Quote from o10maximus:
I'm leaning toward no bailout, but is that what's best for the current state of the economy...just posing the question.
Are the people against it w/out employers?
Are employees aware that no bailout might have impact on their employment (not sure how much spin this is but its mentioned often)?
Here's a question I'm almost embarrassed to mention. I've heard bits and pieces from a few something regarding Oct 12, 2008. Some big financial crash....I don't know. Anyone else hear anything. I did see a site that said on this date US taxes and debt go into balance for the yr.
Zoe Lofgren voted for the bailout. But she also pushed for a massive guest worker bill in the space of the same week You really think she's looking out for American citizen's (the people who pay for this) jobs?
this isnt about saving jobs, they're giving the jobs to foreigners no matter what
it's about fucking the public
House Judiciary Com. to Vote Today on Foreign-Worker Bills
Updated Tuesday, September 23, 2008, 10:00 AM
Public Notice for Markup Given in Dead of Night Yesterday
The House Judiciary Committee will take up two foreign-worker bills today: H.R. 5882, which would add an additional 550,000 permanent green cards; and H.R. 5924, which would add 20,000 additional foreign nurses per year for three years (plus their families). Please contact your U.S. Representative through the Capitol Switchboard (202-224-3121) and ask him/her to do everything possible to stop the passage of these bills. The Committee waited until late last night to give notice for the markup, presumably in an effort to avoid public scrutiny.
H.R. 5882 â "Recapturing Unused Employer-Sponsored Visas"
This legislation is similar to the measure that Sen. Robert Menendez (D-N.J.) is using to hijack debate on E-Verify reauthorization in the Senate. The billâs sponsor, Immigration Subcommittee Chairman Zoe Lofgren (D-Calif), claims it would ârecapture unused employer-sponsored visasâ from as far back as 1991 and then add them to the current numerical cap of 140,000 employer-sponsored visas that are available each year. Current law, however, clearly states that any employer-sponsored visas not used in one year are allocated to the family-preference categories in the following year. That means that there are no âunusedâ visas from past years to ârecapture
