Useful Immigration Quotes

Looking for a useful immigration quote? Look in FAIR’s Quotes Library. New entries posted today are the following from U. Cal-Davis agricultural economist Dr. Philip Martin excerpted from the transcript of a March 25 Q&A session sponsored by the Population Reference Bureau.

(On U.S. immigration policy) “The U.S. accepts about 3,500 legal immigrants a day, or 1.3 million a year, more than the rest of the world combined. Most Americans want immigration reduced.”

...

(On deterring illegal immigration) “Most people agree that a key to reducing unauthorized migration is closing the labor market door to illegal workers. Northern European countries such as Sweden do this much better than the U.S., as do Singapore, Japan, and many other industrial countries.”

...

(On immigrants’ impact on population growth) “Immigrants have a higher fertility rate than the U.S.-born population and they are relatively young, in the child-bearing years, so the percentage of births to foreign-born women is higher than their share of US residents. About 24 percent of the 4.1 million U.S. births in 2004 were to immigrant women, and 63 percent of births to Hispanic mothers were women born outside the U.S.”

Here's a usefull immgration quote of mine,
"If it's McCain, flush it down the drain."

Not an endorsement, by the way of Hillary "free Trade" Clinton, or Barack, equal opportunity racism Obama.

GREAT QUOTES

I'd add this caveat to all of them: the Bureau of Labor Statistics shows the following data on the top 30 occupations with largest employment growth (2006-2016):

http://www.bls.gov/news.release/ecopro.t05.htm

Note: About 20% of the jobs require degrees, the rest are mostly/basically unskilled jobs. Where are the engineers? They aren't even on the list.

It all makes perfect sense now doesn't it.

The open door nut corporate powers have brainlessly outsourced our manufacturing engineering and research/development hopes; now they want a glut of overpopulation slaves to fill these remaining unskilled BLS jobs at slave wages.

This is the future world your kid with a college degree and no job experience will inherit from the Baby Boomers.

Like I said before, don't clean their room out just yet, especially if they have no work experience or more importantly, a work ethic.

We need to reduce halt all immigration for 10 years and let the legal immigrants assimilate. Naturally, illegal aliens should be deported. Where are the Democrats when it comes to protecting American jobs and wages? Where is McCain when it come to protecting American jobs and wages? AWOL?

Bobby,

What is an American to do? I am so sick and tired of choosing between the lesser of two evils, and once again that is the choice we have to make. Any suggestions?

Posted by: melena29 on March 31, 2008 11:51 AM

Sure I have a suggestion. Vote for whoever you want to. YOU WANT TO. For my part I'm voting for Congressman Dr. Ronald Paul. I will write him in if I have to. Will he win? Probably not. But what kind of integrity do I have, if I vote for the lesser of the evils? I'm still voting for evil. I won't do it any longer. That way I keep my self respect and those Americans who are stuck in their Political Party mentality can have their fun and games. If Shawn Hannity, Rush Limbaugh, and Bill O'Reilly,among others, including Democrats, really believed they were free, they would have rejected Hillary, Obama, McCain, and any other Oh so obvious shill for corporate American and open borders, invade the world, invite the world candidate. Dr. Ron Paul is the only guy, in my opinion, who cares about this nation and the citizens in it.
