Illegal Immigration – The Hegelian Dialectic in Action

2 Comments

Migrant Crossing Sign The Hegelian Dialectic, simply defined, is the process by which a problem is created in order for a pre-determined solution to be implemented. This pre-determined solution is intended to advance an agenda, also pre-determined, that people might not normally go along with. For a more detailed definition, click here.

In the light of this definition, let’s look at illegal immigration. The borders are open, and people are screaming for border enforcement. Hmmm…. The obvious reasons a corrupt government would have for not enforcing existing immigration laws and keeping the Mexican borders wide open are:

  • To help bring about the NAU
  • To destroy the existing American economy in the name of globalization
  • To eliminate the middle class

These are all things that we the people are fighting against, and justifiably so. But what if our justified fight against these things is one that has been manufactured by the very people we are fighting against in this corrupt government in order to promote their agenda?

Here is a not so obvious reason for the Mexican borders to remain wide open:

  • To create such a huge illegal immigration problem that the American people will scream for more border enforcement and stricter movement controls

In the name of border enforcement, which we the people are demanding, it does not take a severe stretch of the imagination to understand that the same techniques developed to enforce border controls can and will be used against the American people themselves.

So there you have it – the Hegelian Dialectic in action. Create a huge illegal immigration problem to get the people to demand a solution, develop techniques to control the population as a solution to the problem, then eventually use these same techniques against the people who demanded they be created in the first place. Brilliant.

Time to step out of the Hegelian Dialectic.

Unemployment Numbers/A study in Fuzzy Math

Leave a comment

While seeking to verify the accuracy, or at least the source of the latest Unemployment Figures, I found this:

November 3, 2006 These Strange Employment Numbers

Each month’s employment report grows increasingly bizarre. First, the government suddenly discovered 800,000 Americans who were employed yet the Feds somehow missed them. The details on that still haven’t been released.

Today we’re told that the nonfarm payroll number for August was revised higher by 42,000. The number for September was adjusted higher by 139,000. Plus, the economy added 132,000 new jobs last month. Add it all up, and the unemployment rate for October is now down to 4.415% which is lower than it was eight years ago.

I’m not sure why anyone pays attention to these numbers. I don’t see any value in them. 

There is no need to verify the accuracy of the numbers. It is a lot like trying to get yesterday’s meringue to stand up straight.

Sound familiar? Of course it does.

This is an exercise that is repeated every month:

  • Publish whatever is necessary to support the current talking points.
  • Revise all the numbers a week later, supposedly to reflect reality.
  • If they are worse, publish on page nineteen, or not at all.
  • If they are better, “hold the presses!” – page one – banner headline.

When you see the next batch of fuzzy math, ask yourself a few questions:

  • Does this include the people whose claims have run out?
  • The number who were refused benefits?
  • The number who get reduced benefits?
  • The number who were replaced by illegal immigrants?
  • If these figures are based on IRS Form 941 (Employer’s Quarterly Federal Tax Return), where is the need to revise them next week?
  • Better yet, ask the Bureau of Labor Statistics. Your elected representative should be able to put you in touch. Maybe not.

Congressional Hispanic Caucus/ Scaled Down Amnesty Plan

Leave a comment

By Eunice Moscoso | Monday, February 11, 2008, 02:19 PMHouse Democrats are crafting a “scaled-down” immigration reform measure despite the political minefields that surround the issue, the Roll Call newspaper reported Monday.It says that Hispanic members — including Rep. Joe Baca — are seeking five-year visas for illegal immigrants who pay fines and pass criminal background checks. Baca, a California Democrat chairs the Congressional Hispanic Caucus.Baca said the prospects for a compromise package were discussed in high-level meetings that included Speaker Nancy Pelosi, Democratic Caucus Chairman Rahm Emanuel, and Rep. Zoe Lofgren, who chairs a key immigration subcommittee, Roll Call said.

The paper added: “It’s unclear if the behind-the-scenes discussions will actually result in a bill coming to the floor, but Democrats say drafts of legislation already have been written and are being vetted behind the scenes.
