I'm flumoxed.

I can actually "understand" why the Republicans are supporting this amnesty / guest slave idea... because, unfortunately, there is a "profit above all else" element of the GOP. After all, the economy should just go up, up, up. Right?

However, I really can't believe that the Democrats don't see this for what it is: the creation of an officially sanctioned underclass, and imported sweatshop labor. Which goes against everything they *claim* to stand for. Like "sticking up for the poorer Americans'... which we all know is wholy jeapordised by these artificially depresed wages, and competition for services, etc. And where are the black democratic leaders?

Seriously, what gives?
