Why does he not talk about High tech IT jobs in millions outsourced to India. L1 and B1 visa misused for cheap labor and to facilitate outsourcing.

Why not tax out sourced service as tarrif. I know the facts I am an Immigrant from India who came here 20yrs ago to go to college and got a Masters in Computer Science.

There is enough H1B visas for entrepreneurs 65,000 a year. He and his cronies basically want these services available to them at minimum wages like things made in China. So they can make more money for them self. The H1 Cap is reached in Jan because of misuse by Indian IT body shops which provide major corporations cheap IT labor.

“Washington will never even think to ask what the political implications might be of a Latino majority with a racial chip on its shoulder. There is no way to think about that in dollars.

To the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, the racialized surge across our southern border is economic growth; to business, race warriors are consumers. And if Viacom owns a Spanish-language radio station through which gringo-hating on-air hosts attract large followings by actively sabotaging immigration enforcement efforts and fanning racial hatreds, Viacom will call it a successful format and tout to investors plans to increase its holdings in this profitable and fast-growing market segment.

Only the willfully blind or exceedingly stupid could fail now to see that the decisions we make today about immigration may either be pulling us back from the brink or sending us hurtling down the precipice toward unknown horrors and more deaths for young soldiers.

Nevertheless, the U.S. Chamber of Commerce will spend millions again this year injecting business into the politics of immigration. The American Immigration Lawyers Association will write draft legislation that legislates fees to its members and opens the gates wider to its customers. Senators Hagel, Martinez, McCain, Kennedy, Specter, and Craig will introduce the legislation, telling Americans the economy would collapse without mass immigration, and a brain-dead and lazy media will not bother to read the legislation, but will simply repeat the lie as if, even were it true, it mattered.

It's the very essence of corruption

What do you do to stop the sinking of the Titanic? Stop the water from pouring in! What do you do to keep a failing hot air balloon aloft? Patch the hole! What do you do to avoid a head-on accident? Turn sharply in another direction! How do you stop from catching tuberculosis? Keep people with tuberculosis out of your house and schools!

“Let’s shut down America’s borders. Let’s stop all immigration. Let’s give ourselves a break. Let’s take a moratorium. Our citizens deserve it. There is no immigration allowed in China, India, Bangladesh, Russia, Japan, Cuba, Saudi Arabia, Iran, Syria, Turkey, Israel and MOST other countries. Are they suffering race riots, car burnings, language crisis and other problems from immigration? Nope!”

But the fact is, we are and so are other First World countries. It’s time to shut down our borders and take care of our own people, our own country and our own future” And bring our troops home from Afghanistan and place them on our borders in support of the border patrol.

A Black American’s perspective:

Racial profiling?

This must be done now to save our lives. American Blacks have lived in the U.S, for centuries and have proven their loyalty. There is no mother country for them to go to.

Remember, all terrorists so far are Middle Eastern descent, distinctly Arab. One exception, Richard Reeves. They are crossing our border with the Mexicans, speaking Spanish and blending in. Many may be sleeper cells, waiting for the word

Dangerously, we have in our midst, representatives of nearly every race on the planet and we have no real idea of where their sympathies and loyalties lie. Many may be al qaeda sleeper cells waiting for the word to kill us by any means necessary.

Black African ‘brothers’ from the ‘mother-land’? Forget it, they don’t even like us. The Black American population has dwindled by 10 million over the past 30 years. More black fetus’ are aborted than are born. But, Hispanic women drop one every year-At government expense. More and more Black boys are killed every day.

“people around the world are oppressed not only by force of arms, but the denial of accurate information by the government and the press. A people kept ignorant can be manipulated into political acquiescence” Dr Manning Marable. The corporate owned press and the government keeps us ignorant with misinformation and disinformation.

What is your opinion?

What a crock. Bloomburg, along with most elected officials, are completely out of touch with the reality of being an American. This lie that our country needs skilled foreign immigrants is ludicrous and a contrived plan for cheaper labor. It is disgusting that corporations and the government they manage has turned their backs on hard working American workers that made them successful. It is all about greed and power. I listened to his speech, and when he mentioned the empty homes that Americans have lost to due to lies and corruption, I expected he would say they could be purchased cheaply by our government (taxpayer dollars) and given to these proposed skilled immigrants so they would come here and save America. When they say that is how America was made, I guess they forgot that things have changed since this country was founded. Now it has been turned into a sewer, just like the rest of the world. America has been sold out at the very highest level and it amounts to outright treason. They have no morals or a backbone.
