Of course once the Democrats import a permanent majority, they can raise the minimum wage to $22 an hour, and there goes that cheap labor. The Chamber of Commerce screw themselves just like the insurance companies did signing onto Obamacare.

That is exactly Dems plan on amnesty, I am with you 100% on that.

Chamber of Commerce also wants SS and Medicare min age raised to ~ 70, but mainly for far future retirees not current ones to try to avoid an election backlash (similar to Ryan scam). Libs see this as off the table completely.

That's a pretty unstable set of goals they have, but my guess has always been that they think delayed the new Americans voting will keep that from happening till they are retired.

They don't care - thanks to the welfare state industrial complex, every additional immigrant is also a consumer with First World purchasing power. This is why Rick Perry had significant support from a grocery store operator and a construction magnate - to the tune of tens of millions of dollars in his PAC.
