The
Dr. Mabuse of Illinois by Paul Sand In 1996 Mr. Durbin, still in the House of Representatives, voted in favor
for "chain migration" with the Chrysler-Berman Amendment to
H.R.2202. "Chain migration" is where the immigrants can send
for their adult relatives, and then these adult relatives send for theirs
and -- so -- on. This results in job shortages, lower wages for lower-paid
Americans like after school help, summer help, part time soccer mothers,
et cetera... Most of those bills which gave some meager protection for the American
workers failed, viz, were voted down. Even now with twelve million unemployed Americans Senator Durbin is not finished with his treacherous plans. All of those foreign workers allowed into the country because of him and his underworld gangsters still reside in the U.S.! He stubbornly refuses to propose any bill or amendment to deport them back to their own country so as to reduce America's crippling unemployment crises. |

Jobless
in the USA - By Paul Craig Roberts -
(KPS reports) By locating in China, the firm substitutes a work force that is paid less than a dollar an hour for U.S. labor that costs $26 an hour. By locating in China, the firm also avoids expensive regulations, torts, employment taxes, and discrimination lawsuits. |
Mexican
Migrant Pipeline: Stealing American's Jobs Five workers who came from the Rio Grande Valley to the meatpacking plant here were treated like tourists. They rode in an air-conditioned bus, watching movies, eating chips and drinking Cokes. They stayed for free at a local motel until they found housing. And they bought food at the plant cafeteria with cash cards. All of this was supplied by their new employer, Tyson Fresh Meats. - (Rick Dean) - (Invasion) |

Seabiscuit for a rabbit - by Patrick J. Buchanan - © 2003 Creators
Syndicate, Inc. "Democrats have lately begun to notice that under President Bush, one in every seven U.S. manufacturing jobs has vanished. U.S. manufacturing jobs have been disappearing at the rate of 75,000 a month for 34 months. U.S. workers in manufacturing are now fewer in number than in the 1950s and the smallest share of the labor force since the early 1800s. Why? Simple. As we import the products of foreign factories in record volume, we close our own factories and ship our jobs, our technology and our future abroad. In May, the U.S. trade deficit in goods was running at the astronomical rate of $562 billion a year. Because of that deficit, since Bush took office, the dollar has lost one-fourth of its value against the euro." - (link from RR) |

Employment Picture Still Gloomy |
Abracadabra - "WHEN I WAS BORN, AMERICA WAS THE STRONGEST nation on earth. Americans were proud of who they were, at times even arrogant about it. Well, nobody's perfect. America's schools were as good or better than schools anywhere on earth. Our productivity was the highest, and the term Yankee Ingenuity was used in all seriousness. We were creative, and had the inventions to prove it. We built cars, hi-fi's, televisions, radios, motorcycles, and just about anything else you could think of, and we built them all with quality..." - (KPS reports) - (American Worker) |
