That sure is a dog of an immigration bill, isn’t it? I mean, if we really want to call it that. Its also got $60 billion for Ukraine, $14 billion for Israel in her hour of need…and $10 billion for the Palestinians so they can pay more people to murder Jews. Insane doesn’t really begin to cover this.
I mean, this thing is just horrible. And the talking points they’re using show that either they’re stupid or think you are. Just one for-instance, they’re saying “at 5,000 crossing in a day, the border automatically closes!”. As if 5,000 is ok…and as if there’s some magic counter along the border which trips at 5,000 and seals the border. Rather than as it actually is – Team Pudding Brain gets to decide if 5,000 or more have crossed and they get to decide if they’ll issue an order to close the border. Oh, and if you want to sue them about it, all cases will head to the Democrat-dominated DC federal court to make certain your case has no chance. And GOPers are saying this is the compromise position! Geesh – what was it to begin with? 10,000 a day and a free foot massage? There is not one aspect of this bill that actually secures the border but provision after provision ratifies the last 3 years and locks it in place until 2029 to tie Trump’s hands should he win in November.
This is our Ruling Class spitting on us.
My view is that we don’t need any immigrants. Our population is more than large enough that we can find people to take care of every task we have – yes, including picking our crops if they’re just paid an American wage rather than slave wages of which a portion is kicked back to the Cartels. But supposing you can make the argument that a certain level of immigration is acceptable and beneficial. Fine. But that’s easy: we set the criteria for immigrating (including the criteria for asylum seekers) and anyone who presents themselves at a legal point of entry is judged by the pre-set criteria. If you fit the bill, welcome! If you don’t, back you go.
But if you cross illegally then I don’t care if your oppressors are waiting for you on the other side of the border…back you go. We have ports of entry all along the border. There are US embassies and consulates all over the world. There is every opportunity to avail yourself of legal entry. If you are illegally crossing then you are, point blank, not an asylum seeker nor an immigrant…you are a criminal up to no good, or the victim of criminals up to no good. In neither case can I afford to let you in.
What we have now is complex, clunky and really outside of any one person’s control because that is what the Ruling Class wants. For two reasons:
- They’re making bank off it. Rely on it, the Cartels are shoveling money at people in the US government and NGO’s to keep things going.
- The Ruling Class hates us.
The second point is actually more important than the first. Run of the mill corruption can get very bad and cause all sorts of trouble, but you can also stop it very quickly. As soon as you are willing – like Bukele was in El Salvador – you just take or kill all the criminals. It really isn’t at all difficult; we’re not dealing with smart people. Criminals are monumentally stupid. If they weren’t stupid, they wouldn’t be criminals. Rounding them up and jailing them…or even having a series of terrible and unexplained accidents with them…is easy. Just takes the will to do it. But when your Ruling Class hates you, that becomes a problem.
When your boss hates you, he’s going to do everything he can to thwart you and if a combination of bribes and threats can no longer keep you in line, he’s going to get rid of you. Since before WWII – but massively accelerated after it – our Ruling Class has done everything it could to make certain the people don’t rule. Lies, bribes, conflict (foreign and domestic) have been used to keep us bewildered but mostly calm – the bribes were the big part of it. Welfare! Social Security! Medicare! They were stealing our money via inflation but until the 1970’s only a very little at a time. But that part of it couldn’t keep going – because when you keep giving out goodies financed by stealing the money of the recipients, you eventually provoke a financial crisis. The one that started in the 70’s and has really never ended, just masked by money printing at an ever more furious rate since then. Even the prosperity of the 80’s and 90’s was built on a house of (fake) cards. What the deepening financial crisis means, though, is that after a while the people you’re bribing start to lose fast enough to notice.
That really started after the 2008 financial crisis with only the briefest interruption under Trump. More and more inflation, fewer and fewer jobs…and more and more immigrants. To replace those who were being screwed. It works because while what is bad for you, an American, is a dream come true for the Indian.
Now, they’re going to screw the Indian guy, too…but they hope that he’ll vote Democrat long enough to see us into the hereafter. The most important thing is to get rid of us…with our silly notions about God and family and owning property and Rule of Law and having rights and all that drivel. That is what they’re trying to burn out of America…by teaching the kiddies that it’s all racist and importing enough people to outvote the adults who know better.
It is us or them, guys. Either we get rid of the whole Ruling Class – especially the GOP part of it – or they’ll get rid of us. And I mean we’ve got to want these people in jail. At a minimum. It isn’t enough to outvote them…we’ve got to uproot them. Take their money, take their positions, take their freedom.
Or they’ll take all ours.
