- In America, you are not permitted to discuss the great
migration of immigrants into this country in a reasoned rational manner.
The well funded PR by corporate interests; has Americans labeled as racist,
bigoted, and intolerant. The immigration of old - is held up as a banner
of 'give me your tired and huddled masses who yearn to be free'. Since
few know history you can tell them anything today. Everybody can identify
Ronald McDonald but only a small fraction of the population can name the
Secretary of State, discuss a trade agreement with you, or give the year
of the Civil War. None that I personally know can describe our monetary
system or the history of the Federal Reserve. Few realize that these numerous
trade agreements, written for the benefit of multinational companies (absent
any loyalty), are the reason for this great worldwide dislocation. Including
the victims!
-
- It is not the immigrant (illegal or otherwise), or the
American out of work, and burdened down with taxes, who is to be fully
blamed. People (deliberately so) are being propagandized into taking their
frustrations, anger, and fears out on one another. Daily we hear the drumbeat
of violence on the border, Mexican gangs, schools overrun with illegal
students, hospitals going bankrupt, and small town America being overrun
with thousands of immigrants. The owners of the world want to keep the
victims attacking one another. They certainly don't want this being identified
as a 'class' issue! The few - ruling the many for their own good pleasure
and profit!
-
- The truth of the matter is - the America of old is no
more. While the immigrants of yesterday (exploited though they were) helped
build a nation (bridges, railroads, highways, steel mills, textile mills,
manufacturing, farming etc). These are all things of the past. Yesterday's
immigrants built a nation. Today's immigrants are meant to labor for cheap
wages, on the new corporate plantation. Someone has to serve the rich
and fight their ungodly wars for more and more gold, oil, timber, water,
etc. The immigrant of today, unlike yesteryear, is afforded all kinds
of assistance, relocation funds, housing allowances, job assistance counseling,
stipends, etc. None of this existed for those who first immigrated. Today,
the small farm is being put out of business by the corporate farms with
their genetically altered Frankenstein crops. Mexicans are flooding across
the border due to a failed NAFTA (Hillary says she just remembers graphs
and lines). The small village farms in Mexico can't compete with the tons
of corporate farm produce flooding their market. Besides, China has underbid
them in cheap labor, so now even their factories are leaving. China also
is building huge ports in Mexico thus bypassing American ports (dock workers
- warehousing etc). The Mexican trucks ( who cares if they're insured or
safe) now pouring in by the thousands should end the jobs for our truckers.
Fishing is already gone (visit New Bedford). Now we're buying seafood from
China!
-
- The auto plants, textile mills, manufacturing plants,
steel mills, paper mills, and supporting industries in America, have all
gone belly-up. Maytag (no breaking news) laid off thousands, a few weeks
back and left for foreign shores! With the help of federal subsidies etc,
(helpful politicians) these industries have all been shipped to foreign
lands; that accommodate the corporate hucksters of today with a larger
profit margin. They don't have to contend with bothersome health, safety,
or environmental protections in third world countries. Labor standards
- ha, work till you drop -is the corporate mantra. Americans meantime,
cannot compete with slave labor, making 32 cents to a dollar an hour
! No matter that the junk coming in; is inferior, laced with lead, or
other poisons. China now holds America hostage, with its funding of our
perpetual war- that goes about the world, bombing - shattering - melting
and shredding. The borrower is always slave to the lender. It's pretty
lamentable knowing that a Tiger Woods makes more for endorsing NIKI, by
wearing their logo on his cap, than all the slave labor combined making
these costly shoes. What a world. Same with the other gladiator sports
stars.
-
- Our prisons (our newest growing industry) are filled
with millions (largest incarceration in the world). A for profit industry,
needs products (prisoners), thus many imprisoned today, are there for
non-violent crimes. Would that they were in government they'd get a pardon
for their crimes. Corporate America, has found that producing their product
with prison labor; saves them the bother of a livable wage, health insurance,
or maintaining a facility. Best of all no unions and no strikes. Old Joe
Hill (early labor activist) would be put in solitary confinement.
-
- While the news today is filled with announcements of
the invasion of Mexicans, the truth is, thousands - upon tens - of thousands;
are being imported from distant war torn lands . Then we have the multitudes
of guest workers that Congress has voted to bring in - to keep their
corporate funders happy. These visas cover everything from help for the
various tourist Meccas, (once a place where youth worked in the summer
to earn money for college) to the professional fields (teachers, nurses,
doctors, engineers, and information technology). Since all of this is
happening incrementally and insidiously - the full scope of the problem
is not seen. News is kept localized, thus those who live in Kansas have
no idea of the thousands of Somalians who've relocated to an old mill
town in Maine, nor do folks in Oklahoma, know of the paper mills closing
in New Hampshire. Who's talking about the closed textile mills, or Detroit,
that resembles a wasteland out of a Mad Max movie? You'll not hear 'breaking
news' of American workers having to train their replacements. If they refuse
they risk losing any chance of severance pay.
-
- When building a global plantation, with the ultimate
goal being a redistribution of the wealth (leveling in quality of living
standards); rest assured that this redistribution is our money they're
talking about, not those raking in the profits, and banking offshore,
or maintaining their money in 'hidden trusts'. China now imports tons
of contaminated products; yet these various trade agreements disallow
any inspections - recalls - or refusals. Least we forget, globalists (not
democrats) Hillary and Bill, gave us NAFTA (thus the exodus from Mexico)
and Most Favored Nation trading with China. Hillary, meantime, promised
those in Silicon Valley that she would see to it, that more guest visas
would be given, to import thousands of more foreign workers. Republican
or Democrat, makes no matter, we now have a corporate controlled government.
One can see that those 'working' ( I use the word lightly) in Foggy Bottom,
are merely treading water. They have accomplished zero in the few days
that they work per week. They are punctual in voting their yearly cost
of living raises and other perks ( millions in earmarks for their corporate
friends back home). Remember, the name of the GAME, is to stay in office
(get that obsene pension) not to serve the people. Over these past several
years, our governmental agencies have been quietly decimated, with
corporate appointees replacing those in key positions. Privatization of
governmental services (such as the military) are being contracted out.
Thus, the disgusting mess at Walter Reed - and having to prove (true);
that your missing face, missing arm, and brain damage, is a total disability!
It's 'be all you can be' till you come home all smashed up. Everything
is broken in this country - everything!
-
- The fort like department of education, meantime,
throws out new social engineering mandates to the states on a regular
basis. Thus the children of today can 'feel' good about being failures,
unable to read, write a coherent paragraph, discuss a work of literature,
or the history of our nation. The workers of tomorrow (cannon fodder
for war) are being conditioned to group think - non-think - and passive,
servile, compliance. We're not training the next Hawkins, Eisenstein
or Mark Twain. A look at America's rating with the rest of the world
proves my point. The children of the elite - well connected etc, are
isolated from tomorrow's servile masses, and are being educated in private
schools, with the best of equipment, teachers, and courses. No bathroom
classrooms for them, or having to contend with gangs, drug addicts, or
antiquated books. Their schools aren't prisons with fences, security, metal
detectors, and barbed wire. They have hundreds of acres of sports, fields,
science buildings, computer labs, and libaries that would put many a town's
to shame.
-
- The school room of today, with its special needs students,
and children of various ethnic backgrounds (many not speaking English)
are nothing more than holding pens. The emphasis is on passing the TEST
not understanding the subject. I can study the driver's manual - why I
could memorize it. To what end? If I have never sat in a car, let alone
started it up - what does it matter that I got a passing percentage! I
am still stupid in the ways of the road. The point is, that I can 'feel'
good knowing that I can't drive! Furthermore, it is a great disservice,
to mix special needs/handicapped children, into a regular classroom.
A point for another discussion - in the end all the students are being
robbed of reaching their full potential - but then maybe that's the
objective?
-
- What we are seeing across the nation, from Georgia, to
Oregon, to the heartland, and north east, is an ethnic cleansing of small
town America. Various cultures, languages, religious ceremonies, dress,
foods, etc, make strangers of us all. But then strangers are less apt to
be unified or untied in any solidarity should there be a crisis or grave
injustice that needs addressed. The approximate 192,000 homeless veterans
(including the Iraq War), and hundreds of thousands of other homeless;
living in tents (the Gulf - Seattle) and in shelters, abandoned cars etc,
many displaced from their jobs by immigrant labor, are naturally angry,
seeing immigrants afforded every kind of help with housing, jobs etc.
-
- Texas (Houston): "There are parts of Houston where
if you didn't know better, you'd think you were in Mexico. In Sugarland
our homeowner taxes are through the roof - our schools are rife with ESL
classes. My grandchildren are in the minority in their 'wonderful diverse
student body. Muslim students are given special accommodations while Christmas
can no longer be celebrated." Bud Hamilton
-
- Like Maine - Emporia, Kansas is preparing for an influx
of Somali refugees. Emporia is a small city near the easter Flint Hills
in the sunflower state. Emporia has a major beef processing plant for Tyson
Foods.(the Clinton's buddies). Thousands are needed for cheap labor -
thus, aha, refugees. Because Somalis are certified as 'humanitarian refugees'
under out State Department rules, they are to be supported by social services
provided by the Office of Refugee Resettlement (Dept of Health and Human
Services).
-
- This agency in turn contracts via state Department of
Social Services with providers such as Catholic Charities to deliver services.
U.S. Taxpayers pick up the tab (this is nationwide). Food processors like
Tyson couldn't be happier, given the tightness of the low skilled labor
pool in the area. Emporia (as is most of the heartland) is becoming a
major destination for these foot soldiers of Islam. Because of its size
(Emporia), not unlike Lewiston, Maine, will see this influx have a substantial
and taxing impact. Other cities that have seen this influx are Indianapolis,
Minneapolis, Lincoln, Kansas City, and Nashville, to name a few. In New
Orleans (Gulf) thousands of immigrants were imported for the work of
clean up. Meantime the tens of thousands dislocated Katrina victims,
across the nation, remain in limbo unable to return with no housing
or jobs.
-
- These immigrants (from Bosnia - Somalia etc) are being
recruited for the lowest of low end jobs - butchering and meat packing.
At Swift and Company (beef processor) in Lincoln, Nebraska, butchers and
meat packers quit their jobs because of insuffieient 'prayer time'. This
was accommodated and they returned. Imagine this happening in the coal
mines, steel mills, or rail line employment of former immigrants to this
country. These low paying jobs are further subsidized with the 'earned
income tax credit' monies. This has low earners compenstated, with thousands
more per year (a subsidy really for corporate owners). This is tax payer
money.
-
- And so it goes across the land. The Democrats want the
votes of these immigrants, and the Republicans want the cheap labor. The
immigrants, really our new slave labor class, are mostly unskilled and
illiterate. When my husbands family immigrated here from Newfoundland and
Ireland; they had to have a sponsor and medical clearance. My grandparents
from Russia settled in Pennsylvania. There were no relocation agencies
or housing vouchers etc. My grandfather worked as a skilled stone mason,
saved, and bought a farm. Also a skilled carpenter, he built his home
and barn (helped neighbors with theirs). Farming his acreage, he was totally
self sufficient, and sold the excess, which they took to market by horse
and wagon. When he dropped dead in the field at age 43 my grandma and her
eight children, ran the farm.
-
- The language of the old country was not spoken in their
home. The one room school house my aunts and uncles attended had no remedial
language classes. Somehow, despite the hardships of rising early to attend
to chores, and walking four miles to school, they all graduated, and
went on to various professional jobs, including a doctor, nurse, newspaper
editor, engineer etc. NO - they didn't have the excuse of being too 'stressed
out' to excel. It was the same thing in the mill town where I lived as
a youngster. The population were mainly immigrants. The number one priority
of parents was education. Disrespect in the classroom was not heard of.
There were no gangs, no graffiti, no designer clothes, no violent videos,
or TV. Teachers were allowed to teach. Parents didn't park their kids
in a nursery school at age two and have strangers raise them.
-
- The politicians and special interests groups, who are
championing this importation of immigrants and refugees, from all
corners of the globe, are not in the work a day world, having their jobs
taken over by a guest worker, or having a job underbid by an unscrupulous
contractor who employees cheap immigrant labor. Sometimes they get paid
(immigrants) and sometimes not. Being illegal has them rendered voiceless.
They live in wealthy, gated, or removed villages that are absent needed
social services, or they vote in zoning protections to keep out cheap
housing. Their children are educated in private schools. Their children
won't be competing with immigrant labor for that nursing job, IT worker,
carpenter, or meat packing job. A man could once earn a decent living
(thanks to Sinclair's The Jungle) at a meat packing plant. No more - these
dangerous jobs now pay an approximate $8.00 an hour.
-
- Sociopaths (or their lap dogs) are running most of the
major governments of the world, and most of the major industries and financial
institutions. Sociopaths are not much interested in mutual uplift and global
benefit for the great bulk of the human race. They are primarily interested
in war, plunder, destruction, cruel domination, violent subjugation and
ruthless social control. So much to plunder; so much to loot and so little
time. Meantime who cares about Mexico emptying its land of the poor, dispossessed,
illiterate, and sick. More for the few hogs that run that corrupt country.
Meantime - home on the range, we have these theatrical cartoon characters
running for office (the winner has already been anointed - duh). The corporate
media has programmed the mindless masses to the next Clinton regime.
True, some people are so ignorant they'd vote for someone just because
of gender! Bush, Clinton, Bush, Clinton - why, in a country of some
300 million + we'll have 28 years of the same elitist appointed dynasty.
Meantime, few are aware of the implosion of America, and the massive
plantation that is being constructed. Now for the 'chip' to keep track
of all these 'human resources'. Hey, isn't that what all this fuss is about
over licenses and immigrant ID? In days of old it was unsightly branding
! The old Hegelian Dietetic - works everytime. See article above
of Iowa going global ! JM

- Reading Declining In Kids And Teens
- A new study released by the the National Endowment for
the Arts indicates that kids and teenagers aren't reading nearly as much
as they used to. Sunil Iyenger, Director of Research and Analysis, discusses
the study and what parents can do to help. This might explain why so many
on-line articles fail to reach their mark - and why despite "THE NEWS"
this nation keeps falling like a rock into the whirlwind of chaos. . .
