What voter demographic will likely allow the current Gov. of California to retain that office?
Nothing wrong with democracy in action, but it flies right in the face of the resident idiots and beyond who poorly attempt to say immigration isn't about votes.
Well, I don't really care who wins the elections. I just support amnesty because it is terrific for the economy, good for America, and the right thing to do. I can see why union bosses would oppose it, but I don't really understand why the republicans are getting so worked up about it.
It's only good for the economy if those granted amnesty are able to go on to be productive tax paying citizens. Unless of course your someone who thinks that social welfare programs and entitlements are a good form (not a form of, but a good form of) of economic stimulus.
But again, the primary point I'm making is that it's absurd to think that on a political level amnesty is nothing less than securing a massive new bloc of voters.
Why would they need to become citizens or qualify for social welfare programs?
Technically, you're supposed to be a citizen to receive benefits. That isn't always the case in practice, but I can guarantee the demand for these benefits - and resulting
drain on our economy - will be much worse if immedially confer legal status to another 15-20 million (or more?) poor people. It's seems like common sense that, in a nation with an $18 trillion debt and climbing, we ought to reduce our welfare spending - not increase it.
