If we deported all the unproductive, there'd be nobody in Congress. Then who'd-WAIT A MINUTE!!!

.....or if your name is Majin? Sounds like a good enough reason to me. After all, why not pour some more grease on an already overlubricated slippery slope?

Amazing.

I agree with you about the illegals.

Learned this morning from a very good friend, her husband has worked at the same place of employment for over 18 yrs. She was a wreck on the phone. Told me that this coming Nov, they are planning on laying off half of the people in her husband's department. Some sort of aircraft industry. This is not good. So many hard working Americans out of work and no where to turn. Her husband feels he is one that will go, the younger more inexperienced will stay.

She does not know what they will do or how they will make their mortgage payments, that is a very scarey thought to me. No medical, they have to be under the Doctor's care, so not looking good.

As soon as we accept stuff like this then surely someone will propose death boards only on a trial basis though. Who gets to pick who does the choosing?

You have been deemed unproductive. Your flight leaves tomorrow. It's one way to Haiti. Great idea.

The queens of welfare recipients are the CEOs of faltering companies who pay themselves vulgarly high wages off of the backs of investors.

Yes, deport those white collar unproductive thieves!
