little2add Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 (edited) We don't need three more jobs going overseas, do we? Manufacturing is in a huge decline in this country along with good paying jobs almost EveryThing in the stores is made overseas, now. American worker will being replaced by workers willing to work for: substandard wages, sweatshops, Child labor, no OSHA protection or rights, no sort of pension retirement, etc just to name a few The only Benefactor from such an arrangement will be the CEO's of big international corporations It will also undermine the wages of the average middle class American and further reduce our countries GNP Edited January 29, 2016 by little2add Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

China tops America in pollution and production and does it all a cheaper cost, on top of attacking America via the internet and hacking, yet time and again instead of shutting China out of the life of America and placing sanctions on China, China gets a pass, because they do it cheap. Yet some how our governments can manage to stay friends amidst a cyber war. We need China like we need another hole in the head. The debt owed to China can not be repaid and there fore is just mere a pretend number at this point, America can easily stand on its' own two feet, and tell China to sit an spin. It is just our government keeps brow beating Americans into believing that it just isn't possible to be self sufficient. Companies are just beyond too lazy to create a solid and quality product, cheaper and faster and replaceable quickly is what they give us. And if civilians in China suffer or where ever, it is just too bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StMichael Posted January 30, 2016 Share Posted January 30, 2016 On January 27, 2016 at 7:56:02 PM, Peace said: Are you suggesting that Latinos desire a welfare state or government assistance more so than other groups? At least from my own personal experience, the Latino people, especially immigrants, that I have met seem to be among the hardest working members of society. So I do not quite understand what you are getting at. Something that is illegal is, by the very definition of it, not allowed. So I would agree with you there. Oh yeah. Tell Latino voters that they need to stop being so lazy and work for a change. That message will definitely get you the numbers that you need to take back the white house. Those peoples coming into the country, packed like sardines in trucks, what are their educational levels? What skill set are they bringing into the US? The majority are low-skilled and uneducated. Furthermore, they do look to the government for assistance, regardless of where they are from. You can not have a welfare state and open borders and expect the host nation to survive. Do you think for a minute that people would be clamoring to get into the US if we didn't have a welfare state? 76% of all households led by a legal immigrant with children is receiving welfare (from Medicaid, food stamps, housing, etc.). 51% of all immigrant households with no children are receiving welfare. Is it because they are lazy? I don't make that assertion. And the facts exist, see USA Today from 9/2015: http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation/2015/09/01/immigrant-welfare-use-report/71517072/ The welfare system needs to be dismantled. So, if one party is to stand for the Constitution, the hard facts remain, you either educate this voting block on what America is about or end up with a one party solution that is managing a huge socialist state.

Indeed. The same amount of delegates, and some major momentum to go with him into the upcoming primaries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know how people can still defend Trump when 60% of his retweets (praising him) are from accounts which are blatantly racist and supremacist. Also, the accounts of his supporters attacking Latinos and literally doing the sieg heil should be enough of a clue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
