you have no moral objection to slavery but you don't slavery its right. What are the reasons you don't think it's right?explain imperialism please.
I think slavery had a place in history and most likely will again. Over all I have no moral objection to slavery.
I think as long as there are races, you will have racism. Do I think it's right? No I don't. hum don't think thats what you are asking.
I guess a simple answer to your last is no. I do not. Thats not at all what I intenteded in my last post but see why it sounded that way.
But that is just the thing. You just argued FOR immigration. There is nothing more natural that changes the economy than migration of people. It has happened everywhere and for all human history, we move to the best populated areas. Only with cars have we started to move further away from eachother, but even then we are close enough to go to the stores, ect.I am against any artificial changes in the economy. We have seen from the past that it does not work and causes unintended consequences. When you have a boom, you have a bust.
People loved unions back in the day but now all one has to so is look at the costs associated with Unions in the auto business and the sentiment is anti union (unless you're in one). I think it's best to pay someone a fair wage. If their price is too high I'll look elsewhere, if it's too low for the worker he doesn't have to accept.
I agree completely, let the government do something similar to corporations or partnerships (couple forms and poof you are a new legal entity and have full benefits under the law) and then if people want to they can go to a church and get "Married". The whole ceremony thing is way out dated, back when we did not do shit other than sit in the dark and look at stars, sure we needed the distraction of something to do, but now, shit there is so much else.I don't get the reasons each individual has but denying rights to citizens is unconstitutional. Like you said you can't have it both ways. Leave it to the Churches to decide on marriage.
Why because they moved a hundred miles north for a job, because they lived in junk huts and want to make a better life for their families?I am All for deporting Illegals because they are here Illegally and do not deserve to be thrust ahead of others with Amnesty.
lol Legal immigration at a slower "controled" pace yes. Illegal immigration no. I don't think natural is the word to use here. A sudden influx or an overabundance, of people or a product causes instability.But that is just the thing. You just argued FOR immigration.

So with 1.5 million immigrants a year (high estimate I found) means about a .5% increase per year.lol Legal immigration at a slower "controled" pace yes. Illegal immigration no.

Regulated immigration is good. Illegal immigration of 15million plus with amnesty is bad.So with 1.5 million immigrants a year (high estimate I found) means about a .5% increase per year.
And
4,264,141 annual birth rates / or 11,683 daily births vs
2,487,415 annual death rates / or 6,815 daily deaths.
Means about a gain of 5,764,000 and loss of 2,500,000, and total population of around 300 million, means we have a population increase of around 1% per year. Which is good because as we go into the future we shouldn't become a japan (or even what we are facing with baby boomers getting older and no immigration) and have a huge elderly population that is very expensive to the country and less workers there to support them.
Immigration is good for us. The side effects that come with it are issues on our side, if we would legalize drugs that would stop most of the drug related crimes that the few immigrants bring to those communities. And as you know my stance on if we would understand that a high school diploma doesn't cut it anymore if you want to have a good stable career (and not just a job or get lucky in business), we need our citizens to use the systems in place and become specialized.
You're forgetting it's not just a yearly thing. The influx builds each year and saturates the already saturated fields the illegals work. Qualified Mathmeticians, Database Administators and Nurses are not flocking to the US from Mexico.So with 1.5 million immigrants a year (high estimate I found) means about a .5% increase per year.

My egg fu is superior to your griffin technique.
good point. I wonder how much power LA gets fromAZ. Too bad it's not the state but the power companies that control the switch.goota love the Ca boycot of Az. hope Ca. can do with 25% less power. I hope Az flips the switch off. Is Ca anti nuke also. mybe Wa. should stop selling them power too.
How am I forgetting it is a yearly thing when I wrote that in almost every sentence? But just like I am not counting on those people leaving, I am also not counting on the people dying coming back, so it is still a 1% population increase per year give or take. And like I think most on this website knows, most of the crime is due to drug trade, which if they would let become legal would wipe most of that out.You're forgetting it's not just a yearly thing.

Except for the crime they commit by being here, making illegals legal, does not stop the crimes they commit or the problems they cause. The only thing it does is encourage more illegals to cross the border. Which causes the lower income ranks to swell even more and the costs associated with the lower income group to swell also.
There was an argument made that even though illegals are in the lower income group and the lower income group is known to receive MORE than they put into the system the illegals themselves somehow don't receive much government assistance. So now that the illegals would now be legal is this argument going to still hold water? I can here the sucking sound of money going down the drain as I type.
I'm sure that is on the welfare application: Are you Mexican? (Note: checking no disqualifies you from welfare)I don't know where I live had a mex pop of about 2% 30 years ago. Now it's closer to 50%. them peeps hump like bunnys. lol and in my part of the world you couldn't get welfare unless your a mex. sorry not enough money for people that actuly put into the system. the welfare system should have a 6 month limit and two years life time. that would stop the wetbacks.
