New documents reveal that the Obama administration has issued roughly 5.5 million work permits to non-citizens without Congressional authorization.
I understand that our unemployment rate is now about "6%"(i think everybody knows that it's much higher) but it still exists, many people are still can't find a job and don't know what to do with their lives.
But instead of giving work to citizens, our president decided to give work to people which aren't citizens and have no right to live in our country... Why?

Lol, no.

Here is a different link: http://www.foxnews.com/politics/201...55-million-work-permits-to-non-citizens-that/

As I read that I have the immediate impression that despite knowing more about immigration than "the American public" mentioned in the article, I still have no idea what the issuance of these permits has to do or doesn't have to do with the Obama admin being on the up and up. Were permits like this issued before Obama? I would be hugely surprised if these are all permits that otherwise wouldn't have been issued under a previous administration--and that presumes obama is even behind this. I bet most of it is status quo for uscis.

Why?

He told us he was going to fundamentally transform the United States of America. I didn't vote for him because I didn't want to see that happen. But enough people did and he's doing it. He didn't like the nation as it existed, he's attained the highest position available and along with it the power to make the changes to reform this nation into one that his father, his mentors, his educators, his friends and his faithful followers believe is preferable. Some analysts say that we will not be able to reverse course once he's finally out of office because the changes he and his band of misfits have made are too systemic in nature.

As a nation we've received that which we asked for. Two terms of it. It's far too late for buyers remorse.

I'm sure your wages aren't too high, are they?

 

[shortylickens]

This isnt a surprise. He was appealing to amnesty citizens when he first ran for office. Now he's making more of them for easy votes. (for future Dems, not himself obviously)

over your head, but I expected that from a liberal.

Or do you actually for once disagree with Obama opening employment flood gates?

The echo chamber continues to resonate it's loud inanity. Same shit, different ODS derangement Sunday.

Wednesday at the Detroit Economic Club, former Gov. Jeb Bush (R-FL) said to “create high, sustained economic growth,” we need to “dramatically expand immigrants that are coming to work.”

Gee... sounds just like his brother. Was George wrong when he did the same thing... Face it, corporations like cheap labor and they do the jobs that American content on cashing in a year's plus worth of unemployment benefits won't do. Pays as much in many cases as just staying home. Continue your CJ.

Looks like 1M of them were students. Those are likely the children of illegals that are currently in our public school system or in college. A large number of them are deferred deportation, which allows them to stay here while their green card is processed. And these are 5.5M since 2009, not a wave of them recently.

 

[theeedude]

So much for Republican states' big plans to become America's go-to places for uneducated cheap labor.

 

[Angry Irishman]

Agree or disagree he shouldn't be skirting around Congress on matters like this....period.

Nearly 1 MILLION border-crossing illegal immigrants have received US work permits during Obama's presidency

More than 470,000 aliens on tourist visas have received the work permits since 2009; another 532,000 went to foreign students. The Obama administration gave more than 156,000 to dependents of guest workers and students, although deferal law prohibits it.

'Inexplicably,' wrote Center for Immigration Studies director of policy studies Jessica Vaughan. is 1,200 new work permits were issued to aliens who were denied asylum, were suspected of using fraudulent documents, were stowaways, or were refused at a port of entry.'

Middle class continues to shrink under Obama.

Obama's solution: Give a million work visas to illegal aliens...

LOL

If an uneducated illegal can do your job, you don't deserve to be in the middle class.

That is dumb. Anyone that works hard at any job should enjoy the middle class be it a landscaper, plumber, carpenter, roofer, harvester, and other jobs that illegals tend to gravitate toward.

Only if the market will bear them earning middle class wages.

Class warfare Democratic Party style. Tax the middle class...

Redistribute that wealth to people that don't work and don't obey the immigration laws.

Tax and shrink the middle class -- just another winning Democratic Party strategy... Works well as long as you assume that the middle class is to stupid to notice....

And if they do notice, just throw some 'white privilege' in their face...

That is not what you originally claimed. You said:

You made a direct value statement on those jobs regardless of the market.

 

[Sonikku]

I'm sure if Republicans disagree with this course of action and feel the president broke the law and abused his executive privileges by allowing this to happen, they will lead by example, make a stand and hold the president accountable by attempting to impeach him, as opposed to just complaining about it.

Yep, jobs that uneducated illegals can do are not middle class jobs, regardless of the market. Is this a controversial statement?

So about those union jobs paying $60k to be a janitor. ...

They aren't free market creations. So don't expect free market to create more of them.
