Why is the Chamber Endorsing Democrats?

Why wouldn't they?

[kabar]

Both parties are owned by their corporate paymasters. The Dems offer amnesty, tripling legal immigration to over 33 million over a decade, and doubling the guest worker programs to 1.4 million annually. A surplus of labor depresses wages and increases the bottom line.

[RetiredTexasVet]

Bingo, you are right on. Right now, the big corporation managers and directors are gutting the corporations with stock buy backs with borrowed money (and it is their stock that is being bought back a record high prices), reducing or eliminating capital and research expenditures, and eliminating competition by buying competitors.

[bray]

They call it the Chamber of Commies here.

Pray America wakes up

[bonehead4freedom]

And increased HB-1 vistas! It’s all about Replacement Americans working for third world wages! What about the native born Americans? F#@&* them!

[Viennacon]

BECAUSE THEY ARE DEMOCRATS!

[ConservingFreedom]

What is it with these “business” types who can’t see beyond the next quarter, who can’t see that cheap imported labor today will bring expenses of its own and a hostile environment tomorrow?

They think if they get rich enough now, they can ride out the societal collapse.

Cheap Illegal labor

Chamber wants cheap labor, especially those in hotel and
restaurant industry

[THUNDER ROAD]

The U.S. Chamber of Commerce has been
the cause of more harm to this Country
for the past twenty years or so than most
people even realize !

[Iscool]

They can no longer tell the difference between the Parties either...

[The_Reader_David]

What is it is that they are men without honor, and do not need to see past the next quarter, or at least not past the next fiscal year, because they no longer work for their shareholders, but work for themselves -- executive compensation bears very little, if any, relationship to corporate performance, and even when it does, if they can juice the bottom line with a bit of tax-payer largess, or by using state power to crush and absorb a competitor, their bonuses will leave them set for life even if the company they run collapses two years hence.

As I have repeatedly said, we live in the Era of Bad Stewards, when everyone in a fiduciary position has concluded their position exists not to serve those whose good or goods they are in theory paid to look after, but to enrich themselves. This applies to corporate CEO and CFOs, legislators, government bureaucrats, university presidents, and even cops -- though it is not primarily self-enrichment that the corruption of honor and fiduciary responsibility leads to in this last case, but the crimes committed under color of law in "defense" of the authority, real and purported, of the police.

CORRECTION:

Chamber of^CroneyCommerce

[FlingWingFlyer]

They’ve been infiltrated by commie lib ‘RATS and are now just another tentacle of the DNC.

[TBP]

Because the Big Government politicians (Democrats and RINOS) will give them what they want: cheap labor and handouts.

[Jane Long]

If the CoC endorses Henry Cuellar (Tex.) as someone who “will help produce sustained economic growth, help create jobs, and get our country back on track” - yet is THE biggest Amnesty and 0bolaCare pimp in the state - then the CoC is completely and finally finished, to me.

[jmaroneps37]

Because amnesty is more important to them than the continued life of America.
