I’ll tell you how broken the system is: Meg Whitman, one of the richest and smartest business women in America tried to verify her one single domestic employee through this system, and she failed. Think about that. Meg Whitman and a single employee.
So I ask you this: if Meg Whitman cannot successfully hire a staff of one due to the government screwed up system, what chance does Joe’s Landscaping Have of successfully vetting his staff of, say, 50, or whatever? The government has screwed this pooch for 50 years or so.
Ignore #64.
I so agree with you.
In the 1950’s after WWII our immigration system functioned beautifully...an enormous flood of European and other immigrants were vetted and processed into the US. They were checked out for medical issues, criminal background and had to have a legal/financial sponsor here before they could come. A sponsor that would be responsible if they got sick, etc.
the system worked. Why can’t we have that again?
the slang term for these legal immigrants was “ DP’s “—short for displaced persons. They worked hard, learned english, and demanded their kids do well in school...they were more American than Americans!
We have only ourselves to blame for the current mess!
