Legal Job Growth has hit the wall but the illegal underground employment market is growing exponentially.
Even non profits now require their organizers to be bi-lingual.
The AFL/CIO just initiated a lawsuit wherein they represent employERs. They are litigating to unburden corporations of the requirement to hire legal immigrants and citizens. They seek to declare unconstitutional the requirement of a valid social security card after 90 days of employment. The AFL/CIO tells us they are doing it to protect the jobs of citizens because they hope we are as stupid as they think we are. The National Immigrant Association joins them in the lawsuit. The ACLU is their law firm.
It seems the corporations have bought the unions just as the Saudis are buying our media.
Tonight I will listen to the Democrats debate in Spanish. Those without employment listen in stunned silence.
Who organizes working class citizens in this country ?
This is how so called progressive policies (open borders) feed the rise of fascism among those citizens they have abandoned for fresher revenue.
Working class citizens have to demand that our concern for our fellow workers in less developed countries be expressed through protection in our import/export treaties. We have to demand that Mexico, the 10th richest country in the world, institute reform. The US can do this by supporting, with foreign aid, those organizing for human rights in Mexico.
Working class citizens are going to have to organize new associations to protect our jobs, wages and benefits from both outsourcing and the importing of corporate slaves.
We working class citizens seem to have been abandoned by the unions, democratic politicians and our non-profit associations including the tax exempt churches.
