Dunkin' Donuts CEO: Amnesty for Illegals Will 'Stimulate the Economy'
Breitbart ^ | 30 Sep 2014 | Tony Lee

Posted on 10/01/2014 8:54:27 PM PDT by walford

On Monday, Dunkin' Brands CEO Nigel Travis said all of the country's illegal immigrants should be legalized.

In an interview on Fox Business, Travis said that comprehensive amnesty legislation "would bring about 11 million more people into the economy." He claimed it "would be a stimulus" because "there's a lot of people who want to work but can't work legally."

Compare the number of economic refugees in this country here illegally to the number of Americans unemployed. That says it all.

Illegal immigration and the labor surplus has been great for corporate America. Wages are kept flat and workers know that they have to take crap off their employers for low pay and be glad that they have jobs at all.

The elites on both sides of the border benefit at the expense of everyone else.

I have had my last Dunkin Donut.

I just had a new permanent workload added to my job today. No raise. I do tax accounting - and there are well educated people who would be standing in line for my job if I let it happen It’s a buyer’s market.

Well yeah, his economy as they buy donuts and coffee and stand around home depots and such looking for cash under the table while they collect freebies from the taxpayers. It’ll be what’s happening now multiplied by the masses scurrying across the border for the democraps promises.

Well, it is certainly doing wonders for the healthcare business and funeral business, I'll give him that much. How do people with no money stumulate an economy?

I truly hope these open-borders traitors are first in line to get everything from paralyzing enterovirus to ebola.

Me, too. Guess we’re down to Shipley’s. People I know who are U.S. citizens would love to be able to find a job. Time we worried about them first.

A) It ain’t 11 million, it’s probably more like 40 million plus all the chain migration, anchor babies, ISIS, Irish, Canadians, dreamers, and the like, so let’s say 90 million. (B) Mr. Obama is allowing illegal immigrants to enlist in the armed forces, next it’ll be lawyers, doctors, nurses, scientists and who knows what...

its because we grew up to the goal of doing better than our parents, and that meant maybe college, but hard work for sure...education one way or another to a certain point where life was pretty good.

now, we get all these who want to "make good" too but are willing to get paid nothing and put many Americans out of work...

we PAY the taxes...we PAY for healthcare...and we PAY for car registration and insurance...those people don't really do any of those things....

There are thousands if not millions of Americans in the same boat. Those who do have jobs are doing their work and that of those who were laid off and those not hired in the first place — all for no extra pay — and be happy that they have jobs at all.

The stock market has been doing great. The ever-shrinking middle class, not so much.

I understand that there is some kind of government form which is said to be difficult to complete that must be filed at tax time to provide proof of qualification subsidy payment. Hope we who do taxes receive information prior to December 31.

He should have said “There’s a lot of people who want to work but can’t work because of illegals who are taking away jobs from Americans”.
