Ellis Island" facilities in CA, AZ, NM and TX would let us: 1) charge immigration tax (it was $8 in 1917); 2) reject criminals, the diseased; 3) give them social security numbers and applications for citizenship and a driver's license.

Arguably, putting downward pressure on unskilled labor with immigrants is better than letting those jobs go to other countries.

Want to make GM and Ford profitable? Lay off every union auto worker and let Mexicans, Central Americans, and South Americans do the work in our US plants. They couldn't possibly make worse cars than what rolls out of there now. Same could be said for airline mechanics, airline flight crews and baggage handlers.

The legal immigrant community provides santuary for their immediate family and neighbors, and the cycle repeats and repeats until majority demographic rejects immigration enforcement (for their own kind at least). So as these people enter law enforcement and government, it transforms the country and undermines democracy.

Immigration laws (i.e. deciding who comes in and under which circumstances) are set by our government which is installed by the legal citizens at the time of the law's passage. As LEGAL immigrants assimilate into the US, they can modify those laws as they see fit.

It goes against democracy to have a swarm of people enter the country illegally and therefore influence the government (just think of all those brazen public protests in the streets, for instance).

Although illegals can't vote directly, they may have relatives who do. Even non-Mexican politicians feel the need to pander to voters who are increasingly sympathetic to illegals.

So you wind up with a nation of selective enforcement. By whatever rationalization is applied, the mexicans "look after their own" to ensure an open border with Mexico, whereas other immigrants are still expected to jump through the normal hoops.

If can't see how anyone wouldn't see this as a recipe for disaster.
