Here is our Secretary of Labor, with in interesting message for illegal immigrants:
So, Ms. Solis figures her job is to protect the rights of illegal immigrants in the American workplace. Let us consider how insane this is:
The Executive Branch of the US government – of which Ms. Solis is a part – has decided to unilaterally abrogate US law (that which prohibits the hiring of illegal immigrants) in favor of protecting via a different US law (that regarding fair labor and compensation) those who are outlaws under our system of government.
Not only is this insane, it is also quite tyrannical – it is the rule of men, destroying the rule of law. No matter how outraged we are at the way some employers ruthlessly exploit illegal labor, the the actual issue is the existence of said labor. Laws about wages and working conditions are not applicable to a person who, if US law is followed, will be deported as soon as discovered.
And the worst part of it is that they don’t even realize what they are doing. Very likely, Ms. Solis has just been instructed to pander for hispanic votes in front of the 2010 election (which may well turn on the California result – with a victorious Boxer providing the 50th vote to retain the Democrats Senate majority). But this how democracies perish – by political leaders setting aside on their own hook whatever laws don’t help them obtain and retain power.
We simply must get them out of office as swiftly as possible – the future of American liberty depends on it.
UPDATE: Thomas Sowell wonders if we are on the road to tyranny.
