.@milo9: why do you think USChamber, WalMart, Tyson Foods, etc. want more #immigration? To increase range of fast food options? #OWS #Occupy

From @milo9 Mon, Oct 28, 2013 at 11:26 pm

@24AheadDotCom I don't want new immigration. You penalize employers and illegal immigration should stabilize @ low levels.

From @Glaivester Tue, Oct 29, 2013 at 7:19 am

.@milo9 @24AheadDotCom We all agree that employers should be penalized. But Senate #CIR bill pardons businesses who hired them in past...

.@milo9 @24AheadDotCom ...and scraps E-Verify program, promising to replace it, IIRC, FIVE YEARS from now.

From @milo9 Tue, Oct 29, 2013 at 12:35 pm

@Glaivester @24AheadDotCom I can live w/ that.

From @milo9 Tue, Oct 29, 2013 at 12:36 pm

@Glaivester @24AheadDotCom Sounds like bull to me.

.@milo9: "current #immigration" is hardly near zero. In addition to ~1 million citizenships, there's http://24ahead.com/n/9601 #occupy #ows

From @milo9 Mon, Oct 28, 2013 at 11:22 pm

@24AheadDotCom I meant new immigration, I thought that went w/o saying.

From @Glaivester Tue, Oct 29, 2013 at 7:29 am

@milo9 @24AheadDotCom 2012 legal immigration 1,031,631 http://t.co/7lkAv6d58a 2012 net illegal immigration 200,000 http://t.co/3OcduW7ScL

From @Glaivester Tue, Oct 29, 2013 at 7:30 am

.@milo9 @24AheadDotCom To be clear, those are the number of people immigrating for 2012 (i.e. new immigration)

From @milo9 Tue, Oct 29, 2013 at 12:40 pm

@Glaivester @24AheadDotCom Wiki charts are refer to legal immigrants. Reducing legal immigration is a separate issue.

From @milo9 Tue, Oct 29, 2013 at 12:45 pm

@Glaivester @24AheadDotCom Per Pew, New illegal immigration has risen .2 million since recession is over (?). Figure is within margin error

From @milo9 Tue, Oct 29, 2013 at 12:46 pm

@Glaivester @24AheadDotCom I'm done w/ this issue for time being.

From @24aheaddotcom Mon, Oct 28, 2013 at 8:20 pm

.@milo9: as a presumed liberal, why are you on the same side as Walmart and opposing the interests of Walmart cashiers? #immigration #occupy

From @milo9 Mon, Oct 28, 2013 at 9:01 pm

@24AheadDotCom I don't understand your point & how immigration & Wall Mart mix. Explain it to me.

From @Glaivester Mon, Oct 28, 2013 at 9:11 pm

.@milo9 @24AheadDotCom Big business wants more unskilled immigrants so there is more competition for jobs. More labor supply = lower wages.

From @milo9 Tue, Oct 29, 2013 at 12:29 pm

@Glaivester @24AheadDotCom Agreed

From @24aheaddotcom Mon, Oct 28, 2013 at 8:06 pm

.@hiltzikm: CBO Dir. Elmendorf: "...would be 0.1% lower in 2023 and 0.5% higher in 2033 under the legislation than under current law"

From @hiltzikm Mon, Oct 28, 2013 at 8:09 pm

.@24AheadDotCom Because influx of lower-wage workers brings the avg down. CBO: doesnt "imply that current US residents would be worse off."

From @milo9 Mon, Oct 28, 2013 at 8:11 pm

@hiltzikm @24AheadDotCom Thanks Hiltzik, the simplest problems seemed to be ignored.

From @Glaivester Mon, Oct 28, 2013 at 8:43 pm

.@milo9 @hiltzikm @24AheadDotCom Don't the CBO numbers assume that enforcement provisions of bill will be honored? Never were in past.

From @milo9 Mon, Oct 28, 2013 at 8:58 pm

@Glaivester @hiltzikm @24AheadDotCom Current immigration is near zero. Why? No jobs. Employers must be punished if they employ undocked.

From @Glaivester Mon, Oct 28, 2013 at 9:12 pm

.@milo9 @hiltzikm @24AheadDotCom Are you advocating punishing employers or saying that they ARE being punished?

From @milo9 Mon, Oct 28, 2013 at 11:20 pm

@Glaivester @hiltzikm @24AheadDotCom Punish employers for breaking the law.

From @Glaivester Tue, Oct 29, 2013 at 6:46 am

.@milo9 @hiltzikm @24AheadDotCom Gang of 8 #CIR bill gives amnesty to EMPLOYERS who hired illegal aliens in past. http://t.co/kamZBbmGSX

From @Glaivester Tue, Oct 29, 2013 at 6:48 am

.@milo9 @hiltzikm @24AheadDotCom Moreover, bill scraps current E-Verify system, promises to replace it - eventually.

From @milo9 Tue, Oct 29, 2013 at 12:34 pm

@Glaivester @hiltzikm @24AheadDotCom That's no good. But I have to verify that. It sounds like a RW meme.

.@DirtyDan64: let's leave side issues behind. If you want to oppose amnesty, work to make @SenLandrieu better using my bio's plan. #tcot

From @DirtyDan64 Fri, Oct 25, 2013 at 6:15 am

@24AheadDotCom @SenLandrieu No need for new plans for immigration…the only plan we need is current Law which you know hasn't been enforced

From @DirtyDan64 Fri, Oct 25, 2013 at 6:18 am

@24AheadDotCom @SenLandrieu w/Fed Govt allowing these "Sanctuary Cities" (Kalifornia/Texas/Arizona) to exist is violation of Law Period !

From @Glaivester Sun, Oct 27, 2013 at 12:40 pm

.@DirtyDan64 I think @24AheadDotCom is referring to his plan to lobby for enforcing current law. http://t.co/oi9c5Jo56A

From @DirtyDan64 Sun, Oct 27, 2013 at 5:00 pm

@Glaivester @24AheadDotCom Enforcing Current Law come frm AG & not gonna happen w/Holder or w/Barry in WH. Will just have to wait a few Yrs

From @Glaivester Sun, Oct 27, 2013 at 7:09 pm

.@DirtyDan64 @24AheadDotCom My point is, 24ahead isn't talking about his plan for policy but about his plan for how to lobby Congress.

From @DirtyDan64 Mon, Oct 28, 2013 at 3:34 am

@Glaivester @24AheadDotCom Why need to lobby Congress, Law is the Law folks need to start demanding AG/POTUS/HLS enforce Current Laws...

.@Isabelle_kumar: what I'm getting at is Euro demographic change is *imposed* against the will of many or most citizens of those countries.

From @Isabelle_kumar Thu, Oct 24, 2013 at 6:04 am

@24AheadDotCom Where is your data, many or most against immigration? I believe immigration if well managed makes society richer & succesful.

.@Isabelle_kumar @24AheadDotCom note that even " 58% of those who say they know immigrants well" wanted a crackdown.

@Mark604YVR This has been happening since Ted Kennedy's days of drunkenly stumbling through the Senate Chambers. @Glaivester @24AheadDotCom
