Subj : Trump's Immigration Proposal To : aaron thomas From : Lee Lofaso Date : Sun May 19 2019 22:53:37 Hello Aaron, >What do you all think about Trump's proposal? Dead on arrival. >Anything you like? Dislike? What is there to like? Breaks up families. The family is the basic unit of society. If parents and children cannot stay together, why bother getting married, forming relationships, having kids, etc.? It would be nothing more than individuals competing against each other in a concrete jungle. >I don't like it much because it's a bit off from the type of changes many >people want to see; it doesn't set rules for illegals already here, and it >doesn't fast-track qualified migrants already in the system. Australia uses a merit-based system, which is what Trump wants. White folks get more points than black folks. The more points one has, the better one's chances. That is basically the way it works. >But it is clever enough and better than nothing; it can be viewed as an >initiative, and more detail can be added in the future. Yeah. Right. The devil is in the detail. Always is. >It's great that we're going to declare "No more asylum claims to be made > from >the border," but who are we telling that to? People who care about what the >rules are? Where would we find such people? Why not just come out and say it - "You ain't white enough." If one is from Sweden, room will be made for you. If one is from Cameroon, fuggetaboutit. >The other part that's good, but quirky, is "Skilled workers first." Last I >heard, we do have demand for skilled workers, but what's so bad about >unskilled workers who know how to use doors? People who come here lawfully >with no skills shouldn't feel left out. They can be trained here. How much skill does it take to be white? No matter how hard he tried, Michael Jackson never could quite get it. Except for his white glove, which made him famous. >So it's a bit messy, but I'll take it. Like Devin Nunes said "Democrats >should create their own proposal instead of just criticizing Trump's >proposal." But when will that happen? Obama was too busy for it, house >democrats are too busy for it, maybe people just need to do some classic >pencil whipping. Scott Morrison and his Conservatives just won again! The "unloseable" election was lost by their opponents. This was even more shocking than Hillary Clinton losing to Donald Trump, according to those in Australia. --Lee -- Pork.
