- Economist Paul Roberts wrote on January 21, 2003,
"Will
America become a Third World country in 20 years?" In the Christian
Science Monitor, December 11, 2003, "But as the US economy shifted
toward service jobs, factory jobs have steadily lost-in fact in just the
past 39 months, some 2.8 million jobs vanished."
-
- Where are they going? China. India. Mexico. Deep into
the Third World. "You Americans have lived an artificially high
standard
of living for a long time," a man working one our jobs outsourced
to India wrote me. "It's time you Americans drop to the poverty levels
of the rest of the Third World."
-
- American jobs are offshored, insourced and outsourced
at such blinding speed that millions of American citizens stand in
unemployment
lines every morning while the rest of us go to work, that is, if we still
have jobs.
-
- America's middle class is being dismantled by jobs
exported
to cheap-labor Third World countries. CEOs and corporations that enjoy
the luxuries of America's hard won freedom care not a tinker's dam whether
you have a job or not-or a living wage. But the American man and woman
on the street--the ones with two kids, a mortgage and bills coming out
of their ears--stand powerless as their jobs vanish.
-
- Worse, our Congress upped the H-1B visas by another
20,000
again this year. That quota rise spits in the face of thousands of American
IT workers standing in unemployment lines. Our Congress gave out nearly
one million H-1B visas in the past decade. Congress facilitates
outsourcing,
insourcing and offshoring! Why complain? You just re-elected most of them
back into Congress. Cannon, Kennedy, McCain, Udall, Degette, Pelosi,
Allard,
Dillon, Kyle, Kolbe, Flake and the list continues.
-
- Paul Hamilton write his story, "You have to work
in the Silicone Valley for a while to really understand what it is like
to be a white male in the IT business now days. I've worked for the
Chinese,
Iranians and Indians. I could tell you some horror stories ...HORROR
stories!
My career went to China, India and the WWW a long time ago though.
-
- "Today, I am a plumber. I started a new career and
things are that tough here in California. I was lucky enough to get on
with Marina Plumbing which is a huge Corporation that does the plumbing
on new construction...think BIG housing subdivisions.
-
- "I look around on the job site and I am the only
white male in a sea of Mexicans. Few of these Mexicans speak English. There
are usually several boom boxes blaring Maruichi music all day long. The
Mexicans OWN ALL THE TRADES! The concrete workers, the framers, the heavy
equipment operators, the roofers and even the truck drivers delivering
building materials--ALL are Mexicans.
-
- "President Bush is 100 percent off the mark, or
he is crazy... or?" "I was the leading channel rep in the
Silicone
Valley for high end CISCO switches. For a year and a half I have been in
IBM's Presidents club before. I wonder what the Germans thought circa 37,
38, 39 when the SS was taking over and doing the dirty work for Hitler?
Were the Germans just sitting around wondering what was going on? Were
they just sitting there in disbelief? I hear our esteemed President talking
about Mexican Amnesty and think about how they have already brought misery
to an already dead-broke state and wonder what the hell?"
-
- But there is another ominous skullduggery afoot across
this country. It's the importation of illegal aliens by major US companies
who thwart Federal Laws in order to 'lose' American workers and then,
wholesale,
break OSHA standards at will. How? Because illegal aliens will not make
a whimper for fear of losing their jobs.
-
- The displacement of American workers proceeds
methodically.
American corporations sacrifice American workers in the name of profit.
Over 200,000 illegal aliens swarm the Colorado job market. They displace
Denver pavers, roofers, landscapers, beef processing plants, framers, dry
wallers and virtually have taken over all fast food restaurants.
-
- This story repeats millions of times. A recent television
news broadcast by one of the big three showed a man who had just made the
'Wall of Unemployment Shame' in his workplace, which included 1,000 fellow
employees who had been laid off. Formerly making $22.00 an hour, he's now
driving a delivery truck for $11.00 an hour. His wife and children struggle
with their new financial reality.
-
- Currently, 15 million illegal aliens commandeer jobs
away from American citizens. If they don't steal those jobs, they depress
the wages to the point of legalized slavery. We have an estimated one
million
illegal alien Chinese in this country (Source: March 2005 Forbes Magazine).
At the same time, we outsource jobs to China where a billion people can't
wait to make 50 cents an hour. Human smugglers bringing illegals into
America
make $7 billion annually according to the report.
-
- Do they work the jobs Americans won't do? False! If
American
doctors were paid $5.00 an hour they wouldn't be working those hospital
jobs either.
-
- You have to ask yourself if you want illegal immigrant
doctors working at minimum wage to perform a by-pass heart surgery on you?
Would you like an illegal immigrant lawyer defending you in court for $5.00
an hour? How about a $5.00 an hour illegal immigrant college professor
teaching your kids calculus? How about an illegal alien truck driver
driving
down the road at 70 MPH with 80,000 pounds of steel, no ability to read
English and a fifth grade education-from Mexico's educational
system?
-
- Meanwhile, profits soar for corporations while the middle
class of America plummets into worsening unemployment. Will America drop
into Third World conditions as economist Paul Roberts predicts? At the
current rate of 4.1 million legal and illegal newcomers imported into the
United States annually, it's only a matter of time before, we too, manifest
conditions of the Third World. You can't drown the labor market with
millions
of people and expect to keep your wages high when immigrants will undercut
you.
-
- That's why the pay in China or India is less than $10.00
per day. They have 2.4 billion people in those two countries. That's why
they live subsistence lives. In time, that reality will manifest itself
in America as the middle class vanishes. It's already happening. You need
look no further than California as an example of the first Third World
State of America.
-
- Call your representative at 1-877-762-8762 and ask if
he or she is on the Tom Tancredo Immigration Reform Caucus in the US House
of Representatives? If your rep isn't--demand that he join because you
are sick and tired of Americans jobs being given away to illegal aliens.
You're sick of H-1B and L-1 visas as well as offshoring, insourcing and
outsourcing. Make that call today!
