White House Immigration Pow-Wow Yields Agreement That Consensus Does Not Exist

As expected, today’s immigration summit at the White House didn’t yield any big news, unless you happen to be waiting for an update on your citizenship application, in which case you’ll soon be able to check that online.

Other than that, President Obama simply acknowledged the obvious, which is that “there’s not by any means consensus around the table” on immigration reform, but “after all the demagoguery, we’ve got a responsible set of leaders who want to get things done.” He commended Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) in particulart, and promised to get to work on hammering out a solution to the immigration problem, which he acknowledged “needs fixing.”

These people have no clue! The majority of the citizens of the United Stated do NOT want amnesty but these idiots expect to cram it down our throats against our will. They are confused about who they are supposed to represent. Apparently they believe they are the United Nations rather than the United States!

You again? Jesus.

The majority of Americans, 61%, support legalizing undocumented immigrants as part of reform.

AMNESTY WILL COST US TAXPAYERS $2.6 TRILLION DOLLARS.

Don't anybody tell you that illegal immigrants are good for the economy? For businesses who harbor the cheap labor and make huge profits a guaranteed–YES! But certainly not for the US taxpayer, who supports the illegal worker? Summoning up the tax situation the Heritage foundation after complex analysis for 2004, conveys “that for low-skill immigrant households paid only $10,573 in taxes. Thus, low-skill immigrant households received nearly three dollars in benefits and services for EACH DOLLAR in taxes paid. The federal government operates over 60 means-tested aid programs. The largest of these are Medicaid; the Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC); food stamps; Supplemental Security Income (SSI); Section 8 housing; public housing; Temporary Assistance to Needy Families (TANF); the school lunch and breakfast programs; the WIC (Women, Infants, and Children) nutrition program; and the Social Services Block Grant (SSBG).

Many means-tested programs, such as SSI and the EITC, provide cash to recipients. Others, such as public housing or SSBG, pay for ser­vices that are provided to recipients.” Another fallacy is that illegal immigrants cannot apply for any federal benefits, but even those programs have been abused with fraudulent documents.

Then their is the classic illegal female who slips past the undermanned border patrols, pregnant with child under the current misguided law, becomes an instant burden on the US taxpayer. Quoted as, ” Illegal immigrant households do contain some 3 million children who were born inside the U.S. to illegal immigrant parents. These children are U.S. citizens and are eligible for, and do receive, means-tested welfare of every category.” Assuming all Americans, even liberals and so called progressives want to know more, they should venture to the non-profit organization The Heritage Foundation under the headline, ”
The Fiscal Cost of Low-Skill Immigrants to the U.S. Taxpayer by Robert E. Rector and Christine Kim Verify the extraction tool from the workplace of foreign labor and the 8th Amnesty is enacted against the peoples wishes, the next irreversible ultimate problem is OVERPOPULATION. Another headline that must interest the avid reader from the same source AMNESTY WILL COST US TAXPAYERS $2.6 TRILLION DOLLARS. The only outcome of this massive AMNESTY would be irreversible OVERPOPULATION. Steve Reiss, points a disturbing fact, not disclosed by our government. If the current immigration bill being debated by congress passes it will be the 8th AMNESTY in 21 years. NUMBERSUSA has answers.

MAYBE THE ILLEGAL IMMIGRANT INVASION DOESN'T GET YOU ON THE PHONE. BUT A FUTURE OF OVERPOPULATION SHOULD?
