Here is the US Government once again taking out a loan to pay for a Humongous bill that is going to require a long term commitment of money and resources that this country cannot afford.

The solution. I got a great idea. Why not enforce the FRICKIN bill already on the books instead of trying to LIE TO THE AMERICAN public and tell us we need a new bill to fix the old bill???

This congress is irrelevant. All they want to do is bash the war and pass two bills that this nation can’t afford. Energy bill and Immigration bill.

Ever noticed these bills always cost us money? Never make us money!

So with that in mind I recommend that we raise taxes across the board to pay for these boondoggles. I would suspect that if we started a national sales tax of 8 percent and we raised taxes by 10 trillion dollars over the next 10 years that ought to about cover the frenzied spending habits of a government gone haywire.

America is bankrupt. The only reason they want the immigration bill is because they are not fiscally responsible enough to balance the budget, raise taxes and begin paying down the debt.

Massive influxes of Immigrants PAY TAXES. Sales tax, Luxury tax, beer tax, cigarette tax, gasoline tax…etc…etc.

So let there be no mistake about this bill. The left is right about one thing. The survival of this country does depend on MASSIVE immigration. The problem? Not in the way they envision.

The Republicans do not need Hispanic votes. The Republicans need to find a way to remain relevent due to the huge demographic changes in the U.S. As the blacks and Hispanic populations grow relative to whites, the (some) Republican planners believes that they can gain enough Hispanic votes to remain relevent. However, almost every analysis has shown that that idea that is doomed to failure. The immigration bill is much more likely to make the Republican become irrelevent faster than in helping their political prospects.

mtjeffries,

Immigration is one of the causes of the nursing and healthcare shortage. There are 100,000′s of trained nurses who have quit the healthcare field due to the low pay, lousy working conditions, and lack of future prospects due to immigration. Middle class white women have no longer interested in working in healthcare if it means being exposed to the diversity of modern healthcare.
