The Weakness of America.

Listening to "Dirty Dubstep mix 09" on Youtube.

1. 23,378,792 Illegal aliens in the United States. Only 600,000 of them are not mexican.

2. The unemployment rate in the United States was last reported at 8.8 percent in March of 2011.

3. The 2010 Census showed the resident population of the United States on April 1, 2010, was 308,745,538.

So.....let me pull out my hand calculator.... the illegal immigrant percentage of our country is 7.5% The percentage would be higher if they were counted in the census. I am assuming that they were not counted in the census to help bolster the opposing side here.

Assumption.
-Every immigrant that is in the united states is looking for a job.
-Every person counted as "unemployed" is looking for a job, because the unemployment rate doesnt count underemployed or those that have been taken off unemployment aid.
-If there were no illegal immigrants holding jobs or looking for jobs, our unemployment rate would go down.
-The difference between the unemployment rate and the percentage of illegal immigrants in our population is 1.3%

Conclusions
-Remove the illegal immigrants that are in the country.
-Remove incentive to hire illegal immigrants with harsher penalties for employers.
-Remove the ease of illegal immigration from our southern border.

I stress "illegal" here, because I have no problem with immigration if it is done legally. Apply for a work visa, apply for citizen ship. If/when it is granted, welcome aboard.

Then we beg the question of how? How do we do the things that I have concluded. This is the part where I write what I think, and the part that will get thrown back in my face if I ever run for public office. Probably taken out of context.

Its a three step process. Border, employment, deportation.

Contain the border. We have 2 different forces that protect us at home, we have the border patrol that is supposed to secure the border, and we have the national gaurd. De-civilianize the national guard by absorbing them into the national guard, move their funding over and everything, and have the national guard patrol the border. In addition to this we need to erect posts, fence, and practically a DMZ for a 1/2 mile into mexico. Issue fair warning to the mexican president that those found crossing the border will be dealt with deadly force. Just like if an unauthorized civilian try to get into an American base in Iraq, they get shot. The border's total length is 3,169 km (1,969 miles), according to figures given by the International Boundary and Water Commission. The Army National Guard now has 403,616 service members. Currently, the U.S. Border Patrol employs over 20,200 agents (as of the end of fiscal year 2009)4. It wouldn't be that much to take on and it would just be another assigned duty of the National Guard. Once the border is taken seriously and we have extremely limited the flow of illegal immigration you are able to deal with the problems at home.
Create extremely harsh penalties for hiring illegal immigrants. It is easy to check citizenship of the person that you are hiring by using the E-Verify system. If you are found to have hired someone without using the system and they are illegal then your business will be seized by the government and sold, just like if you don't pay your car bill. The car is seized and sold to the highest bidder. The money made from the sale would go towards any debt you owed and the rest would go towards border protection. If you still owe money and cant pay then you are enlisted in the US military or you go to jail. You will be damn sure that the business will check and double check.
All that is left is then the removal of illegal immigrants. Take the ones already in our possession (jail, prison) and give them to the mexican government to deal with. Then continue to monitor the E-Verify for hits, do citizenship checks along state borders (Carry your ID cards!!) and eventually without adequate jobs the vine will wither. As long as deportation is higher than immigration we will be doing our jobs.

I don't see where any budgetary problems would come in. We already pay for the half million or so National Guard, we pay their salary every month, we need to put them to good use. If there are sections of the border that are becoming problematic, say due to drug Cartels, then deploy the Marines. There is a very handy Camp Pendleton in San Diego California. There is even a few Naval bases in the area in case we need boat support. Perhaps we could save some money by leaving Libya, Iraq and Afghanistan alone.

One of the many things i would do if i were King of America.

$$ or lack there off

So i hear that the government ie congress cannot agree on a budget. Due to their lack of ability to come to an agreement they are halting all nonessential goverment. This so happens to include the military. Soo i will not be receiving pay until they can pull their heads out of their asses and come to an agreement.

But did you know that congressmembers and their aides will recieve pay. Lets look at the payscale here.

The current salary for rank-and-file members of the House and Senate is $168,000 per year. The Leaders get $186,600, the Speaker of the House gets $215,700.

Here is the paychart for the military for every rank in every branch.
http://www.navycs.com/2011-military-pay-chart.html

From this chart you would need to be an O9, thats a 3 star general with over 20 years of service obviously to make the equivalent of someone in congress. At the federal level there are 100 senators and 435 representatives. An O10, a 4 star General with over THIRTY years in the military makes $206112 a year, That is still less the Speaker of the House. These are men like Gen McChrystal, one of the joint cheifs of staff to the president and Commanded the war effort in Afghanistan.

A member of congress in his first year of his first term makes 168 thousand dollars a year.
A member of the military in his first year of his first enlistment makes 17k a year.
An officer of the military in his first year of his first commission makes 33k a year.

You see the problem here? What these men and women do to the country by letting it shut down, doesn't affect them. They dont have to worry about their paychecks or feeding their wives or children.

This is appauling and I am ashamed to be apart of our military that fights for their freedom to screw us over.
