The Presidents and CEO's of some companies, notably Facebook and Starbucks, are left-wing ideologues on social and cultural issues, so they'd be pushing the agenda of open borders even if the bottom line wasn't at stake.
The other corporations opposing President Trump's immigration initiatives aren't motivated by multicultural ideology so much as by their need for cheap foreign labor, be it through mass immigration or through outsourcing. Unfortunately, their lobbyists have the ear of many in the Republican Party, who have short-sightedly allowed immediate financial interests to take precedence over the broader national interest.
“Iran, Iraq, Libya, Somalia, Sudan, Syria and Yemen”
Yeah, the tech industry is going to be hit hard. If “tech industry” refers to the bronze age that is.
Our side has to be more savvy. We let the maniacs frame the discussion, thus masking their real agenda....unabated cheap labor.
The companies are concerned about access to skilled foreign workers and foreign markets.
iran,
iraq,
libya,
somalia,
sudan,
Syria,
yemen
Yeah....sure. Skilled workers and foreign markets. LOL
All I have to do is look at the graffiti on the fences to know where action is required. I don’t need an “All American” beer company owned by people in Belgium to be my moral compass on the issue of immigration.
Hey, CNN, remember when prominent DEMOCRATIC mayors (Seattle, Chicago, Boston), along with the DEMOCRATIC governor of New York, said that CHRISTIANS weren’t welcome in their jurisdictions? Remember how they regretted that the law wouldn’t allow them to ban businesses on the basis of the Christian religious beliefs of the owners? (I am talking about, of course, Chick-Fil-E, on one hand, and Christians in general, on the other, with regard to the issues of abortion and gay marriage).
H1B bump for later....
If a repeal the 17th amendment movement really took off Corporations would be leading the fight against it. They don't want to have to bribe 50 different legislatures. They want one stop shopping for all of their corrupt globalist needs.
I hope Attorney General Sessions sends in agents to each of these corporations and, if they are employing illegals, fine them to the full extent of the law, and if they have broken any penal law throw some of the corporate officers behind bars. Also, let them know they will be periodically monitored to ensure compliance with our immigration and employment laws.
Notice how many of these same companies are pretty much a who’s who on the biggest “legal” IRS tax cheats in the world. The USA federal corporate tax rate is 35% for large companies. But these guys play accounting games to cheat out the IRS and the American people. The accounting games they play are made possible thanks to our international trade deals and their lobbying efforts to change the tax rules so they could cheat legally.
Crony capitalists have been at war with US citizens
(overtly/covertly, varying degrees) for many generations.
It’s taking place now during the information age.
Corporations are really the ones who benefit from Food Stamps too.
Not all criticism of corporations is left-wing kookery.
Funny that we’ve been told that conservatives are for big business interests when it turns out to be liberals.
Those ads were for the employees to give them a sense the company cares deeply about a social issue.
They don’t
AKA the cheap labor express.
They want cheap labor.
They want cheap labor.
The Cheap Labor Express has wanted the loosest immigration enforcement possible since the last amnesty.
They don’t care about the country.
It’s all about the money. That “Statue of Liberty” nonsense is just greedy liberal bull****.
Nothing prevents these companies from Opening up Shops in these Countries, then they can get the cheap labor.
Google in Yemen would be a great Headline!
