Lessons I learned about Illegal immigration during my recent cruise

Your opinion might have some value if you actually cared about other people and the nation, and if you weren't such a xenophobe.

But, since you have no idea what you are talking about, and you are more scared of your own shadow than the future and others, and none of your thoughts are informed by facts of how this nation was founded. . . .

You can kindly go pound sand. My post had noting to do with illegal immigration or the illegal migrant problem. The folks I posted about follow the law.
Look Mr Emotion….please don’t act like you care about our nation…if you did you wouldn’t be so giddy about flooding it with bottom feeding thirdworlders.
I care about people but I care about my nation and its future first then the people of America second. You save the world bleeding heart globalist loons cant see past your nose….WAKE UP!

We have about 20 million illegals in the US, that is plenty.
 
I've seen estimates of 20 million between Mexifornia and Arizona alone. I wouldn't be surprised if the national figure is 40-50 million
The number of undocumented immigrants in the United States is roughly twice as high as commonly believed, according to new research from MIT Sloan and Yale professors.
 
emotionally charged and motivated to help the world fuck America.

How is allowing employers to extend work visas, when no one will take jobs, allowing the world to "fuck America?"

:dunno:

. . . and how is that "emotionally charged," and not a logical decision?

:dunno:
Again, you globalists can't see past your nose...It never ends there and you know it.
They run their baby factories and produce litters of taxpayer dependent children while working in America.
 
Unlike you, I don't guess just to indulge fears. Face it, you're stupid and dishonest.
I like to be reasonable and connect the dots.....the magic number has been 11 million for decades yet the Kenyan added 2.5 million, and while we see millions traverse our border every year on a north heading NOBODY has ever seen a single wetback traveling south across our border...Do the fucking math Humberto from Tijuana.
 
Shhhh. . .

In loser's world, there is no distinction between legal migrant, and illegal alien.

:auiqs.jpg:

And anyone that says differently. . . is a "globalist."

:rolleyes:
I make the distinction....Uncle Terry loves him some illegals whiles you are a proponent of foreign labor and the collateral damage that comes with it as you personally save the world and assist in the degradation of America under the guise of nobility.
 
Just got back yesterday from my first cruise. It was a five-day, four-night cruise out of Galveston with Cozumel as port of call. Great vacation, highly recommended.

Cruises are vacations in which a few thousand of travelers are served by a couple of hundred sailors and several hundred passenger facing crew members who work very hard to treat the travelers like kings. The crew members are housed in cramped quarters like sailors there and everywhere, and paid low-wages for long hours. They depend on tips to meet what is a near-universal goal among them: to send money home to their families.

My point?

It is easy to feel like an exploiter when being waited on hand-and-foot by these hard-working people, who are from countries like India, Peru and Kenya. Hard not to feel self-conscious about throwing away half of a buffet plate - or more correctly, leaving the half-eaten plate to be picked up by a person whose family may be experiencing real hunger (not "food insecurity). Hard not to wonder what the casino crew members think of all the cash Americans are willing to part with.

It is important to keep in mind that the reason those people are not able to simply work forty hours in their own country and support their families at home is that their countries are not enough like the United States. The less their economic systems resemble hours, the more poverty exists. American advocates of government regulation of business may not understand that, but illegal immigrants surely do.

The reason they can make money on a cruise ship is that the sea is the most libertarian part of the world, so their casino and bar jobs are not at risk of being banned by either religious conservatives or humanist social engineers, nor is the ship line is not required to pay them higher wages or provide health insurance.

If they were in the United States or if their country adopted the U.S. economic system, they could be land-based waiters, cooks, casino employees, retail sales people and most of the other jobs with cruise ship counterparts and they themselves would be able to afford an occasional cruise. So long as the cruise were crewed by people from other countries who had not adopted the U.S. system.

If all the nations of the world adopted our economic system, flawed though it certainly is, cruises would become much more expensive. People able to earn decent livings on land would demand the same on cruise ships. Bussers and hotel maids would still struggle economically, as would cruise ship stewards and table attendants. But, that is what provides the incentive for people to seek the education, training, and work records to move on up to higher paid jobs.

Anyway, my assumption was that the cruise line and/or the CBP required crew to stay on board to avoid their jumping ship and staying in the U.S. From what I now understand (and I could be wrong), they often sent crew members to the airport to fly them to a port where their next assignment wills start. But they don't seem interested in immigrating illegally, since they already have a job equivalent to a "job Americans won't do."

I'd like to see these hard-working people have a chance to live and work in the U.S. If I were benevolent dictator, I would decree that anyone who has worked ten cruises from a U.S. port can get a green card, so long as they agree to take no welfare. Then the next immigrant who applied for welfare could be told, "No need! A job just opened on the cruise ship Festivus. Bon Voyagee!"

How do you know they're illegals??? Many of those cruise line companies are not American registered ships; you realize that. right?
