The overwhelming majority of economic punditry and opinion come from salespeople on the purchased payroll, direct and indirect, of the chamber. It is one of the most, check that, it is the most corrupt and abusive enterprise in the history of our nation. They are pulling out a very familiar playbook.
The U.S. Chamber of Commerce consists of a massive multinational DC lobbying group that four consecutive administrations’ have allowed to write the actual language in U.S. trade deals and trade negotiations. Bush, Clinton, Clinton, Bush, Bush, Obama, Obama all gave the U.S. Chamber of Commerce the keys to the U.S. economy, and walked away. The U.S. middle-class was nearly destroyed in the process.
The Chamber is expected to spend millions of dollars ahead of the November elections to help candidates who back free trade, immigration and lower taxes. "
The country’s largest business lobby pleaded with Congress this week to grant legal status to a million illegal immigrants, saying the job market is so hot that the country couldn’t stomach losing them if they are asked to leave.
The U.S. Chamber of Commerce also rejected proposals to cut future immigration levels, saying they “would be devastating to our economy.”
Neil L. Bradley, a longtime GOP staffer on Capitol Hill who is now executive vice president at the chamber, sent a letter to lawmakers who have kick-started a new debate in the House on broad immigration reforms.
GOP leaders are trying to craft a bill that can get majority support by granting permanent legal status to illegal immigrant “Dreamers,” combined with major changes to stiffen enforcement, allow for faster deportations and cut future immigration levels.
Okay, but let’s make sure that the expenses of importing cheap labor are paid for the the lobbyist group, The U. S. Chamber of Commerce. Make the lobbyist group, The U. S. Chamber of Commerce pay for the health care for the families of the imported cheap labor. Make the lobbyist group, The U. S. Chamber of Commerce pay for the education of the families of the imported cheap labor. Make the lobbyist group, The U. S. Chamber of Commerce pay for the welfare of the disenfranchised American citizen workers displaced by the imported cheap labor. And let’s make sure these cheap imported laborers move into the neighborhoods of the lobbying members of The U. S. Chamber of Commerce, and go to the schools their children go to.
So why is it Democrats and the chamber of congress in agreement on more immigration? Maybe Democrats are working for the interests of the CoC.
It is more about follow the money than follow the party.
The cheap labor express will switch sides at the drop of a hat.
They will Don the Republican Hat one day and a Democrat Hat the next day.
The Democrats you see in DC today purchasing politicians were Republicans yesterday.
