Women and the Illegal Workforce
Women and the Illegal Workforce
Posted July 7th, 2008 at 9.54am in Protect America.
Women are again charging into what was once seen as a realm that was only populated by men—the illegal immigrant workforce. After a recent raid of a factory in Texas, where the majority of those detained were women, the Houston Chronicle published an article discussing this new trend. With heightened border control and visa regulation, many men are finding it harder to come to the U.S. to work and then return home to their families in their native countries. Hence, many are now bringing their families with them. A noticeable increase in smuggling fees has also been cited as a reason that is keeping illegal immigrants here and many continue working illegally hoping to one day be granted amnesty. No longer is there a transient mentality to illegal immigration, rather one of permanence. With that illegal immigrants are now forming their families here in the U.S., raising the issue of birthright citizenship and the question of whether the children of illegal immigrants should be granted U.S. citizenship solely because they were born on American soil.
In a Heritage publication, Making Citizens: The Case for Patriotic Assimilation, Dr. Matthew Spalding discusses the issues that surround the concepts of assimilation and naturalization in the United States. Immigrants have always been welcomed to the U.S. and it was the belief of the Founders that once here they should by made into citizens. However, the process of becoming a citizen was never immediate or without conditions; it was believed that immigrants must be educated in American principles and interact with the current citizens in order to develop an appreciation and knowledge of our country and how it works. Hence, came the concept of the residency requirements, naturalization tests and renunciation of previous allegiances. The growing establishment of illegal immigrant families, mixed with children receiving birthright citizenship, raises hard questions about whether assimilation can work is such an environment.

There is no longer any need for immigrants to assimilate because of the 'PC mandated diversity/multiculturalism' mindset that has been instilled by pressure on our government and institutions by liberal demagogues and advocates. We can't even get our spineless government to declare English as our national language because that could offend some 'minority', nationality or culture. I would argue that though the individual immigrant may not be so much different than those of the past, the difference between then and now is the massive welfare programs we have set up that they can access and the huge network of facilitators that keep them comfortable within the culture of the nation from which they departed.
Illegal aliens are very aware of the smorgasbord of benefits awaiting them in America. That’s why they come. They are also aware of what companies hire illegal aliens in the areas they decide to locate. Advance knowledge is provided ala the multitude of ‘Invader Advocate Groups’ and is an ongoing process once the illegal arrives. The illegal alien advocate network is a coordinated amalgam of groups that aid illegals in getting jobs, assist them in housing, direct them in enrolling their children into our schools, advise them on utilizing our hospitals for their medical care, advise them and aid them in filling out the paperwork to access public benefits such as welfare and food stamp programs. Do you actually think that 20 million plus illegal aliens could come here, blend almost seamlessly into our society and operate effectively and with impunity without a massive network of family ties, ethnic allegiances and a multitude of support groups including foreign consulates on American soil? Think I’m off base? Then think of just this one example: When have you ever heard of a raid on illegal employment locations without an immigration lawyer or a multitude of lawyers (including those from the ACLU) and “immigrant aidâ€Join our efforts to Secure America's Borders and End Illegal Immigration by Joining ALIPAC's E-Mail Alerts network (CLICK HERE)

I have a joke above my desk. It's a rats maze with elderly trying to get through...with their walkers, wheelchairs, IV stands, canes etc. At the end is a couple of people sitting at the desk with Bush's Drug plan....the caption says, "It's not that expensive....remember we only have to pay for the ones who make it this far." And that's pretty much how I see it. Citizens are left struggling through while illegals seem to have an advocate that allows them to skip through the maze and jump right in front of the line.Join our efforts to Secure America's Borders and End Illegal Immigration by Joining ALIPAC's E-Mail Alerts network (CLICK HERE)

LOL....I was just thinking of this story and thought....when's the last time you committed a crime and told the police officer you were breast feeding and they let you go? What guy has committed a crime and said "who's gonna support my wife and kids?" .... and had them let him go? Can't think of a single time that flew well for a citizen.
