Stop it, just stop it. Illegal aliens aren’t coming to America to take American jobs. They aren’t coming here to get on American welfare rolls. They aren’t coming here to replace or further disadvantage black people.
Those that decide to come here do so because we have a poem with these words, “Give me your tired, your poor, Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free, The wretched refuse of your teeming shore.” The vast majority of these people don’t represent a burden to our social safety nets. They aren’t getting welfare or food subsidies. They are working in jobs that Americans don’t want to do.
In a country full of immigrants the hypocrisy is astounding. What Americans need to be worried about is how big business games the system. They attack illegal immigration while they use visa programs like H-1B to import foreign labor for high paying technology jobs. The math is simple if they can save 10,000 to 15,000 employing foreign labor versus US talent it goes right to the bottom line. While those that enter the US on H-1B visas do pay taxes a large part of their earnings end up somewhere else in the world.
The H-1B visa program is directed at jobs that American employers have difficulty filling. The difficulty stems from the fact that our students aren’t being prepared for STREAM opportunities. They are graduating without the skills or experience needed in a technology evolving world.
None of this is the fault of illegal aliens. Stop scapegoating and begin investing in our kids. The illegal alien is just the scapegoat.
