  1.  Ace Diamonds  That's right. I DO think that unskilled labor is useless. China has billions of them. India too! One tractor can do the work of 20 men. It's not the "system" that's the problem. It's creeping socialism. It's Marxism and leftist and progressive ideas that seduce a poorly educated generation of puppets. In MY OPINION, and only AS I SEE IT.. 1) powerful forces are attempting to steer nations towards a one world government. MANY factions, from the rich, to pacifists, to Communists, want to see this take place. 2) With the fall of the Soviet Union, the next target is the USA. Again, many factions are being used to push this "one world" "save the planet" "think global, act local" plot onto the American people. 3) Trump came along and threw a monkey wrench into all of this. For once, the American public refused to allow the elites, and the media, to choose their winner. 4) A subterfuge of enormous proportions is underway to destroy and undermine our government and its economy, benefitting some, and inflicting misery on the majority. Environmentalists, college students, unions, and the poor are being manipulated to steer the country towards a wrecking of our country, in order to seize power. Trump and his booming economy are taking a back seat towards nonsense issues. FREE Healthcare and FREE college, being just two issues being amplified. There are MANY, MANY more serious and pressing issues which should be in the spotlight. But they don't move the agenda forward. 5) finally, the government knows that a flood of cheap labor will boost growth, help continue the ponzi scheme, extend social security, and in the case of democrats, add to their dwindling voter rolls. That's it! My work is finished here.

  28.  Ace Diamonds  I'm glad to explain that to you. It's because a "basic" form is provided, as part of a better functioning society. The emphasis being on "basic". So, you see public transportation is provided at very low and subsidized cost by the taxpayer. You ride on the bus. Free K-12 education is provided, and you may attend at little to no cost. However, are these people entitled to a FREE automobile? Are they entitled to FREE college? Why not? And why does the poor and needy have to settle for a Ford or Chevy? While the "greedy" rich drive Mercedes and BMW? Why must my plumber salary be taxed to pay for someone to attend college to earn TWICE what I do, and make millions more over a lifetime, than I do? Why should ANYONE, rich or poor, have their money confiscated to pay for MORE THAN THE BASIC? In other words.. The bus, and a high school education? Now.. The top ONE PERCENT of taxpayers pay FORTY PERCENT OF ALL INCOME TAX collected. The top TEN PERCENT of income tax collected results in SEVENTY PERCENT of all the money, collected. The remaining 30% comes from the middle class. None from the poor. I may have to pay for a safety net, but not a lounge chair. I may have to pay for your vaccination, but not your heart transplant. High school, but not your masters degree. That is an "INVESTMENT" that YOU make, that results in a higher income than ME, and as such, YOU must shoulder the cost and not me. Public education IS PAID as a cost of running an orderly society. Finally, they come here from SOCIALIST countries. Very few from Germany, France, Japan, and many from Mexico, Guatemala, and Honduras.

  30.  Ace Diamonds  Yes, it is the politicians job. But, it's MY job to vote them OUT if they don't spend MY money, in a manner that I prioritize. Spending money to make money is INVESTING. Investing is done with a RETURN in mind, and I don't see how handing my money over, to be WASTED on blood sucking leeches, that are looking, not for a HAND UP, but rather a HAND OUT, provides me with a good investment. We have TOO MANY college graduates now, that are unemployed, searching for work, clutching their useless diplomas. Meanwhile, HIGH PAYING jobs in manufacturing, the trades, and health careers are begging for workers. Now think about this... There are TWO kinds of surgery. One is NON elective. The other is by CHOICE. So, you have one that removes a gall bladder (NON elective) and the other to do a face lift, or breast enlargement (elective) Now, since the government PAYS for the first, and NOT the second, costs have SKYROCKETED for those surgeries, meanwhile, those where people pay for BY THEMSELVES, have plummeted. Why? Because when YOU PAY, you choose the best service for the lowest cost. When government pays, the bill gets thrown on the pile. Now, as to your "let the immigrants come" nonsense, any country has the right to meter their growth. Schools, prisons, and hospitals can NOT keep up with an endless flow of new patients, much less ones that DONT PAY. With each TRILLION DOLLARS of debt, our currency is devalued. If we continue down this path, our money becomes worthless. EXACTLY what we are seeing in Russia, Cuba, Venezuela, and other socialist countries, where politicians BUY THEIR WAY INTO POWER with promises of.... FREE. It only works, until the money runs out. In past migrations to the USA, Europeans came bringing SKILLS. Today, immigration only comes bringing poverty, crime, and desperation. Something that we can NO LONGER afford to help finance.
