Provide Social programms without first weeding out illegal aliens, penelize both my wife's and my businesses with additional taxes, and not protect the Country I love.
This sounds interesting, so I'm going to jump in here if you don't mind. It's gonna be long.
FIRST: The illegal aliens aren't going anywhere. As much as I would LOVE to round up 20 million illegals that are driving down wages for everyone, they will never be deported. Half of them already have kids who like it or not, are American citizens. You can't deport Americans.
There's a whole gaggle of illegals two houses down from me. They rent the house and about 12 of them live there. I'm positive they're illegal. The men are all day laborers, each has a white van. The women either raise the kids or I think go out as maids. But they have kids. There's about 6 between the families.
Now the parents barely speak english. I speak spanish better than they speek english, and all I know is 'Donde esta la cervesa.' But the kids, oldest are 6-7, they're American, and they speak english. Spanish too of course, but english. And they come talk to me when I walk by with our Chihuahua. They love the perito. They go to the school that my tax dollars pay for, but they're learning english and acclimating. My father in law is Mexican ethnically. Born in Chicago, you'd think he was Italian if you spoke to him, completely acclimated, no accent at all - whitebread America.
You can't move that family. You can't, not now. It's an American family now. You have to accept the fact that corporate greed kept them their for they're low wages, and openly exploited them. They work for peanuts and get shit on so that fat white guys could get richer. And that's the truth.
SECOND: You must accept that you're going to pay anyway. If businesses are going to continue to exploit them and not pay a living wage, then they have to support their workers through higher taxes.
If you hire a day laborrer to save $10 an hour, all you did was postpone when you have to pay the rest. If that worker gets hurt, he goes to the emergency room, and you pay for it. If he gets sick, he goes to the emergency room, and you pay.
If he can't get well and can't work, then American children become homeless. Unless you're willing to watch them starve to death and die on the street, someone has to feed them and house them and nurse the father back to health so he can work again. That's the only way you keep America from becomming a 3rd world shithole.
So I'm sorry that you don't want to pay higher taxes, but I don't want to live in a shithole. I don't like mowing my lawn and painting the shutters either, but if I didn't my house would look like a shithole, and I don't want to live like that, and it's not fair to my neighbors.
If the people of this nation insist on keeping an underclass of illegals in this country for their cheap labor, then we have to pay for their upkeep. You do have to feed the peasants. You do realize that, correct?
You're not being penalized with higher taxes. You're paying the wages that you thought you could get away with not paying. But it's caught up to you.
The grass is about a foot high. Time to mow the lawn or live in a shithole.
I'm going out to mow the lawn.
