    CHEESECAKE FACTORY, HALLMARK, DISNEY, AND OTHERS NOW PUSHING AMNESTY

    CHEESECAKE FACTORY, HALLMARK, DISNEY, AND OTHERS NOW PUSHING AMNESTY

    BY SFC DRAKE
    ON SEP 23, 2014





    Officials representing over 100 corporate interests issued a letter to Rep. John Boehner (R-Ohio) and Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) demanding the legalization of 11 million illegal aliens and increased legal immigration through the creation of new visa programs. As these companies put it in their letter:

    W]e strongly support efforts to bolster the availability of a workforce at all skills levels, through a separate visa program as well as by creating a path to legal status for those already here.

    The companies include well-known names like Hallmark Cards, Disney, CVS, the Cheesecake Factory, American Airlines, Wendy’s, McDonald’s, the Olive Garden, Red Lobster, Coca-Cola, T-Mobile, AT&T, UPS, Rubbermaid, and McCormick spices — just to name a few examples.

    These companies cite a recent Congressional Budget Office report, arguing that the Senate bill would grow the economy. They conveniently left out the CBO estimate that even though the amnesty might make the economy larger, it would simultaneously make American workers poorer by lowering the wages of American workers for a decade or more. The companies claim the bill is an “opportunity to level the playing field for U.S. employers” but it is more of an effort to level the wages of American citizens.

    It is difficult to understand how these companies can feel justified in demanding the importation of cheap labor with a straight face at a time when tens of millions of Americans are unemployed. The number of working-age (16 to 65) native-born Americans who are not working — unemployed or out of the labor market — stood at 57.5 million in the second quarter of 2013. The unemployed population is spread throughout the labor market and includes 25 million with no more than a high school education, 16 million with some education beyond high school, and nine million with at least a bachelor’s degree.

    The letter is available online. The names of the companies pushing to amnesty illegal aliens, double legal immigration, and undermine immigration law enforcement are listed here:

    another way of putting it is the 1 percent want cheap labor and want the middle class to foot the bill as wages get lowered and more Americans loose more jobs

    Its a Win/Win/Win for the super rich while driving more Americans into the poor house

    If it looks/smells/walks/talks like a 1 Percent Coup d'état

    It Is

    There is not any truth any longer in "Buy American, the job you save may be your own." Apathy and procrastination leads to adverse consequences always. How in the world will we ever return to being a nation of "Proudly made in America." Strong leadership backed by millions and millions of voters is the only way left to return to those days, so that leadership does not seem near the horizon.


    The 1% have the money, we need infallible leadership that will not be enticed by the one per center's money. Is that available?

    Welcome To The Oligarchy – US Leads The Developed World In Low Wage Jobs

    Submitted by Tyler Durden on 09/23/2014 22:09 -0400

    Submitted by Mike Krieger of Liberty Blitzkrieg blog,

    In an apparent attempt to advise investors on how they can take advantage of America’s transformation into a neo-feudal oligarchy in a 50-page research report, Morgan Stanley has put together some very interesting charts.. We will be sharing many of them in the next few days but none is more telling and depressing than the one that shows how the U.S. leads the developed world in the share of low wage jobs...



    Of course, this shouldn’t come as any surprise to readers. I have covered the death of America’s middle-class for many years now, most notably in the post from last summer: How Does America’s Middle Class Rank Globally? #27.
    As the middle-class has been destroyed, and the poor placated temporarily by various government benefits, the oligarchy has had free reign to thieve and expand its wealth at a dizzying pace. The Federal Reserve fueled stock market has been a key tool in the process of keeping the 1% silent, as the chart below demonstrates:


    While I can’t say the above is surprising, it certainly seems to confirm my prior contention that the stock market is merely: Food Stamps for the 1%.
    U.S. policy is all about keeping the 99.9% quiet and distracted, while the oligarchs strip-mine the nation. Unfortunately, that strategy is working... for now!

    How many of these companies are foreign owned?

    Shell is owned by Royal Dutch Shell of the Netherlands called KoninklijkeNederlandsche Petroleum Maatschappij.

    T-Mobile is owned by Deutsche Telekom of Germany.

    Univar Owned by London based CVC Capital Partners.

    United Technologies closed factories and moved them to China and Otis elevator to Mexico. They were also fined 75 million for selling China the software for an attack helicopter.

    We know that Western Union has made a fortune on illegals from wire transfer fees for remittances worldwide.

    I think that some of these companies really shouldn't have "standing" to demand anything from the American taxpayer.

    In a rare moment of corporate candor, Alfred P. Sloane said, "The business of business is business." (Sloane was at various times the president, CEO, and chairman of the board of General Motors.)

    Right now, the American people do not have a champion. 'Bamacrats are so busy trying to get the votes of their precious Undocumented Democrats, that they really don't have any interest in protecting American interests.

    Patriots will have to search for potential champions and post and post on forums and social media sites, to let all Americans know that they don't have to roll over for sell out Demos and sell out Repubs.

    How does The Cheescake Factory fit in to this "We really do have to have it all" fantasy of the 1%?

    This is True Fascism that crosses borders and Continents

    That's why the 1 percent wants sovereignty of Nations gone

    That's why the 1 percent wants Borders of Nations gone

    That's why the 1 percent wants Global Citizens erasing citizens in each and every country. That's why the Democrats/RINOs want Amnesty and are using Illegal Aliens to get it

    Once they crack that nut... Its game over for the world... with the exception of the 1 percent

    That's why the Communist Block Television Stations keep pushing Race Wars

    That's why they call everyone Racists... Division... Divide and Concur

    by the way... the 1 percent are the people that want the guns... once they get them... expect governments to rob retirement accounts to the bone as the Communist Block Television Stations force a mega Race war / slaughter to cover their tracks

    That's why this entity wants war with Russia and China... Plunder of Nations/ Plunder of Continents

    G.W. Bush is neck deep; Hitlery Clinton; Bill Clinton; and Barry the Fraud

    That's why they are attacking Iraq/Iran/Syria/Afghanistan and a host of other country's while putting troops on the ground in Africa

    Al-Qaida was formed and armed by the west; ISIS was formed and armed by the west for Division. Sunni's fighting Shiites and now ISIS/ISIL killing Christian's

    The big shebang will be when Barry starts WWIII so that the West's sends off its Christians that will be forced to fight Orthodox Christians; while the Illegal Aliens start a New AmeriKa... they too will be in deep poverty and don't know it

    there will never be a full Amnesty... they want and need Division and will do anything to keep it that way until they have no choice

    Even the bull crap they served up about Joseph Koney and using Drones to look down through the jungle canopy was a tall tail by Hitlery Clinton

    They wanted drones in the air with ground penetrating radar to look for oil/Diamonds/Gold/Palladium and any other precious metal this entity could rob blind from nations

    No global warming for 17 years and 10 months... they are doing everything they can to bring the economy's of the world to a dead stop using Agenda 21 and fake global warming to use the UN as an enforcer for the theft of the century

    It all goes back to Fascism... a group of a couple thousand men and woman that want humanity under their boots
