One of the better Van Halen shots from Saturday night... http://t.co/7FdccN3S and the cradle did rock.
My nephew got a new job. While this may not be the sort of thing worthy of celebration for Dogs of Freedom, but the reason for his job change may be instructive.
My nephew works (worked) for a major soft-drink company. Their union contract was up for renewal and management offered them this: no raises over the course of the next four years and a reduction in benefits.
One need only look at the employment trends at this employer to understand why. There has been a huge influx in the number of immigrants on the payroll.
You can fill in the blanks. The argument that immigrants are doing the job Americans wont is intellectually vacant. The assessment ought to, more honestly, be this: immigrants are willing to work at American jobs cheaper than the natives.
Big business has a huge vested interest in cheap labor. Their natural affinity is to their bottom line and, only secondarily, with the integrity of American sovereignty. When we look at the Kennedys and McCains in this dog fight, we should be supremely aware of the tail wagging them.
