Despite the bleak employment picture, congressional leaders and the White House are moving forward with plans to expand the number of foreign guest workers admitted to fill U.S. jobs. Under pressure from some domestic industries and the Mexican government, serious negotiations continue in an effort to add to the legions of foreign guest workers already working in sectors of the economy ranging from high tech, to manufacturing, to construction, to agriculture. “The most amazing thing is that there is not even a hint of embarrassment on the part of American business or our government that millions of Americans are receiving pink slips, while they work feverishly to bring more foreign workers to this country,” said Dan Stein, executive director of the Federation for American Immigration Reform (FAIR). “Many sectors of our economy seemingly believe that access to cheap foreign labor is their right. Meanwhile, the politicians who talk about jobs, jobs, jobs seem to be more than willing to trade jobs for campaign dollars.”

In addition to the disingenuousness of pursuing an expanded guest worker program at the same time that unemployment is growing rapidly, FAIR noted that the rush to move more foreign labor into this country potentially threatens national security. “By their own admission, the new Department of Homeland Security is still feeling its way around as they try to play catch-up on decades of inattention to the connection between immigration and national security,” said Stein. “On top of dealing with the formidable task already before them, a new guest worker program would require significant time, manpower, and money to vet a new influx of workers from dozens of countries.
Make no mistake, based on guidelines of what defines a dysfunctional company, WE DEFINITELY HAVE DYSFUNCTIONAL GOVERNMENTS, at ALL LEVELS. When companies cannot correct their ineptitudes, they eventually accumulate so much waste in either time and/or money that they eventually fail miserably. Our government is well on its way to failing miserably. And if you think it cannot fail, just take a look at the history of the Roman Empire.

Here is a question - What could $87 billion buy? It would solve all the budget crises for every school district in the entire country. It would buy health insurance for 15 years for every American child. It would feed 6 million children who died from hunger in the world for the next seven years.

The number of new government jobs created since 2000 = 721,000 and private sector jobs lost since 2000 = 2,692,000
