But it’s also worth noting that Jeff Sessions just tried to sell it with junk economics, claiming that the Dreamers are taking American jobs. No, they aren’t, even if we leave aside the question of who’s an American. DACA is very much a boon to the rest of the U.S. population, and killing it will make everyone worse off.

To see why, first note that whatever you think about the economics of less-educated immigrants — most of the evidence suggests that they don’t depress wages, but that’s another discussion — none of it applies to DREAMers. . . .
There is no upside whatever to this cruelty, unless you just want to have fewer people with brown skin and Hispanic surnames around. Which is, of course, what this is really all about.

I checked just now: Republicans are Happy Trump ended DACA, but they're less sure about deporting DREAMers. That suggests "illegal alien" is a fluid concept with them.

Trump says Jump. His Supporters ask, How high? In the Trump era, Republicans have been revising their views on right and wrong. Are their moral convictions writ in stone? Apparently not.

What's up with that?

This article spends its first 15 articles telling you an illegal's sob story to soften the blow (ie: prey upon your white guilt).

Quote:A huge factor in Trump-era politics is a sense among Trumptards that they are besieged, socially and culturally. Diffuse forces almost everywhere (Example: Krugman) are conspiring to advance a liberal agenda, and they need someone who won’t just win an election and pass some laws, but someone who will root the conspiracy out at the source, crushing the left. Trump as an aspirational dictator is part of what rightists like and admire about him. They’re not exactly saying he’ll be a good type of dictator. But they are saying they need a fighter, a tough guy, a guy who can battle a rigged system and win.

What happens if Trump doesn't win? 6ixStringJack is counting his chickens before they are hatched: "Trump will be fine. He will also be your next President." 6ix and other Trumptards will become crazier and stupider than they already are if Trump loses.

I would support the opposite concept, beautifully outlined by Heinlein. No voting rights until you've served in the military. IIRC, no citizenship until earned by that service, either. So no holding Federal Public Office, either.
Yeah. I never heard it before. I just thought of it when I was replying to your post. I'd say maybe I shouldn't have said anything to put any ideas in anybodies heads, but I'm sure if I thought of it that somebody else has already thought of it too.
This is the left today. After thinking about it, doesn't it seem exactly like something they would eventually try to push through? I can't tell you how many times I hear that I shouldn't have any opinions since I didn't go to college by lefties who can't get a real job with that liberal arts degree, can't budget and are in debt up to their eyeballs.
I was actually thinking about Starship Troopers when I thought of this idea. In that movie you had basic rights and protections in whatever their government was, but you weren't actually a Citizen with full rights unless you served in the military.
I don't know if I like that idea any better.
I do think that a lot of people are unqualified to vote for a variety of reasons, but who am I to make that distinction? Would I trust anybody else with that job?
I don't agree with any of the wars we've been in during my lifetime, and nobody here would call me anything close to a Liberal. Forcing me to join the military to be able to vote would mean throwing away my own principals to participate in something that is largely a waste of time anyhow.Quote:
Voting, we might even say, is the next to last refuge of the politically impotent. ~Neil Postman, "Amusing Ourselves To Death"
In that instance, I would just forfeit my right to vote rather than serve in the military. The problem is that it wouldn't just end with voting. I'm sure if that were pushed through it wouldn't be long before other rights lost when you're a felon were stripped from people who didn't serve such as the right to bear arms.
The problem with Draft Dodgers and other incompetent Libtards running the military would be resolved.
When only those who have served are allowed to Command and direct the military, the useless wars you whine about would be rare.
The worst SecDef in history was McNamara, and he never served a day in uniform. But he did kill millions, and needlessly. He destroyed the effective military, for decades.
Think about it, instead of rejecting the solution.
