I thought Eastern Europeans used to wish China would invade their home territories...... because they'd have to come conquering through Russia first to get there?
Lame duck here is referring to an elected official who is approaching the end of his or her tenure. He is not the law maker here (that's Congress's job) nor emperor. His primary job is to protect this country and to execute and enforce the laws made by our representatives in Congress. I will agree with you about his intelligence. He is smarter than me for sure, and a better bloviator too.
Im hoping you are wrong on this. That's not who the Citizens of the USA are.
President Obama is presently bloviating in a speech addressing his actions here. I wish the president would admit Harry Reid has stopped bills on reforming immigration and really enforcing the law a reality.
I'm not totally disagreeing with you on this. But, illegal labor, as I mentioned in a previous post, is not used here to produce the cheaper corn, as their labor is used in less mechanized agri business does. Competition is competition.
If president Obama wanted to do something that really helps Mexicans here and at home, he would stop the subsidies. Right now he is simply using the illegal immigration issue selfishly to keep his lame-duck self in the spotlight.
Mexico has been the number 2 importer of USA corn, just behind Japan. They bought over 1.5 million tons of it ex. in 2012. And that's not used as chicken feed.
Hey, epirb. I agree with a lot of what you present here and I thought amnesty was an answer at one time. After all, a lot of the illegal Mexicans here have been and are victimized by both of our governments.
I believe it is true that the mega-farms here can produce and sell yellow corn there far cheaper than Mexicans can grow and market their own corn there.
However, these U.S. mega-farms are heavily mechanized as compare to some agri businesses which are heavily infiltrated with illegal immigrants to make production less expensive.
More importantly, why has he waited this long to Do anything and put another burden on American tax payers? And why don't we let everyone from everywhere silently invade us like the Mexicans do by the millions, or billions. Heck yes, let them all also weaken our infrastructure and work here and send there money to where they came from.
Regardless, the presidents TelePrompter was working well last night and his speech writer obviously has studied cultural propagandist Dr. Joseph Goebbels well.
Everyone in the poor and middle classes in Africa, China, India and Russia junked their cars and now drive motorcycles or ride around on their asses instead?
Yep, old toothless Charlie Manson is going to spawn another revolution. Since there's not going to be any honeymoon (and no Charlie Manson II) there's no money in it for Star if she repeats the Manson murders.
