Betrayed By Our Government Leaders
It's a sad day in America when American CITIZENS have to compete with illegal immigrants to find a job. In fact it is sickening. The United States' Congress, Senate, Legislature, The White House and the Supreme Court have sold America's CITIZENS into financial ruin and economic slavery.
Unemployed Americans Competing With Immigrant Labor for Unskilled Jobs
Wall Street Journal
December 21, 2008LOS ANGELES — A year ago, a day-laborer center adjacent to a Home Depot here teemed with Latin American immigrants who showed up and found a sure day’s work painting, gardening or hauling.
These days, more than immigrants are packing the Hollywood Community Job Center: Unemployed Americans are joining them. There’s little work for anybody.
“Everybody is coming to look for work,” Rene Jemio, outreach coordinator for the hiring hall, told the Wall Street Journal. “It’s not just your average immigrant anymore; it’s African-Americans and whites, too.”
For the first time in a decade, unskilled immigrants are competing with Americans for work. And evidence is emerging that tens of thousands of Hispanic immigrants are withdrawing from the labor market as U.S. workers crowd them out of potential jobs. At least some of the foreigners are returning home.
“We see competition from more nonimmigrant workers,” says Abel Valenzuela, a professor at the University of California at Los Angeles who studies day laborers. “Employers are also paying less than in previous years,” he says.
In the third quarter of 2008, 71.3 percent of Latino immigrant workers were either employed or actively seeking work, compared with 72.4 percent in the same quarter a year earlier, according to a new study by the Pew Hispanic Center, a nonpartisan research organization. The 1.1-percentage-point drop “marks a substantial decrease in the labor-market participation of Latino immigrants,” says Rakesh Kochhar, the Pew economist who prepared the report.

Woe unto America! America's love for sin has made us weak and vulnerable as a nation. 1.3 million American CITIZENS lost their home in 2007. 1.9 million American CITIZENS lost their job in 2008. And tragically, over one million immigrants illegally enter the United States every year, arrogantly breaking our laws, shaking their fists in our face, daring us to do something about it. They ought to be sent back to their own country, each and every one of them. It's not a matter of race, or of extenuating circumstances; but rather, a matter of American sovereignty. Why send hundreds-of-thousands of U.S. troops overseas, and yet leave the border wide open?
When unemployed American CITIZENS have to compete with illegals to find a job, it is a very sad day in America. It is pure Communism for our government leaders to force tax-payers to pay welfare for illegal immigrants. We are being forced to pay for their food, their children's education, their hospital care, and now even forfeit our jobs to them. Where does this travesty of justice end?
Here's what a Mexican professor said right here in America. The newsmedia didn't care. But just let a white professor say the same thing and see what happens...
"WE HAVE GOT TO ELIMINATE THE GRINGOS"
March 30, 2006
NewsWithViews.com
The words above were spoken by Jose Angel Gutierrez, professor, University of Texas, Arlington and founder of the La Raza Unida political party. His full comment was: "We have an aging white America ... They are dying ...We have got to eliminate the gringo, and what I mean by that is if the worst comes to the worst, we have got to kill him." ...
As Professor Gutierrez is proposing killing gringos, the message from Cienguegos becomes crystal clear. Make no mistake about it and I said it in my last column: millions of illegals are blatantly shoving their lawlessness right in our faces with the backing of cowardly politicians at all levels. The talk all week on cable and radio has been about the November elections and how the Republicans can't afford to alienate the Latino vote. Not about the law, not about the massive destruction to our country from this invasion, just protect their political butts at all costs. Yellow bellied cowards.

Being an American “Citizen” Used to Mean Something
With every passing day, being an American CITIZEN seems to mean less and less. Whatever happened to America's sovereignty?
I called to activate my VISA card the other day and someone who couldn't hardly speak English answered the phone. I knew immediately I was speaking with someone in India. I asked the man if he was in India and he became offended, so I hung up and called VISA management to complain. They said they understood and offered their apologies, but they're not going to change the way they do business. They don't care. Business has become cut-throat nowadays. They'd rather pay someone 25 cents an hour in India than hire an American for $10 an hour. The problem is that these are AMERICAN companies, who enjoy lucrative tax-breaks and make billions of dollars annually IN AMERICA. This is as unethical as it ought to be illegal.
I called the United States Internal Revenue Service [IRS] a few months ago and a Mexican woman answered the phone, speaking complete Spanish. I couldn't understand a word she was saying and only after saying 3-times, "Lady, I speak English," did she stop talking Spanish. Truly, America has gone to hell when the IRS employs illegal immigrants to answer the phone. This is how OUR government treats American CITIZENS nowadays. Shame on them!
American companies are increasingly outsourcing their business operations to third-world foreign countries. The consequences on the American economy have been devastating. It's so bad that unskilled American laborers have to compete with illegal immigrants now to survive. Furthermore, how do acquire job skills (which cost money to obtain) when you can't even pay your bills to survive? Tuition rates are ridiculously overpriced nowadays. The economic problems facing America today are only the beginning of a hellish nightmare coming down the turnpike. We are headed for the same fate as Communist Russia, where 25 million of their people survive on less than $1 per day. That's less than $30 a month to survive on!
We have no one to blame but ourselves for America's woes. American's are arrogantly ignorant, and you can't tell them anything. They listen to morons like Bill O'Reilly at FOX LIES. O'Reilly labels any American CITIZEN who dares even question the illegal War in Iraq, the truth behind the 911 attacks, or the motives of George W. Bush... as Anti-American, unpatriotic or hateful. O'Reilly is of the Devil and is highly paid to obscure the truth. Bill O'Reilly may be sincere, but he is way out in left field. American tax-paying CITIZENS have every right to petition and speak out against crimes being committed by their government. It's called the 1st Amendment Bill, check into it.
America's kids aren't taught in public schools to think for themselves; they're taught to vote, which is the biggest waste of time in America today. A criminal syndicate has taken over America's government at the highest levels. The candidates are chosen, all of whom are affiliated with the occult. Only occult members get elected! Voting means nothing anymore, at least not for U.S. President and other high-rank positions. It's all rigged. The American people need to stop blindly supporting their government, because a bunch of political thug criminals are running this country into the ground. I cannot support our troops while they're killing innocent people in Iraq.
American's ought not tolerate the illegal immigrant issue. Every pastor in America ought to be preaching against this woeful evil in America. The problem is that most people DON'T CARE unless it directly affects them. We'll illegal immigrants bankrupted 84 HOSPITALS in California!!! ...
Illegal Aliens and EMTALA
NewsWithViews.com, March 23, 2005Free medical care has degraded and closed some of America’s finest emergency medical facilities and caused hospital bankruptcies: 84 California hospital are closing their doors forever. Under the Emergency Medical Treatment and Active Labor Act of 1985 (EMTALA), any patient requesting emergency care must be screened and treated until stabilized for discharge or transfer, whether or not insured or “documented” (i.e., legally present in the United States). For example, a woman in labor must remain to deliver her child. Babies born to illegal aliens are called “Anchor Babies” for once they are born, like anchors dropped to keep boats safely in harbor, they pull their illegal alien parents and siblings into lucrative residency. The babies instantly qualify as citizens for welfare benefits, resulting in skyrocketing Medicaid costs and stipends under Supplemental Security Income and Disability Income. Cities such as Los Angeles with large illegal alien populations, high crime, and powerful immigrant gangs are losing their hospitals to the ravages of un-reimbursed care under EMTALA. In Los Angeles, 95% of outstanding homicide warrants are for illegal aliens, likewise for 66% of fugitive felony warrants.
If your church or family owned one of those hospitals, then you'd care; but you probably don't. The same is true of the victims of 911. What if That Were Your Loved Ones on 911? The big problem with America's churches today is that most believers don't care about anybody but themselves. I place myself in the shoes of those victims of 911. That could have been me or my family jumping from the 80th floor of the Trade Towers to my death, to escape the intolerant flames. Anyone with a brain who has looked at all the FACTUAL evidence from 911 KNOWS that the 911 attacks were an inside job.
The Fascist Takeover of America's Banking Institutions
Despite millions of home foreclosures, millions of layoffs and the collapse of America's leading lending institutions; the brokers and bankers walked away with hundreds-of-millions of dollars in bonuses. Hell will be hot!
"Governments that want to take over, undermine our liberties and gain more power always use the fear factor. They did this leading up to the war in Iraq, they do it on foreign policy, now they’re doing it on monetary, economic and financial problems... They do that all the time, that is their technique, always to build a tremendous fear in the hearts of the people. Terrorize the people and say that ‘we are your saviors and we’re the only ones that can take care of it’."

It is not a mere coincidence that the U.S government is getting involved in real estate, the auto industry, et cetera. This is Communism in action, which doesn't work and never has throughout history.
Thugs, Liars and Thieves!
It is tragic. Our government leaders gave $30,000,000,000 to Israel in 2007, and another $1,000,000,000 to Mexico in 2008, while 1.3 million American CITIZENS lost their homes in 2007! This is evil beyond explanation. The War in Iraq, which was based upon a BIG LIE (i.e., the Weapons of Mass Destruction which were never found) is going to cost U.S. tax-paying citizens TRILLIONS...
Our government has already squandered over $1,000,000,000,000 of OUR money on the illegal war in Iraq, in the form of incurred debt for future generations. That money could have bought 4,000,000 American homes valued at $250,000 each. Sadly, our government's highest leaders are criminals, who have betrayed us. They have deliberately allowed tens-of-millions of illegal immigrants to flood into America, because their ultimate goal is a North American Union, which will combine our currencies and economies with Canada and Mexico.
Even Congresswomen Cynthia McKinney accused Washington leaders of deliberately hallowing out the economy, pillaging and stealing trillions of dollars for anti-American agendas. The average American is woefully ignorant, indifferent and arrogantly headed for destruction. America is a sinfully proud nation of fools.
Trillions of taxpayer dollars are missing and unaccounted for; yet, millions of American CITIZENS continue to lose their homes while the government sits back and idly watches the show. It is evil. Our government gives $30,000,000,000 to Israel every year. Uncle Sam gave $1,000,000,000 to Mexico in 2007 and another $1,000,000,000 to warn torn Georgia in 2008. It is blatantly obvious that our government is giving OUR money away to everyone else, while we're going under financially and losing everything we've ever WORKED for. Illegal immigrants cost the U.S. economy BILLIONS of dollars each year, and that BURDEN is placed upon the weary shoulders of American CITIZENS who pay taxes. It a crime. Then to add insult to injury, the U.S. Department of Liars feeds us a bunch of manipulated and distorted statistical data to make us feel better.
And here's the granddaddy whopper insult of them all... President George W. Bush actually offered working families a Stimulus Relief Check for $1,200.00 per family to alleviate their financial woes. What an insult! 1.3 million American CITIZENS lost their home in 2007!!! 1.9 million American CITIZENS lost their jobs in 2008!!! That's just great Mr. Bush... a man gets fired and loses his home... and then you come along to brighten his day with a relief check for $1,200.00??? You've seriously got to be kidding? I'm sure they'd all like to tell Mr. Bush where he can put his Stimulus Relief Check... where the sun don't shine!
The IRS has their own collection department, who are synonymous with Al Capone's criminal thugs. If we don't pay our taxes, they come after us with an iron fist; but they can steal, waste and unconstitutionally give away our money to criminals who aren't even American CITIZENS. It is evil. It has nothing to do with race; it is a matter of honoring the U.S. Constitution and respecting the rights and sovereignty of America's CITIZENS. We are not civilians; we are CITIZENS. It is not by coincidence that an avowed Communist is about to be placed into power as U.S. President in January of 2009. Woe unto America! Communism and the motto, "Land of the Free," cannot coexist. Any concerned citizen who cares about where his taxpayer dollars are being spent KNOWS that we are no longer a free nation. We are slaves to a corrupt, criminal, evil system of overlords who are committed to exploiting America to the uttermost extent to achieve a Totalitarian Global Communist Police State—which includes a North American Union with a unified currency, government control of property, the moral meltdown of America and financial enslavement. Tyranny has come to America.
1.3 million American citizens lost their home in 2007!
533,000 American citizens lost their job in November of 2008!
1.9 Million American citizens lost their job in 2008!
Illegal Immigration is Destroying America!
Obama has promised to give these criminals driver's licenses!
