The Morning Rant: Minimalist Edition
Now, a group of GOP donors are beginning to also smell squishiness, and are pressing Republicans to reach a “deal “with Democrats on illegal immigration, specifically, granting permanent legal immigration status to so-called “Dreamers.”
A group of roughly 14 Republican donors who billed themselves as “life long Republicans,” will reportedly send a letter to Republican leaders in which they stated that coming to an agreement with Democrats on the status of Dreamers “makes economic sense.”
What the hell does that mean..."reach a deal on illegal immigration?" How about simply enforcing the law and kicking their asses back to wherever they came from? But let's move on to the real turd in the punchbowl..."makes economic sense." Bullshit. Adding potentially millions of poorly educated people to the employment pool does one thing...it depresses wages. And to top it off, the amount of public assistance these potential employees consume is mind boggling. They use emergency rooms instead of doctor's offices for routine care, they enroll in every public assistance program in existence (aided by left-wing religious groups, Democrat NGOs, and even the government itself), and when they do work they are comfortable working off the books so that law-abiding people are priced out of those jobs. The goal of these so-called "Republicans" is a compliant labor force that will accept low wages to improve the bottom line of their businesses, while forcing the public to pay for most of their benefits. This is classic privatizing profit and socializing losses, and it is hugely damaging to America. But they don't care. And they are willing to buy the votes necessary to accomplish their goals, most obviously by paying off Mitch McConnell and Kevin McCarthy. This is one of the significant evils in our country, and these people -- perhaps as much as the hard left and their long march through our institutions -- are responsible for much of the decay in traditional American society, and the destruction of our economy. Shifting manufacturing to the Far East, diluting the labor markets, opening our borders: all of these things diminish not only our economy but our cohesiveness as a people, as a culture, as an idea. Any business group that does not explicitly reject the idea of immigration reform is a de facto supporter of the destruction of America. Don't be fooled by their high-minded names: the US Chamber of Commerce hates you and wants you poor. Business Roundtable? Sounds like they would be the good guys! Nope. They want to flood America with foreign workers, and fire you, but not before you train your replacement. MAGA isn't just a slogan. It encapsulates everything that these people despise, and that explains the all-encompassing attacks on anyone who has the temerity to push back against these globalist sharks who want to gut America in service of their wealth and influence. But at least we don't have mean tweets!

In a letter being sent Wednesday to Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell and House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy, 14 donors who call themselves “life-long Republicans” said that reaching a deal on immigration that provides permanent legal status to immigrants brought to the U.S. illegally as children “makes economic sense.”
The list of life-long Republicans includes Zeff Juckerberg, Beff Jezos, and Seorge Goros.

Here's the deal:
Illegal aliens have the right of return to their country and will be allowed to apply legally with no penalty provided they are not accused or convicted of any other crime. This expires in 30 days after which they are deported and permanently barred from entry.

They bring in illegals to work under the table, and they try to legalize criminals who will work at reduced wages. Then they take the profits from underpaid labor, and give a cut of it to our politicians, who ensure that they are not prosecuted. Nice racket.

From Adam Smith:
"People of the same trade seldom meet together, even for merriment and diversion, but the conversation ends in a conspiracy against the publick, or in some contrivance to raise prices."
Adam Smith wrote this 250 (almost) years ago and nothing has changed, because human nature is unchanged. Business leaders cannot be trusted because they are always looking to advance their interests, illegitimately, at the expense of the public. (Instead of raising prices, it's lowering wages, but it's the same cause.)

A crew of dreamers showed up to cut a neighbors lawn at 8 am yesterday. First they couldn't negotiate turning around in the driveway. Then, pissed off at that, they threw down the ramp at the highest noisiest level possible, then fired up the tractors, weed whackers, and leaf blowers in unison like they were deploying at Normandy Beach. This is 220 plus feet from my house but their easement is only 50 feet from the bedroom window of a night shift ER doctor who usually returns home around 6 am. The ER doctor and wife are probably too polite to bitch, but I wasn't.

Allow me to preempt the "both parties are the same, I'm not voting" types.
Yes, the GOP is full of squishes and quislings, but they are still better than the Dems, if for no other reason than that, once installed, they're going to want to keep their cushy jobs. Since they're our rascals, that gives us leverage going forward. If the Dems win, we have none. Progress will be incremental, but if you doubt that it happens, all you need to do is compare the party of '15 with that of today.

Theoretically, if a manufacturer hired a platoon of illegal aliens to produce their product, the artificially lower wages will offset the increased cost of materials and transport.
Of course, the Americans that were laid off won't be able to buy their products, but they didn't think that far ahead.

How do these dirt-poor peasants afford to cut a check for $5k or $10k or even more to cartel coyotes to get them over the border? How do they afford to march en masse to the border in the first place? They can't. They do it on credit. The cartels front the cost. The cartels are paid back via remittances.
Go El Norte, work for peanuts, live 12 to a room and send half your pay back home "for your family." Your family will keep a bit of it and send the rest to the friendly cartel man. And if you don't send the money, they'll kill your family members until you do. After all, you left them there as hostages.
The system is, at best, a structure of illegal and inhumane indenture but it's close enough to a slave trade that I'll call it what it is. And that doesn't even cover the drugs and weapons.

The very same corporations, politicians, academics, "philanthropists" and other such flotsam that decry American history and culture as tainted by the sin of slavery and thus is unforgivable simultaneously promote and directly finance the continuation of the world's largest slave trade.
They're monsters, to the very last man. The cultural, economic and civil destruction brought about by the continuation of these policies are to some of them additional benefits and to others merely an acceptable cost for their cheep slave labor and voting blocks.
Fuck them all. Sideways. Without lubricant. They all deserve a ride on a sandpaper-covered cock horse.

3. Expect about half your property taxes to be for schools
4. If you live in a county with a sizeable city, many line items will be "county" but a truly for the city
5. Comparing my property taxes (in a township, in a county with a city having a population of 190K) to my poor old gray haired mother (in a township with largest town about 26K) her taxes are about 14% less (her taxable value is $16K higher than mine). Her annual tax is around $2500 and mine around $2800. She's got twice the house, a barn, a detached garage, and over twice the land.

CBD,
It makes even less sense than that.
Our Betters are always telling us and, in fact, working on robots and computers that will make all of these jobs, which illegals do, obsolete in the near future. And many middle class jobs, now done by human beings, will go away too.
They also keep pushing this guarranteed income of $150/yr.
All I can figure is that, their "Great Reset" figures into to it like this.
They Cloward-Piven the US into energy-poor poverty. Seize all 401K, etc (-they always talk about this)
Middle and Working Classes gutted and destroyed.
We're (not them) are all equal now with our $150K/yr stipend to sit around and get stoned as easily controlled computers and robots do all "our" work.
Since everyone gets $150/yr, $150K is the new functional zero.
No one can afford anything, much less kids,
Population shrinks to new Gaia-friendly size.
Sounds like bad dystopian fiction, but it's all I can figure if you put all their stupid wants and plans together.

“Citizenship” is about us. It is to be cherished through countless acts of the will as expressions of our love of country and its ideals. We should honor our traditions and abide to the civilizing social compacts of family, community and other affirming institutions. Democrats and the republican “elites” cherish none of that….they are darkly cynical selling out citizenship for political and mercenary ends. They mock us when they mock “citizenship”.

The so-called “Dreamers” are every bit at fault as any other illegal. Even assuming they were brought here illegally as young children and thus had no direct hand in it — a dubious assumption, but let’s assume it — adult dreamers have had 20 or 30 years to obtain citizenship the right way. They didn’t do dick. So fuck them.

For forty years all we have wanted is an orderly border. Allowing the people who illegally broke through the border and have built lives in America to get citizenship or even permeant status just prolongs the pain.
Better to rip off the band-aid, send everyone home (easy to do, since virtually every other country on earth does it), and then build an orderly immigration process that protects our borders and provides and opportunity for immigration.
Just not that hard to do.

The vision is that the peasants will live in efficiency apartments and survive on the UBI handouts from the central power, which will be spent at captive monopolies. The monopolies will be fed by the UBI, and it will be fed from two sources: the top tier of wealth-owners (the monopolists, essentially, who will pay it because it keeps them in power) and the sizable middle group of engineers and technicians who keep the automation, robots, AI, etc. running.
The peasants will live their meager lives and escape to the Metaverse to live an ersatz life. The top tier will live as they do now, but with greater exclusivity. The middle group will live quite well.
This is insane for a number of reasons. The two likely outcomes are large-scale opt out, which becomes Mad Max outside the pods as they all vie to rule the wasteland. The other is that the middle group realizes that they ought to make the top tier kiss the ring (the March Count problem).

It's not a healthy sign, regardless of how late they are or their conclusions.
I remember driving up the road with my dad, maybe in 2014 or 2015. Pre-Trump. There was a news story on the radio about a poll that showed that around 20% (IIRC) of survey respondents though that a new civil war was "possible" or "likely" in the United States.
I commented at that time that the result of the survey was unimportant, but the survey itself was not. It doesn't matter so much if 10% or 60% of people think a civil war is brewing. It's much more relevant that the question is being seriously asked and studied. If you get to the point where you want - or even need - to ask that question, the civil society is already broken.

Mo Brooks also wants Trump to shut up about the stolen election, which Trump will NEVER do, so Trump pulled his endorsement. That's his bright red line on endorsements.
And I don't blame him for that. ymmv.

Wasn't there a poll/survey something that indicated Hispanics in general were now leaning right? You'd think (maybe) the Democrats would suddenly be the ones against letting more of 'em across the border.
Interesting situation, politically.
It's a problem regardless how they may or may not vote.

It's happening here in Texas, especially down by the border. Republicans are winning races that have not seen a republican win for 80+ years.

That's because many of the border crossers now are not Hispanic. Ulululululululu, if you catch my drift.

Dig deeper for the hidden meaning. The slow drip of insult and injury by American government won't provoke the response when it finally touches the right pressure point.
It is more likely the final trigger of outrage will be provoked by the subtle and unseen. The 11' 7" weed eater toss isn't merely a reaction to the inability to start the engine, but rather an outward manifestation of pent up hostility that has welled within the soul and mind of the operator, to the point in which it can no longer be contained.

Republicans, or should I say conservatives, really need to wean themselves from the worship of large corporations. The days when big corporations were champions of free enterprise are long over. They are now enthusiastic supporters of big government, which their superior clout allows them to manipulate to their benefit, freezing out smaller competitors.
Yes, everything else being equal, one should favor less government interference over more. But 90 years after FDR was first elected, the economy is tangled in a hopelessly convoluted mass of regulations so that sometimes new regulations are needed to correct past mistakes and to curtail the worst excesses of big business's alliance with big government. Government has learned to use corporations to do their dirty work because private business is not obligated to respect your rights.
And so things are usually not equal but rather weighted heavily in favor of big corps. The pandemic only accelerated this process, and the woke revolution has further entrenched corporations on the side of big government.
Conservatives should promote free enterprise and small business, not crony capitalism and bloated corporations.

Brooks has always maintained that the election was stolen. He has NEVER deviated from that.
Brooks fell far behind when Durant entered the race. Trump pulled his endorsement because he feared Brooks couldn't win. He trashed Brooks as "going woke" to try to make himself look better.

OK, all 2 year olds are natural tyrants, so here's my product idea...
A little white "parade dress" toddler uniform, bedecked with little medals and brightly colored sash, with peaked cap, and little aviator glasses for accessories.
I think my "Lil' Augusto" kids line will be a hit. Maybe I'll come up a "Lil' Imelda" line for girls, that has like 300,000 shoe options.

If you ever posted in social media that America is awful and want it to become a third-world socialist paradise, we'll send you to the Latin American country of your choice. Why waste your miserable life on an "awful" country when you can live in Venezuela or countless other countries that implement exactly the policies you vote for?

This is classic misdirection intended to confuse the discussion. I bet every one of us here feels that immigrants are a positive thing, by and large. HOWEVER... not ILLEGAL immigrants. If their first act is breaking the law to be here illegally, they are not "our strength". They're lawbreakers, and should be treated as such.

Jobs in my field are practically raining down from the trees. I get notifications daily about jobs opening up all over the place.
There's no way illegal immigrants would be able to fill these positions (they require a very specific set of skills).

The pro-illegal crowd is mostly just aiming to massively oversupply a specific segment of the market with people who have to work at below-market wages(being deportable and abundant makes them pretty expendable).

I wonder if illegal immigrant employees are less likely to file lawsuits than US citizens? That would certainly be a 'benefit' to the COC types.

If their first act is breaking the law to be here illegally, they are not "our strength". They're lawbreakers, and should be treated as such.

"That's why they soak the people who are actually insured."
Also to pay for Medicare folx like me. I look at the bills and see how much the doctor has to discount the bill to meet the Medicare price. I know I'm not supposed to feel guilty about it because 'after all, I paid into the system.' But I know, everybody knows, that even if those FICA contributions weren't outright stolen, they still wouldn't come close to covering the empty promises that lay behind the New Deal.
I really don't understand why doctors take Medicare patients at all. Bless the ones who do.

Now that I think about it, "Real Dictator Housewives" would be a pretty sweet show. Get a bunch of these chicks to live for a season in a rented McMansion in Orange County or the Hamptons, where they drink and fight with each other, and order their most hated concubines to be poisoned, etc.

Asymmetric access to the US labor market is the biggest benefit of citizenship.
Reducing that benefit, whether its dreamers or open borders, is terribly destructive.

That's what DACA does. They get a SSN. They can't claim federal welfare.
I always forget about DACA. Mainly because it shouldn't exist. But not all illegals register under DACA, fearing it will lead to deportation. And it should.

Brooks fell far behind when Durant entered the race. Trump pulled his endorsement because he feared Brooks couldn't win. He trashed Brooks as "going woke" to try to make himself look better.

It looks to me like Trump is stepping in front of an already massive and unstoppable parade. Corporate media has gotten on board with noticing how "Trump candidates" are winning elections.
Seems to me candidates just have to say what everyone can see for themselves, that the Democrats are the problem, and they should win if they do that. I don't think Trump's endorsement has anything to do with it.

So, you're saying they took the place of American citizens in our colleges and they're taking jobs away from citizens, and this is supposed to make us more supportive of legalizing them?
Are you aware that thousands of American citizens working in the tech industry have been forced to train their replacements brought in from other countries who are willing to be paid far less than them, and then these Americans are fired?
And you say it's not zero-sum. Maybe not all of it, but that is no consolation to these now-jobless Americans forced out of one of the highest paying industries.
College admissions is zero-sum. Colleges only have so many slots per year. If a "dreamer" (barf - as if Americans' dreams are less worthy) takes one, that's one less American going to that college. You are aware colleges are heavily subsidized by taxpayers, right?

It varies from state to state and from health care provider, but in my particular circumstance I have a top rated Medicare 'Advantage' plan and the very same Doctors who are in the association that insures tens of millions of the younger are also accepting the Medicare Advantage consumers. The benefits I am able to receive are embarrassing to me and would take an hour to describe. But I don't feel guilty because I haven't cost them a cent. Yet.

My family has helped a Sudanese Christian family who went through years of HELL to escape the never-ending civil war there and jumped through all the hoops (and then some) to immigrate LEGALLY to the USA. They are the hardest-working, most grateful folks I know, and love this country.
Sorry, but if folks like that can go through the immigration and naturalization process, Dreamers can too. Every nation that I know of (including the places their parents came from) has borders and laws for enforcing those borders and protecting citizenship rights. Just cuz we're the Shining City on a Hill or some such crap doesn't mean we toss those laws in the crapper.

The elites who make these policies and the affluent white liberals who support them can afford to insulate themselves from the consequences. They live in rich gated communities, send their children to expensive private schools and drive around in their $90k Teslas, never setting foot on public transportation. What do they care if the filthy proles have their communities destroyed, die of overdoses out in flyover country and get stabbed by vibrant diversity on the subway?
These people fully intend to throw us to the fucking wolves and reduce our neighborhoods to third world favelas so they can continue ethnically replacing us with more compliant slave laborers.
