Some Facts About Illegals in the U.S.
This is from an e-mail which was just too good to ignore. Lots of important info here. Things the “upper crust” with their “analysis” tend to gloss over with their “professional views”. This issue is one of many where the general public is being misguided by the so called “experts”.

Aren’t #1 and #8 the same?

I actually haven’t had time to check out all the links. But any way you slice it we’re talking about “billions and billions” as Carl Sagan would say.
I see our Presidential candidates McCain, Obama and Clinton all voted for it. That is why I believe an amnesty bill is coming either after the Nov. Election or after the New President is in office.
Immigration, legal or not, isn’t the solution. We need to reform how we fund our entitlements. Have a 3 to 1 worker to retiree ratio or better as a system of funding is rediculous. Each worker need to pay his own insurance premium and not have other workers paying for his benefit checks. It was supposed to be that way when FDR created it
quote:
At this time, I recommend the following types of legislation looking to economic security:
1. Unemployment compensation.
2. Old-age benefits, including compulsory and voluntary annuities.
3. Federal aid to dependent children through grants to States for the support of existing mothers’ pension systems and for services for the protection and care of homeless, neglected, dependent, and crippled children.
4. Additional Federal aid to State and local public-health agencies and the strengthening of the Federal Public Health Service. I am not at this time recommending the adoption of so-called “health insurance,” although groups representing the medical profession are cooperating with the Federal Government in the further study of the subject and definite progress is being made.
FDR Message to Congress on Social Security (1-17-1935)
That is what is needed now. Annuities where each worker has his own account and can pass what he has left in it to his children.
4% could give him as much as 12% does now in just Bonds with no stock funds. Then he could spend more and keep the economy going better. Even if you have him put 6% in, to pay for disability insurance, he is still ahead of the current system and the checks would be even bigger. Plus instead of only 32% of his wages counting, over $645 a month, toward his benefit check and only 15% above $3,653, all of his gains in the annuities would be his.
But, keeping the current system and including illegals? That just doesn’t make good sense. But, this is what we are headed for after the new President takes office.
Bill – I posted these the other day in another thread.

Since you are strong on our sovereignty and security, this article should sound some alarm bells on how this President has run the war on terror.

War On Terror: Two recently foiled terror plots trace back to Pakistan. The enemy is telegraphing a pattern we continue to ignore at our peril.
Investor’s Business Daily
Now, whether Ron Paul is right or not about blow back, we do have threats coming from al-Qaeda as does many naions.
By treating Pakistan as an ally, we have basically given free reign to al-Qaeda to regroup, train, get funding, etc. We said we would go into any nation harboring those who attacked us on 9-11 and yet, the very nation that is harboring them, has been left alone.
There are many who have opposed the Iraq war but have supported Afghanistan and even would like to see the U.S. go after the terrorists in Pakistan.
Iraq was about selling oil in euros, not terrorism. Iran is about selling oil in euros and yen, not nuclear weapons. Two nations that were economic threats have been targeted, one with war, one with rhetoric, sanctions and threats. One nation that actually is sending out terrorists to Europe and possible one day to us, is exempt.
This doesn’t mean I support ending a commitment we made in Iraq but, it does mean the reasons we made that commitment were misleading (real violations of the cease fire but, the dollar was the real reason for the timing) and the distraction from the real terrorists has been huge.
Sgt Mac
I guess I have huevos on my face over this.
quote from email alert:
Friends of ALIPAC,
Today we received word that the house passed an economic stimulus bill last night that would give checks to illegal aliens. Illegal aliens, termed ‘Resident Aliens” that have a taxpayer ID number would receive $300 if they just have the number but have not paid taxes with it and $600 checks if they have filed taxes under their ID number.
This bill passed the Congress by a large margin because they suspended the rules to prevent any amendments or changes to the bill. It is now headed to the Senate, where President Bush is pushing for rapid passage without changes.
=========================
I am warning you that this Congress isn’t going to give in on an amnesty plan or at least what many call an amnesty plan.
Jan,
Absolutely, amnesty will be back, and any of the three top elites, McCain, Obama, and Clinton, will sign it.
Quote:
WASHINGTON — The $146 billion stimulus package intended to jolt the economy by giving taxpayers rebates up to $1,200 includes cash returns for illegal immigrants who pay taxes.
Under the plan passed by the House, illegal immigrants who qualify as “resident aliens” and earned a minimum of $3,000 would be eligible for rebates of between $300-$600, FOX News has learned.
Only those illegals who have been assigned an Individual Tax Identification Number that allows them to file income taxes would be eligible. Resident aliens are defined as people who spend a “substantial” amount of time in the U.S. and have not been deported.
The provision has irked illegal immigration opponents, who say the assigning of TINs and collection of taxes from illegals sanctions their presence in the country.
Rep. Tom Tancredo, R-Colo., told FOX News that the bill will certainly stimulate “more illegal immigration.”

Here is a linked story on the benefit to illegals.
I would like to hear why Bart does think this is welfare?
John,
I was against the rebates from the outset, see previous thread. My opposition stems from those not evening supplying bate getting rebates, no matter nationality.
But if illegals are included in the rebates, then that must mean somebody has an address for them….and we have laws against entering the country without proper documentation…so let’s round ‘em up and ship ‘em out…workforce economy be damned!
I don’t think Wall St. and the Banks that run our government want them sent home.
Of course they have an address, and in the Denver area alone, 20,000 home were sold to them with nothing but a TID. The Banks and politicians aren’t going to want those homes sitting empty because the deported the owner at at time when have too many empty homes already.
However, they should be deport edif we are a nation of laws. Those that sold the homes to them should have to suffer. Yes, we will all suffer too. All home values will drop but, again, we never should have been in this condition to start with. However, sending them home will create labor shortages and cause wages to rise.
The downside to that? Simple, more businesses leave and we all suffer. However, with good tax reform along with deporting them, and you get higher wages, lower prices and more business returning here.
It would mean a recession for a while and all of the people suffering but, the long term benefits to the nation and the people would be huge. So why don’t we do it?
Simple because the voters when it comes time to “suck it up,” and have a recession, aren’t prepared for it. They have no savings to pay bills with for the few months or a year the recession would cause pain for.
It is easy to talk about reform and cutting spending but, our nation isn’t prepared for it nor are its voters, nor are its city governments nor are its state governments. They are all too deep in debt to stand the pain.
That is why I believe Congress if working so hard now to avoid a recession. It knows how weak this nation really is.
Looks like, right now, the Senate plans to get rid of the benefit to illegals in the stimulus package now in the Senate.
Hope it holds.
Bart
You are for tax payers paying for illegal immigrants?
Bill,
Your source (rense.com) also includes these gems:
Cancer is an infection caused by TB type bacteria

Question: What’s your definition of a NUTCASE, and why do you use one as a source?
Bill,
Just ignore David O’Rear re Rense.com. I really don’t know what David’s problem is. Rense.com has many great articles!
Davey
It’s just like anything else. You have to decide for yourself what’s legitimate and what isn’t. Just like with newspapers, magazines, TV, the internet, politicians and individual bloggers. It’s called free speech. I don’t normally post links to rense.com but if I didn’t want to “pick and choose” too much with this e-mail I received. That would have been sorta like censorship.
Willy,
Yes, I like The Onion, too. But, I’d never cite it as a serious source.
John,
What part of I was against the stimulus package from the beginning do you not get?
Also, Georgia’s 7 GOP reps voted against the bill…almost a 1/4 of those in opposition.
Where’s the love John…what about some praise for the G7 since you normally find fault with everything they do.
Bart
I did not know that but that was a good vote.
