Feinstein, 1993, "America can't be the Welfare System for Mexico"


Yes, FEINSTEIN said this.

Note Janet Reno in the background.

It's sad how the Democrats have turned against US citizens, helping employers push down US wages with 20 million illegal immigrants.

All in such a short span, now they are all going to get the boot by Mexicans.

And the SEIU, which pushed AB 450 and associated bills very hard.

Amazing. The left has done a 180 on all of this. Snakes.

Remember when Janet Reno snatched that wetback out of his Closet and Fed-Ex'd his ass back to Cuba?

What are they fighting for?
Pure GDP growth?
Pure supply chain efficiency for the sake of efficiency?
The wealth of a few plutocrats?
The fortunes of multinationals?

Surely a bit less of the above is compatible with a larger share for the average American.

Does everyone here realize that these are politicians?
Whatever is expedient!

My politician is better than your politician.

Even if there were 12 million illegals that's not even close to 20 million.
Were does the 20 million figure come from?

Not to mention a real step towards making America great again.

If the democrats are so bad on illegal Immigration then why did the number of illegal immigrants go down between 2009 and 2015?

Also, only half of the illegal immigrants are from Mexico. How is a wall going to stop the other half that doesn't come from Mexico?

Half is better than nothing.

Exactly what I was thinking, or counted by WaPo or NYT.

The statistics come from Pew research center. I know it's hard to believe Obama was tough on illegal Immigration. It is the reality that people don't want to give him credit for. I'd bet that every illegal Obama deported cost half as much as the ones Trump is deporting

Nope Pew research center. Here is the link again.

Actually says it in the link. I guess when people are lied to constantly by their politicians they start to believe the lies.

It did, where did that come from?

Indeed, U.S. Border Patrol Local 2544 stated in July of 2005:
“There are currently 15 to 20 million illegal aliens in this country by many estimates, but the real numbers could be much higher and the numbers increase every day because our borders are not secure (no matter what the politicians tell you—don’t believe them for a second).

Nancy Boulton observes that:
Estimates of the size of the illegal alien population currently living in the U.S. range from about 12 million to over 20 million. The lower number is based on Census Bureau estimates of the foreign-born population in various Census Bureau surveys. The larger number is based on methodology that is not reliant on a respondent’s candor... it is virtually impossible to get an accurate count of populations who are resistant to being identified. Given the problem of porous borders and incentives to avoid detection, the higher estimate is not unreasonable.

Alternative methodologies
Alternative methodologies conclude that between 20 million and 40 million illegal aliens have evaded apprehension and live in the United States.

If even one person is successful for every apprehension, it implies over 1 million foreigners per year illegally cross our southern border. In addition, there are roughly 30 million foreign nationals admitted to the U.S. each year on temporary visas.

12 year old quote from a union who is reliant on the highest count possible for more jobs.

Folks you just can't make this shit up

Remember when Republicans fought for American workies?

Neither do I

RafiMaas says

12 year old quote from a union who is reliant on the highest count possible for more jobs.

So, in 12 years you think the counts have gone DOWN??

Yes, we can't believe the guys actually stationed on the border who sees the crap every day. We should believe politicians instead, right?

But we should believe Pew, who titles the article "5 FACTS about illegal immigration in the U.S.", (and leans left in their politics).

They claim the article is FACTS, but then uses the term "ESTIMATES" 600 times in the article. Yep, makes perfect sense.

RafiMaas says

Nope you can't, Liberal Logic totally on display here.

Democrats only support two things... welfare and fags. That’s all they got.
