Theft By Deception: The Immigration Con Game
How politicians are robbing citizens of access to the American Dream.

A pattern of criminality has been in progress for decades with more Americans falling victim to this crime each day. The crime is “theft by deception.” Because of this, millions of Americans are losing their thin sliver of the American Dream, their security and their peace of mind
In order to understand the crime we first need to know and understand the elements of the crime.
To provide a starting point and specific language, we will use the definition of “theft by deception” as defined in one state in particular: Georgia. However, this crime, of using deception to steal, is codified in virtually every state and city. This crime is defined in the
Georgia Code, in part, as:
a) A person commits the offense of theft by deception when he obtains property by any deceitful means or artful practice with the intention of depriving the owner of the property.
(b) A person deceives if he intentionally:
(1) Creates or confirms another's impression of an existing fact or past event which is false and which the accused knows or believes to be false;
(2) Fails to correct a false impression of an existing fact or past event which he has previously created or confirmed;
(3) Prevents another from acquiring information pertinent to the disposition of the property involved
Today politicians from both political parties, echoing the claims of many special interest groups that provide massive campaign contributions, use deceptive language to achieve their (criminal) goals. As you will see, the claims they make about immigration are without merit and are deceptive and seek to satisfy their campaign contributors.
The perpetrators are our elected politicians from both the “Repugnantcan” and “Demoncrat” parties.
Many politicians have insisted that aliens do the work Americans are either too lazy or too dumb to do. Politicians also have repeatedly claimed that upon graduation from colleges, foreign students in the U.S. should have “Green Cards stapled onto their diplomas,” purportedly to keep these foreign students from returning to their home countries half-way around the world and competing with American companies.
Here's a far better solution:
Educate American kids who are likely to not go half-way around the world after graduation but no farther than half-way across town.
Today there are more than 1.1 million foreign students studying in the United States. They are attending more than 9,000 schools and, because there is an abject shortage of ICE agents to conduct field investigations, there is no way to know if many of these schools even exist. In some instances the schools are nothing more than “mills” that, given the authority to petition for foreign students, simply pocket the “tuition” paid by “students” who never study anything in the United States.

In December 2011 “Dan Rather Reports” aired a disconcerting hour-long report on how highly educated and experienced American computer programmers are being replaced by programmers from India. The report was titled:“
Rather Reports: No thanks for everything” and featured interviews with computer programmers who had been working for years in the industry and had exceptional qualifications. They were displaced by foreign workers.
On May 15, 2007 a four minute
infuriating video was aired on "Lou Dobbs Tonight" on CNN. It featured an immigration lawyers' conference in which lawyers were being coached to
"not find qualified U.S. workers." The lecturer is identified in the video as being Lawrence M. Lebowitz, the Vice President of Marketing for the firm of Cohen & Grigsby.
On June 9, 2015 the Daily Caller reported,
"Disney Blacklisted Displaced American Workers." Apparently it was not enough for the managers at Disney to fire American workers and demand that they train their replacements if they wanted their severance packages -- they also allegedly took steps to make certain that these newly laid off workers would not be able to find new jobs.
On June 3, 2015 the New York Times published a report
"Pink Slips at Disney. But First, Training Foreign Replacements" that summed up the situation at Disney World.
On February 20, 2015 the newspaper, San Gabriel Valley Tribune, reported,
"Edison under fire over plan to replace employees with foreign workers."
These two employers represent the tip of a humongous iceberg. There are many, many more companies that are employing the very same tactics.
UC Davis Health System provides health advice. It has posted a section on the issue of
"Coping with the Stress of Layoff and Unemployment" that begins with the following:
