Big Business wants cheap labor costs. Hillary Clinton wants more votes.

FMR. SENATOR RICK SANTORUM:

I just worry about doing what's best for America. And the America workers who have been really left behind by both political parties, but particularly by this administration. The wealth gap, as Bernie Sanders says, has risen. It's not like we've been passing a whole bunch of conservative policies here in the last six years.

I mean the bottom line is that these liberal policies end up helping those who have resources. But if you're an investor, if you're someone who's an owner, you've done very, very well under President Obama. If you're someone who's a worker, you've seen wages flat line. And so what does this president want to do, and even Bernie Sanders, they want to bring in more people to this country who are primarily unskilled and have them compete so we can keep those wages down. And for one reason the Democrats want to do that, because they believe it's politically good for them, and they can win more elections. That is not in the interest of the American public. And so--



CHUCK TODD:

You think that the Democrats are for more immigration simply for politics, for votes, they're looking for votes?

Since you take this stance of stupidity by party blindness.......What the fuck did Boosh do to stop corps from hiring illegals and even allowed Huckabee, gov. of Arkanass the ability to negotiate a contract with Mexico to lease a building for one dollar a year for a Mexican Consulate?

Both sides are being paid off so corporate America can pay us Chinese union wages and we are suppose to be happy with that...??

I believe the problem is simple ignorance of the law. We have a Commerce Clause. We should not be losing money on Commerce at our borders, but for infidels, protestants, and renegades to our Commerce Clause.

So....let me get this correct......Bush was asked how can we solve the illegal immigration problem....and he said simply "Enforce The Law"......and not everyone does. In fact......Democrats have been encouraging breaking the law to grab control of big states like California......and it's Bush's fault????

Obama refuses to enforce the law and still it's Bush's faith????

It is every presidents fault, along with Congress, for not enforcing the immigration laws and not stopping them from earning a living in this nation...

Enforce what law? We have a Commerce Clause, why are we losing money on Commerce at our borders?

Yes it is but Obama is carrying it a giant step forward by passing stays of deportation for millions of illegal aliens (along with work permits) by EO and without congress' approval. He owns this problem today.

yes he does and as expected he had his ass handed to him on his felonious EO...

Honesty dictates that it be said immigration is supported by both parties: one for votes, one for cheap labor.

 

[initforme]

Cheap labor = more profits which is what every ill begotten sleezeball corporation in this nation wants. They are anti education, anti worker, anti benefit, anti anything related to the middle and lower class so they have a big supply of workers who don't ask for a higher wage. That is what the US is all about. Ain't it great?

 

[charwin95]

Bush tried and pushed an immigration reform but his own republican congress abandoned him. Bush stopped from there at best he offered enforce the law. Obama has been pushing for reform and there's a current bipartisan bill stalled by republican. It's the reason why Obama keep saying pass a bill. Not perfect but he will sign it ( last SOTU ). Obama did not take no for answer. I blame republican congress then both presidents.
Also. We have been importing cheap labor through H1 program started by Bush replacing Americans. Now Mark Rubio wants to increase the quota ( see Mathew post Mark Rubio ) all because of cheaper labor to enrich fellow republicans.
