Fighting The Root Cause Of Illegal Immigration

In response:  http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/08/08/immigration-reform_n_3727052.html?&ir=Latino%20Voices&utm_hp_ref=latino-voices

The root cause of illegal immigration is greed.  More specifically, the greed of the elite who profitize the undocumenteds' home-country poverty, undocumented labor and US citizen "border security" tax dollars.

Family separation is a one of the many insidious symptoms of illegal immigration.  This current push for reform would be another temporary fix to family separation of the current 11.2  million undocumented.  

My question is:  what about the next wave who will face these identical problems in the years to come?  What about the US taxpayers who will continue to suffer the costs of failed border security, over-crowded hospital emergency rooms, school rooms, job losses, and unfair demographic changes to their home town neighborhoods? 

The demonstrations making demands about a symptom of illegal immigration (as is the presence of the US undocumented) will further alienate US citizen taxpayers.  It is those taxpayers who suffer the symptoms of illegal immigration too.    

Yet it is these demonstrations that fit right into the elite's game plan:  divide, conquer, and keep people fighting about the symptoms rather than the cause.  Washington now has the undocumented and their supporters agreeing to 13 years of labor peonage for a chance at US citizenship.  What precedence will this set for Washington and the next push for "reform"?  Possibly 30 years of undocumented labor peonage and 100 billion dollars in taxpayers' expenses funneled to Washington's crony border security buddies' black hole?

I hope this reform is shot down because it will not fix illegal immigration.  In fact, it will promote it.   

Failure of reform could be the impetus for people on both sides to unite and attack the root cause of illegal immigration:  the greed of the elite. 

For instance, would the Mexican undocumented (62% of US undocumented) come or stay in the US if they could make a similar living wage working with their families in Mexico?  Are you actually naïve enough to believe that the corrupt Mexican government could not be economically sanctioned into doing so? 

This could be done.  It would take US citizens and reform supporters to stand up to Washington (or better said stand up to the US elite who profit from their system of illegal immigration for profit).

Americans and Illegal Immigration: The Hell With The Message, "Shoot" The Messengers

In response:  http://www.theguardian.com/world/2013/aug/08/dream-nine-immigration-activists-freed?commentpage=1

Our own US government's complicity in the issue of illegal immigration is so much more insidious than most Americans ever take the time to realize.

Do you have a clue as to how many fraudulent 1986 Amnesty application were "rubber stamped" through by the Reagan administration? 
http://www.nytimes.com/2006/05/23/washington/23amnesty.html?pagewanted=all&_r=0

It was more important for Reagan to appear successful than to tell the truth.

Do you folks know that NAFTA pushed more undocumented into the US than ever before?

Do you have any idea of the powerful economic bond the US has with Mexico?

Do you have any idea of how not only Washington, but Harvard University, pampers ex-Mexican "100,000 Drug War Dead" President Felipe Calderon?

With all of this said,  what is the typical American exceptionalists' reaction to illegal immigration?    The hell with the message -"shoot" the messengers!

Connect the dots folks.  US immigration "reform" boils down to the use and abuse of the undocumented for cheap labor, and the use and abuse of you and your tax dollars to fatten Washington's crony "border security" buddies' retirement accounts.

We need to force these self-serving Washington politicians to force the corrupt Mexican government to take care of it own citizens.  When we do that, 62% of our undocumented population would disappear.

Finally I dare you to entertain the idea that the US illegal immigration and drug war for profit systems are but a microcosms of what is happening globally.

The Biggest Illegal Immigration for Profit Offenders: The US and Mexican Elite

In response:  http://www.commondreams.org/view/2013/08/07-0

I think the people who suffer most from not only Washington's but Washington's crony  immigration for profit friends and industries are US taxpayers and the Mexican undocumented.

Of course the propagandists who hold this immigration status quo in place rely upon these two groups being at odds with each other.  This despite the fact that both groups are victimized for immigration profit:  one for labor and the other for tax dollars used to support the continuation of the first group (despite all Washington's border security hype).

The biggest offenders are the Mexican and US elite.  We should unite and peacefully shut down their 1.25 billion a day in cross border trade for as long as it takes to for these two self-serving governments to stop abusing each other's citizens.

The US could solve 62% of its undocumented population problem if the corrupt Mexican government took care of its own people.

What Next? Chapo Guzman At Harvard?

In response:  http://www.forbes.com/sites/doliaestevez/2013/08/06/do-you-really-need-a-college-degree-to-study-at-a-harvard-graduate-school/

Americans should be outraged about this disgusting Harvard cronyism with ex Mexican Drug War/NAFTA/US puppet president Felipe Calderon.

Nowhere is the blatantly insidious connection of the bi-national elite more obvious than this Bill Clinton supported, Harvard selected First Angelopoulos Global Leader Award and Fellowship Award to ex Mexican President Felipe "100,000 Drug War Dead" Calderon.
   
The bi-national elite profit from Mexican drugs, Mexican illegal immigration, Mexican labor, Mexican remittances,  the Mexican Drug War, American guns, American Amnesties, American Taxpayer funded Border Militarization, American medical and educational costs for the Mexican undocumented, American investments and American pushed NAFTA which put many Americans out of work while pushing more Mexican undocumented into the US than at any other time in our country's history.

Do you suppose Harvard University is in favor of Pena Nieto continuing Calderon's failed US backed Drug War and Washington's current push to "reform" immigration?  What a deal!  The Mexican undocumented who make up 62% of the US undocumented will "get" a shot at US citizenship in exchange for 13 years of labor peonage.  Meanwhile, US taxpayers will be soaked another 38 billion to be added to Washington's crony "border security" buddies retirement plans.

Does this even remotely remind you of the US War on Drugs that has been dragging on for over years?  

The next thing you know Calderon will get Harvard to sign up Chapo Guzman for the Mason program.

And by the way, our appeal petition to Harvard to oust Calderon is still alive and kicking.

So This Is All Americans Are Clueless About With Immigration?

In response:  http://www.businessinsider.com/poll-immigration-americans-wrong-increasing-decreasing-unauthorized-2013-8?pundits_only=0&comments_page=1#comment-52015cf7ecad040944000011

Speaking as a retired US Border Patrol Agent, I would agree that most Americans are clueless about immigration.   I find it ironic that this article focuses only upon the writer's claim that two out of there respondents did not know that the number of undocumented decreased from 12 million in 2007 to the 11.2 million that it is today when there are many other more substantive immigration facts that Americans are clueless about.

For instance, how much has our number of undocumented increased or decreased since Reagan's Amnesty of 1986?  Do you know that Reagan's Amnesty was touted to voters as the cure to illegal immigration?  What result did Clinton's NAFTA have upon illegal immigration to the US i.e. did it stop illegal immigration as promised or increase the number to the highest level ever?  What country is our second largest source of oil?   Since 2006 what country has used its own military to fight a US backed drug war that has left over 100,000 people dead?  From what country does 62% of our US undocumented come from?  What country do we share 1.25 billion dollars a day in mutual trade with?

Immigration reform is much more complicated than meets the eye.  Yet the bottom line is the US and the undocumenteds' home country elite simultaneously profiting off of labor and border security.  The current legislation in Washington takes 11.2 million undocumented and gives them a shot at US citizenship for 13 years of labor peonage.  Those same 11.2 million will keep sending remittances back home no matter what this reform outcome is.  Meanwhile US taxpayers will get soaked for 38 billion more going to Washington's crony "border security" industries, not to mention having to deal with the over-crowded hospital emergency rooms, losses of jobs, and unwelcomed demographic changes to their small town neighborhoods.

Of course big business wants immigration reform because it will profit off of cheap labor. Yet their polls won't cover the real costs and consequences American taxpayers have been suffering (and will continue to suffer) because of Washington's decades-long failed immigration for profit agendas.

Senator John McCain's Two Ugly Faces of Illegal Immigration

In response: http://www.npr.org/blogs/itsallpolitics/2013/08/05/209187421/how-john-mccain-got-his-groove-back?uidt=1375798361#commentBlock

As a retired US Border Patrol Agent and someone who seriously follows the politics of illegal immigration, no one better displays the insidious nature of the abuse for profit of the undocumented and US taxpayers than John McCain. 

On one hand McCain supports Arizona's Operation Streamline which partners up with ALEC and the Corrections Corporation of America to daily ramrod groups of undocumented people through US District Courts and Immigration prisons in herds of 80+ people at a time.  All court, law enforcement, and prisons tabs ($119 per person per day to the CCA) of course are born by US taxpayers.

http://www.dallasobserver.com/2010-10-21/news/operation-streamline-costs-taxpayers-millions-tramples-on-the-constitution-treats-immigrants-like-cattle-and-doesn-t-work-so-why-are-the-feds-so-committed-to-it/

On the other McCain and his "Gang of 8" are pushing for immigration "reform" which offers 11.2 million undocumented a change a citizenship in exchange for 13 years of labor peonage.  US taxpayers will be soaked for some 38 billion more in crony "border security" tax dollars while continuing to suffer the consequences of over-crowded hospital emergency rooms, losses of jobs, and unwelcomed/unfair demographic changes to their hometown neighborhoods.

The "fight" for and against Illegal immigration has become another highly profitable industry maker for US contractors and their supporting politicians.  This is very similar to Washington's 40 + year long war on drugs.

As far as I am concerned John McCain's war hero status has been desecrated by his politics as noted above.

"Do The Right Thing" - Take Politics Out Of Immigration Reform?

In response:  http://www.politico.com/blogs/politico-live/2013/08/ryan-gop-should-not-approach-immigration-based-on-169889.html?hp=r7

"Do The Right Thing" -  Take Politics Out Of Immigration Reform?

How can any of these self-serving, profiteering politicians keep a straight face when they parrot the adage "we must do the right thing" and take politics out of immigration reform?

ROFLMAO! Immigration always is, always has been, and always will be about politics and money.  Or more precisely, it is about labor, profit, and power insidiously and simultaneously pandered to by the elite while said elite passes all costs and consequences on to average US taxpayers.

You Washingtonian clowns are tying to capitalize upon the Latino vote while throwing average US taxpayers under your "doing the right thing" immigration bus. 

Yes Pogo, we have met the enemy, and it is these double-talking puppets of the rich and the ignorant American voters who believe in them.

Just educate yourselves about NAFTA and what it did to not only the US commoners, but the Mexican commoners too. 
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/ellen-r-shaffer/immigration-is-a-nafta-pr_b_642484.html

This 2013 attempt at immigration reform will continue and increase NAFTA's disastrous results upon the US and Mexican working classes.

And if you really want to understand what is happening globally, read this article.
http://www.aljazeera.com/indepth/opinion/2013/07/201372142250284963.html

We are being used and abused here, just like the undocumented are. 

I wish American voters were as clear as the undocumented are about what is taking place to them.
