  1. Joe Biden: U.S. needs ‘constant, unrelenting stream’ of immigrants

    Vice President Joseph R. Biden told a National Association of Manufacturers’ crowd this week that what the United States needed was more, not fewer, immigrants.

    Specifically, he called for a “constant, unrelenting stream” of new immigrants — “not dribbling [but] significant flows,” to bolster the national economy, The Hill reported.

    “We need it badly from a purely — purely economic point of view,” Mr. Biden said, The Hill reported.

    Later, on Twitter, he wrote: “The final thing we need to do together is pass immigration reform … We need it badly. -VP at manufacturing summit,” Newsmax reported.

    Mr. Biden predicted that opening the doors to the White House’s vision of immigration reform, which is heavy on the amnesty, would allow the nation’s gross domestic product numbers to hike by 5.4 percent, or $1.4 trillion, over the next two decades, Newsmax reported. Simultaneously, he predicted that the deficit would drop by $850 billion.

    “That’s real powerful economic reform,” Mr. Biden said.

    His comments come as border patrol agents are appealing to the federal government to help with the thousands of illegal children who have poured across the border in recent days and who are now being temporarily held in three separate military facilities.

    Meanwhile, federal authorities have predicted that the number of children illegally crossing the border without parents this year will hit at 90,000 — up from an average 6,500 over years past.

  2. Well then, we're in good shape! We're getting exactly that right now. Let's see how we feel about “constant, unrelenting stream” of new immigrants 6-12 months out.

    Fact.... they're really just trying to secure the Hispanic vote... AT ALL COSTS... including great harm to the US.
     
  3. Perhaps house honky joe can explain how flooding the country with a bunch of children will help the economy. Maybe we're going to change child labor laws. This guy is so f'n stupid the IQ of the entire country drops every time he opens his mouth.
     
  4. Democrats seem incapable of understanding simple economics. You'd really hope the members of the National Association of Manufacturers would be a tiny bit more sophisticated.

    If Biden were right, Egypt would be an economic powerhouse. Huge, unrelenting population growth. India, Pakistan, Brazil, most of Africa too. Of course, Biden also thinks having the government hiring people to do makework jobs also is the key to economic success.
     
  5. This is an ECO 101 topic and you all failed. Congrats!
     
  6. Please tell us how importing another 20 million illegals will grow the economy. Tell us how a country 17 trillion in debt, with massive under employment across the all races, especially black, will help the low wage worker. Tell us how giving another 20 million illegals free healthcare, free education, free public aid, etc., etc, tell us how this all gets paid for.
    Who you and your idiotic friend Biden are proposing is like a guy with a floundering business saying, what I really need to do is hire more employees. I have nothing for them to do. No real plan as to what more I can offer my customers to grow the business. Haven't a clue as to where new business will come from, and Oh, I'm up to my eyeballs in debt, but hey, I want to hire more people.
    Write it all down like a business plan and show it to us. Oh yeah, Pelosi won't read it anyway. Never mind.
     
  7. The open border policies of Odumbo are another "Cloward & Piven" play to overload and create chaos... When there is enough chaos all around (not just immigration, but including health care, employment, dependence on government for life's basics, national debt, etc...) => followed by Martial Law/State of Emergency!

    That's Odumbo's "fundamental transformation" of America.

    :mad:
     
  8. Wages going to stagnate again due to cheeap cheeeeeeap labor.
     
  9. And there will be TONS of people sucking tit from the social system as there are already waaayyyyy more unemployed's than jobs available. All these immigrants are just going to exacerbate both.
     
  10. Any normal person would consider that a disaster, but it is precisely what the democrats want. More people dependent on government and hence wanting more spending, more spending to be paid for my higher taxes on those who actually pay taces, eg republicans, and bigger government sector with more unionized democrat drones.

    It's completely obvious, yet the republican leadership says nothing.
