Illegal immigration is a red herring

immigrationBy Eternal Hope: Illegal immigration is a red herring in this country. It is a red herring that diverts focus from the massive wage suppression, exportation of jobs, and union busting that is taking place on a daily basis around this country. It is a red herring because of the fact that it focuses downward instead of upward. Everybody, for instance, loves to whine about the "illegal invasions" and "broken borders" that are supposedly such a big problem. But nobody talks about the exploitation of American workers by people such as Rite Aid...

And demonizing immigrants is nothing more than a continuation of the repackaged segregation of the Republican party. Segregation, instead of dying a natural death, was revived by the Republican Party by rewording it to make it more palatable to people and by finding people like immigrants and Muslims who it was more acceptable to hate.
