But Holy Shit. I am a lawyer, made a small fortune in finance, believe in liberal immigration, but my trailer park roots rose to the surface on that one. Watching it….G-d forgive me what I felt and wanted to do.
The first instinct is to flood the room (and the offices of the firm of Cohen and Grigsby) with Zyklon-B … except that that would probably be too humane.
Why Tancredo doesn’t play that tape on the floor of the House — and at every one of his campaign appearances — is utterly beyond me.
Lawyers would change their tune if they were forced to compete with cheap foreign labor. 🙂
You knew this sort of thing goes on but it’s still breath taking to see it for yourself. But if it’s all perfectly legal then no wonder they hold seminars about it.
Welcome to the difference between policy and real-world implementation.
The legislative and most government processes are focused on policy and do a poor job of understanding or addressing how those policies are actually implemented in the real world.
The same bureaucracy that implements H1-B visas in a way that sanctions the behavior outlined in the video is the same one that promises to control illegal immigration by issuing X-class visas to 12 million illegal aliens, can’t issue passports to US citizens to visit Mexico or Candad, and can’t catch illegal aliens who use the same social security number over and over again.
The bureaucracy that enforces the H1-B institutions also “protects” us by searching our shoes when we board an airplane, banning liquids, cigarette lighters and anything sharp, X-raying our luggage, and doing random body cavity searches on old ladies. We willingly go along with those intrusions and inconveniences in the naive assumption that any of that stuff actually deters terrorists and that the bureaucracy is really on top of things.
Bending to political our government has wisely concluded that illegal immigration and terrorism will be stemmed by building a fence along the Mexican border (ignoring the obvious fact that the 9/11 terrorists all came in through airports and came from the Middle East, not Mexico).
Boy Howdy. I feel safer.
