B.U.I.R.A / BUIRA aka Bonn Illegal Immigration Reform Act

Overview
BUIRA is a new non-amnesty, non-round-up, rule-of-law immigration bill proposal currently under consideration by select Republicans in the US House of Representatives and Senate.

BUIRA’s 12 major attributes:
1. Permanently solves the issue of illegal immigration within 12 months.

2. Safe, humane, family friendly.

3. Adheres to most current laws as well as the Constitution but gives prosecutorial liency to those who voluntarily repatriate within the set timeframes.

4. Purports to save from $100 to $400 billion annually by reducing the cost impacts of illegal immigration and its outcrops.

5. Is currently supported by 80% of those who are familiar with it, regardless their party associations.

6. Eliminates the need for so called mass “round-ups”.

7. Eliminates the need for a $4 trillion “amnesty” aka path to citizenship scheme that will add to the national debt.

8. Purports to reduces the unemployment rate to about 4-7%.

9. Helps world to understand the US values and maintains the rule-of-law to dissuade others from illegally immigrating.

10. Adheres to Article 4, Section 4 mandate of the US Constitution requiring the federal government to abate (not sanction) foreign invasion.

11. Siphons off 92-96% of more benign classes of illegal aliens to help law enforcement focus on hardened criminals, gangs, and potential and actual terrorists.

12. Focuses on the issue of unlawful immigration only (not the more complicated issued of border security or legal immigration).

12 Ways To Fix America’s Economy

Posted on | September 1, 2010 | No Comments

By Xelan Bonn (Sept 1, 2010) www.xelanbonn.com

After installing the largest economic stimulus package in US history and having it completely fail, President Obama still blames President Bush who has been gone from office for two years. Of course, nobody mentioned that the Congress was controlled by the Democrats for the last two years of the Bush Administration or that only Congress is allowed, by law, to pass new laws and federal spending or tax programs—the policies of which avoided applying remedies to the oncoming economic melt-down that so many had predicted before the Dems took control of our economy then and now.

The simple reality is that the President of the United States is a leader and has to show leadership, which calls for bringing in smart, seasoned, experienced professionals to supplement his understanding of economic markets and how best to apply fixes. When the president fails to accomplish such a fundamental personnel aspect, it then leads to major problems that outcrop into our society, government, and economic realities.

Having complete single party control of both houses and the presidency, Obama has all the tools needed to fix the leaks in the pipes rather than running out onto the lawn and crying that the housekeeper that just left the house two years ago was responsible for breaking the pipes. The president has the wrenches, he just does not know how to use them so instead of facing facts, he cast blame onto others in hopes of not being discovered for his lack of skills, experience, and wisdom. Hence America and Americans suffer.

In the spirit of helping the nation and the president, let us give the American voter and taxpayer some insight on how to quickly remedy our country’s economic and global standing situation.

Here are the 12 fastest ways to turn the economy and job market from a downward spiraling fiasco into a major windfall for American voters, taxpayers, workers, businesses, and investors. And there are no excuses needed or anyone to blame for not doing them—these are all within the power of a presidency operated with true leadership skills.

ONE
Do not raise taxes, instead, cut taxes by 10% across the board from today’s rates for a period of 5 years minimum.

Benefit
This will help stimulate new business as well as restore confidence in the market. Currently, many businesses are afraid to expand until they have certainty as to how their expansion plans will be treated by the government. Tax cuts show the administration is business friendly, thus they build confidence and spur growth in the business community.

TWO
Offer tax incentives to employers who will train and educate US citizens (basically, help employers pay 70% of the cost of training new hires in job skills, up to a cap of about $7,500 per employee).

Benefit
This will return incentives to employers to hire and train their own work forces from the existing labor pool of Americans rather than encourage the constant importation of foreign labor and dependence on such. HI-B visa programs and legal immigration can be dramatically reduced, which in turn helps restore the US labor market to equilibrium, offering workers the opportunity to increase their wages and standard of living through normal supply and demand swings. Currently, the mass importation of foreign labor artificially depresses wages across the board for all workers and lowers the nation’s collective standard of living. Additionally, many willing workers who lack experience would be given opportunities to enter new jobs and opportunties because employers would be willing to invest in them instead of using the current “replacement” mentality that requires all employees already be skilled and trained before being hired.

THREE
Give employers a one time tax rebate of $3,500 for every new employee they hire over the next 12 months if they keep the new hire on payroll for at least 8 months (full time).

Benefit
This will spur immediate action in the job market and give employers added incentive to begin hiring and expanding, thus helping to kick start the economic recovery. Currently most employers are concerned that the new healthcare law will cost them as much as $3,500 per employee so offsetting this concern for at least one year helps them to reconsider hiring new employees.

FOUR
Enact the Bonn Illegal Immigration Reform Act (BUIRA) and companion Mexicore bill proposal.

Benefit
This will free up millions of high paying jobs for US citizens and legal immigrants and restore balance back to the supply side of the labor market so that wages can once again begin to rise and keep up with the cost of living, thus raising the standard of living for all Americans. BUIRA saves taxpayers up to $400 billion a year by removing the cost associated at the local, state, and federal levels with caring for and policiing illegal immigrants. These savings can be used to reduce federal budgets and pay down the national debt (but because illegal immigrants will no longer be impacting the system, US citizens and legal immigrants will not feel significant effects in budget changes).

FIVE
Cut federal spending to a level of 10% below federal revenues as a mandate for 25 years. Require that the 10% surplus be used strictly to pay down all current national debt until it is paid in full. This can easily be achieved by cutting unneeded social programs, government waste and fraud, bloated defense budgets, and other aspects of unneeded spending without dramatically impacting the nation or citizenry.

Benefit
By diverting 10 percent of all federal revenues toward the national debt, many benefits are obtained. First, it shows the world we are concerned about our debt and forthright about taking positive actions to abate it. This will dramatically boost confidence in world investment markets and ensure the US dollar remains a strong reserve currency for the world, hence Americans. Secondly, it cuts down on spending and the size of government over-all, making it have to do more with less. This forces all government to rethink how it does business and to target fraud and abuse aggressively, thus helping to maximize spending and value for taxpayers. Third, it reduces the debt year by year, which in turn, frees up interest payments that would otherwise go to foreign nations. Such interest savings can also be used to help accelerate the pay down of the debt. The goal of reducing the debt to a level not exceeding 15% of GDP should be a permanent law and goal for the US government because it will help restore a sense of financial discipline that is needed in modern government.

SIX
Repeal the Obama healthcare bill.

Benefit
The government and taxpayers simply cannot afford to take on such a massive entitlement program given that we cannot pay for the unfunded liabilities of Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid as we speak. Killing the current law and installing a new one that is more cost helpful to all Americans, and cost reducing for healthcare overall, is what is needed.

Some estimates indicate the average taxpayer will have to pay over $3,000 a year more than they pay now in order to supplement those without healthcare. This will be a dramatic drain on our economy because it will siphon off needed discretionary spending capabilities of consumers who run 70% of our consumer based economy. Instead, we need to invoke a new, common sense healthcare bill that encourages competitive forces and pricing while giving consumers freedom of choice, not unconstitutional mandates.

SEVEN
Install fair trade. Require any country trading with the US to allow, dollar for dollar, US products into their country for sale. Any country refusing to abide in this new policy should then be dramatically tariffed until we reach import and export equilibrium or completely remove such trading partners from the system.

Benefit
By restoring our trade policies to ensure fair play for American goods and services, we then ensure American jobs and higher standards of living for all Americans. American workers cannot compete with Third World workers who make $1 an hour and pay little or no taxes because their countries have little or no investments in infrastructure or their environments or social systems like First World countries do, thus they do not play on a level playing field with Americans. The only way to ensure American workers and standards of living reverse the downward trend and move higher is to begin reinstalling trade tariffs that protect US workers and encourage more robust trading among ourselves domestically and with equal partners in the First World. American can sustain over 85% of its economy by trading domestically amongst itself under such a system. By keeping more US dollars at home, more wealth remains on US soil and is thus better able to reinvest in American enterprise while more dollars turn inside the economy and generate more tax revenues that can be used to a variety of needed aspects (rebuilding key infrastructure, paying down debts, etc.).

EIGHT
Re-classify the tax code to indentify four major types of businesses and their respective taxation.

Class 1 businesses would be companies that use 90% or more domestic labor (US citizens or legal immigrants) in all their value added enterprises. They would be taxed at the lowest corporate rate.

Class 2 businesses would be companies that sell 90% or more of their value added goods and services to foreign markets while employing 50% or more US workers. They would be taxed and second lowest corporate rate.

Class 3 businesses would be companies who are transnational in nature and utilize less than 90% US workers as employees in their core businesses or combined offshore subsidiaries, and sell more than 10% of their outputs to US markets. They would pay the highest tax rate.

Class 4 businesses would be any business with less than 50% US workers, regardless of where they operate. If they operate on US soil, they would pay the highest tax rate plus a premium added tax equal to 10% additional on all taxes paid.

Benefit
Such a system will reward companies who use American workers and penalize those who do not. This encourages US companies to quit offshoring and outsourcing while helping raise the over-all standard of living for all Americans through higher levels of higher paid employment. It also rebuilds American enterprise and investment opportunities, encouraging investments to benefit America rather than foreign nations (many of whom are enemies, such as China).

NINE
Investors who invest in Class 1, US companies should be tax exempt from such capital gains. Investors who invest in Class 2 companies should pay a standard capital gains tax. Investors who invest in Class 3 and 4 companies should pay the highest capital gains tax.

Benefit
Such critical capital gains (investment tax) law changes will encourage American ownership and entrepreneurialism here at home and ensure Americans have a vested interest in American companies over those of foreign or transnational ones. This helps encourage strength in US companies while helping improve the political spectrum and its funding realities—instead of transnational companies with no allegiance to America or its Constitution, investors and their respective political dollars will be Americans standing up for American interests in all respects. In this way, the US Constitution and Rights for the individual are better protected while a stronger American loyalty value is instilled across the nation’s businesses—most companies and investors will now have a vested interest in the success of America (which is currently contrary to the value systems held by transnational companies, even those who are based in the US).

TEN
Dissolve Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae and disburse all assets and their control to the private industry.

Benefit
This will break up the “too big to fail” quasi-government agencies and secretive monopoly held be private individuals. It will also better stabilize the financial market by spreading risks among varied investment banks and institutions, helping restore the private capital markets to health. American should encourage larger markets with smaller players as opposed to smaller markets with monoplistic players who can harm our financial system if they fail.

ELEVEN
Repeal all laws that originally encouraged “bad loan” issuing to those who are unqualified. Require a 7.5% minimum equity down payment on all residential (primary home) real estate transactions. Require all banks to issue residential (primary home loans) at a rate not to exceed 3% in exchange for bank chartering. Remove all tax incentives for single family home investing (except for renovation, toward turnovers).

Benefit
The idea is to restore health back into the US housing market and encourage homeownership while discouraging frivolity and banking corruption. Additionally, we need to discourage investment speculation in single family homes, which can help to artificially drive up market pricing balloons that can later collapse the market. Limiting the interest on home loans will help bring down the cost of homeownership while encouraging Americans to invest and save using their homeownership as a basic life management and retirement tool.

Removing investment incentives from the single family home market helps to stabilize markets and speculation. By requiring banks to issue low interest loans on single family homes, we also encourage stronger banking integrity and community investment and stewardship—in other words, we put bankers back into the community in such a way that they now become part of the local community and its overall interests instead of cold, distant corporate bureaucracies that see only numbers and profits or losses, not people. Banks must, by default, get more involved with their customers as margins are dropped and there is less room for error. The news system will encourage Americans to save and invest wisely and not take home ownership for granted.

TWLEVE
Take government out of all private business ownership, including companies like GM and AIG.

Benefit
Government has no place running private businesses. Government cannot even run its own house without wasting large sums of money and it is not skilled in running companies for profit—in fact, its skill is on spending only, which is the antithesis to sound business operations. Also, investment in private enterprise such as these companies and others signals nation economic weakness and degrades market confidence because the government projects that private ownership is incapable of settling its own house and government must move in as a nanny (because it has created such market conditions to begin with). It also encourages more reckless behavior on the part of other private businesses who may assume they, too, are too big to fail and thus have a government safety net to fall back on.

Government’s role should be in identifying companies that are too big to fail then breaking them up so that they cannot effectively harm the nation if they do ultimately fail. Government’s role should be in regulating the free market and ensuring its smooth operation, not in participating or competing unfairly in it.

3 Easy Steps To End Illegal Immigration

Posted on | August 31, 2010 | No Comments

By Xelan Bonn (Aug 31, 2010) www.xelanbonn.com

PASS THIS ARTICLE TO ANOTHER VOTER
Permission to copy and paste this article in its entirety is freely given provided the entire article, along with links, website and author are included as shown. Please pass this article to everyone you know who would like to finally see illegal immigration solved, as well as anyone who is concerned about improving national security, reducing the debt, lowering unemployment to about 6% and boosting the economy.

Most Americans would like to see the issue of illegal immigration ended once and for all—it’s been dragging on and off since before 1954 when President Eisenhower tackled the problem decisively (or so he thought).

An overwhelming majority of Americans do not accept the “cop out” that we have to reward law breakers because they do it in mass. Short of the far left minority’s progressive movement that is seeking to dismantle the US Constitution and America so it can be replaced with global government, few people in America are willing to tolerate “amnesty” aka “path to citizenship” schemes as a reward for those who violate our sense of moral and ethical values. They see amnesty as an attack on the foundations of society itself and the “rule-of-law” or law and order. Anarchy is not tolerated well in America but that does not stop radical progressives from selling it by hook or crook.

Well it may surprise many Americans to learn there is a way to permanently end illegal immigration quickly now. And with no mass round-ups and no amnesty! The entire issue can now be cleared up in about 12 months and done so in such a way as to be extremely humane as well as ensure the problem never returns.

Most Americans, at this point, would love to see this issue solved so they can move on to more powerful issues, like jobs and the economy. Ironically, by solving illegal immigration, we also help solve the issue of jobs and the economy but that is not an aspect we will address here (you can find more on that throughout the immigration section at XelanBonn.com).

If you have not read it yet, then you need to see why 80% of voters (who have read it) support the Bonn Unlawful Immigration Reform Act (BUIRA). It’s a just a few pages long and it packs a heck of punch. (You will find the download page below.)

BUIRA is lauded for one big reason, as far as I can tell so far. It’s humane—very humane! It keeps families together and lets them deal with their illegality on their own terms using both a stick and carrot approach to law enforcement. I admit, it’s not perfect, but it does solve the problem and ensure it never comes back again.

And it frees up over $400 billion a year in government spending that can be otherwise used to pay down our out of control budgets and debt. (The fact BUIRA offers so many cross issue benefits, from employment, to economy, to debt reduction, to taxpayer savings, to greatly aiding national security is why it is being lauded as the “magic bullet fix” by many supporters familiar with the issues).

The reader is again encouraged to find other articles about BUIRA and why it is needed at the links below or in the immigration section at XelanBonn.Com. Let’s now turn to what you, as a voter, can do to solve this issue once and for all.

Voters Making A Difference
First and foremost, if you understand how Capitol Hill works and thinks, and you have studied this issue, then you know Congress is not going to leave this alone. It will act sooner or later because that’s what it does when it perceives things need fixing, even when they don’t. Congress makes bills. That’s their job. That’s how they solve things (or so they think). Immigration is a problem, hence a bill will be made or passed soon enough. Of that you can be absolutely sure!

A lot of voters support “attrition” (strong law enforcement to solve the issue) but that’s a waste of time. Congress is not going to wait 5 more years for the problem to take care of itself (especially a problem that’s been waiting on attrition to work for over 56 years). What this means is that the idea of “attrition” or simply enforcing the laws on our books might be a good idea to most of us, but it’s not a bill proposal and therefore, it’s not a solution Congress embraces or will ever embrace. Congress must have a bill to pass—period! There are no other options.

The question is not whether Congress will pass a bill or not but rather, which bill solution will Congress pass. Keep that reality in mind.

Congress also says that rounding up 12 million illegal aliens is impossible, hence the only solution currently before the House right now is one that assures a $4 trillion “amnesty” or “path to citizenship” scheme for law breakers (most of whom have committed at least one felony, contrary to false news reports that say most illegal immigrants are not criminals—facts show some 8.5 million have yet to be prosecuted for their immigration related felonies that include perjury, false citizenship claims, indentity theft, fraud, forgery, and the list goes on ad nauseam). Therefore, if you do not support amnesty, and you do not want to see illegal immigration grow ten times worse once an amnesty is declared (as proven by the 1986 amnesty of about 3 million that has now turned into a 12-24 million size problem), you then need another solution—you need another bill choice—it’s that simple!

The only alternative bill to amnesty is the BUIRA proposal, which is currently in the hands of members of the Senate and House. It ends illegal immigration in about 12 months and saves taxpayers a minimum of $100 billion a year (most comprehensive analysis projects over $400 billion in yearly savings). There is no “amnesty” of any kind involved and there is no need for “mass round-ups.” It works easy as pie and will not net-cost taxpayers a dime.

If you are against amnesty, then by default you must be for BUIRA because again, “attrition” is not a real option (it has not worked yet and supporting attrition is the same as supporting nothing in respect to Congress and its bill making systems). Congress will pass a bill one way or the other so the question is, which bill will they pass? Amnesty or non-amnesty BUIRA? It’s up to you as a voter and up to voters in mass to apply pressure and move the hand of Congress in the right direction.

Assuming you want to help BUIRA pass, you will need to help pressure Congress into supporting it and passing it with grass roots actions. Here are three things you can do to help make that happen.

#1
Contact your Representative and 2 Senators and tell them you want them to support BUIRA, not comprehensive amnesty. And while you are at it, write a letter (e-mails will not be read) to as many other Senators and House members as you can, telling them the same thing. Tell them why you support BUIRA. Keep it one page or less. (Note: members of the House or Senate do not read or respond to e-mails from out of state or out of district voters, as a rule, so if you want to reach them and pressure them, you must either fax them or letter them. It should also be mentioned that only rarely do members read e-mail from their own constituents. Instead, they use aggregating software to compile an overview of what everyone is saying to them in summary fashion. However, letters and faxes have a good chance of being read by more than one member of staff and are handled differently—here, you have a chance of being read so keep that in mind.)

#2
Contact every single grass roots organization that you know that stands against unlawful immigration and ask them to support BUIRA. Send them letters, phone calls, and e-mails. (Note, letters are always the most effective if you have time and stamps).

#3
Contact every single local, regional, and national news outlet and ask them to support BUIRA and run a support news story on BUIRA. Inside their respective articles on border security or immigration, copy and paste the message below (or write your own message) and insert it into the comments section of related news articles (limit one per news article, please). Write Letters to the Editor supporting BUIRA.

Summary
If enough concerned voters do the three simple steps, other concerned voters will become more aware of BUIRA and they will also pressure Congress and by the time the elections roll over, it could be time for Congress to step in and solve this issue. If you have done your part, Congress should then side with BUIRA and not with Comprehensive Amnesty aka Path To Citizenship reward for breaking our laws and costing us trillions of dollars in community treasure.

Remember, over 70% of all voters support a tough stance on immigration and that is a lot of political power if it can be made to focus on one solution—BUIRA! And also remember, instead of just 70%, when voters read BUIRA the approval rating rises to 80% so if you stand on the side of BUIRA, you stand with the super majority of American taxpayers and voters.

ONE LAST WARNING
If you or your group support or push “attrition”, you are really pushing for amnesty because attrition is not a bill proposal and Congress must have a bill to pass and will do so soon. It’s only choice right now is an amnesty bill. Although you may support attrition, you should hedge your bet by also giving Congress an alternative choice to amnesty. Currently, BUIRA is the best choice and most supported alternative solution there is by the vast majority of voters. The work has already been done to solve the problem in bill proposal format so all that is left is to now push it toward sponsorship and passage into law.

Good grass rooting to you…!

Note: if you will devote just one hour a week to this project, you will help your nation—I guaranteed it. The very least that will be achieved is that Congress will be made aware that both amnesty and mass round-ups are not the only two possible solutions and they will have to answer up instead of “cop out.”
Copy and Paste For You To Use
I strongly support the Bonn Unlawful Immigration Reform Act (BUIRA) bill proposal now being considered by members of the House and Senate. I will support candidates that also support it because it solves a great many problems for our nation rapidly.

We can finally end illegal immigration humanely and without amnesty or mass round-ups within 12 months and save taxpayers over $100 billion a year. Over 80% of voters polled so far support BUIRA so why not our political leaders, too?

Have Cartels Corrupted ICE/DHS?

Posted on | August 30, 2010 | 1 Comment

By Xelan Bonn (Aug 30, 2010) www.xelanbonn.com
Part 4 of 4

Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) has once again shifted its policies toward an almost non-existent enforcement level of immigration laws, as demanded by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Secretary Janet Napolitano. Under the false guise of budget shortfalls and a new policy approach that demands only hardened criminals and terrorists be targeted by the two agencies, we are now seeing an unprecedented level of aid by the federal government toward abetting both actual and potential terrorists, as well as major criminal organizations that make their living by exploiting the agencys’ failures.

By helping fill the streets with millions of illegal aliens who act as false targets that draw off the attention of local, state, and federal law enforcement resources, ICE/DHS are now dramatically helping terrorists and other illegal alien criminals to more easily evade capture while also creating a boon market or opportunity for Mexican Cartels who profit off human trafficking.

ICE/DHS fully understands the question and answer, “What is easier to find, a needle in a haystack, or a needle in a handful of hay?” And yet the agency prefers to fill society with hay rather than make needle finding easier.

Under the current ICE policies, we have seen how the department is routinely committing thousands of criminal violations itself by refusing to properly enforce the law and process the vast majority of illegal aliens who, as statistics have proven, have typically committed one or more felonies but have yet to be prosecuted under either state of federal laws. And we have seen how ICE has covered up such facts and realities, deliberately misleading other government officials, the news, and public by mislabeling most criminal aliens as “benign class”—even when they have evidence crimes have been committed by such aliens.

As we have seen the systematic breaking down and corruption of both ICE and DHS, and the realities that the two agencies have made a dramatic turn toward aiding both terrorists and Mexican mafias in particular by making it easier to perpetrate immigration law infringements and get away with it, we have to ask the question why?

We know that the Mexican human trafficking network system into the United States from Mexico depends on lax border security and lax internal enforcement. We also know that such traffickers are bringing in actual and potential terrorists, as has been revealed through oral exposures of classified documents generated by the NSA, DoD, CIA, and FBI as well as through writen Congressional study reports. And we know that the Mexican mafias are earning at least $20 billion per year from such enterprises—and this is before we consider the issue of drug profits.

With an estimated $50+ billion per year in revenues to play with, the Mexican Cartels now have the ability to reach out and touch, by “silver or lead” anyone in the US government, including, and especially, the Secretary of the Department of Homeland Security and those below her in both DHS and ICE.

Would a detailed investigation into her actions of late and those of ICE and DHS reveal that these agencies have now succumb to the very real threat of “silver or lead” by Mexican Cartels? Has she been bribed? Coerced?

If we simply look at the lowering of standards trend at ICE / DHS and its digressive policies, as well as the systematic tearing down of key aspects in the fighting on border security and illegal immigration, then we can see there is a major cause for concern and reason why voters should be demanding a full investigation.

If the Mexican mafias have penetrated the highest levels of our government in order to help affect such negative immigration and border policies against the very heart of our national security apparatus, then the nightmare of America’s transformation toward a Third World kleptocracy has already begun. And American is doomed.

What is perhaps most saddening reality in all this is that America’s watchdogs, our national journalist corps, have sided with corruption and cover-up rather than sound investigative reporting and safeguarding of our fragile democracy. Nobody has sounded the alarms thus nobody is alerted to the fire so the result is a nation buring down while it occupants all sleep.

If I worked at Fox News, CBS, NBC, ABC, New York Times, LA Times, USA Today, Wall Street Journal, Politico and other major press outlets across the nation, I would be ashamed of myself and I would walk away from the journalist profession altogether because I would know I have sold myself out—and sold Americans and America out. How? By not rallying my fellow workers and demanding the truth be told, demanding the truth be investigated and exposed. I would feel sick to my stomach knowing I was, in part, responsible for aiding in the demise of my own country—but not these people—they have no shame, no pride, no respect for America and freedom and we all have to pay for it. If not, then where are the investigative reports on ICE and DHS at the highest levels? Where is the investigation of the DHS Secretary?

As a consumer, all you can do is not reward them and just swtich off, quit buying, quit subscribing, quit thinking you are dealing with competent reporters and realize they are part of the propaganda machine. And maybe they will get the point and start doing their job again, but don’t hold your breath!

In the mean time, throughout this four part article series, we have shown how ICE / DHS has been working to undermine US national security and is breaking laws left and right each and every day under corrosive anti-American policies. And we have shown how these facts are not being investigated and reported in America’s mainstream press outlets. The question we might ask is who are all the unnamed, current day Joseph Goebbels at our major news outlets and how is it that Americans are continuning to ignore such rountine and mass propaganda by our journalist—people who appear to support state propaganda in a modern America? The inside enemy has taken the game to a new level when the Secretary in charge of domestic national security can rountinely get away with putting all Americans in harms way with deliberate intent and the citizenry is not alarmed in a sustained way so as to require an enraged public and the demand of police investigations.

We are truly a nation in deep trouble, and transition toward a Third World model of unprecedented corruption.

ICE and Mainstream Media Sedition

Posted on | August 29, 2010 | No Comments

Part 3 of 4

As ICE illegally releases tens of thousands of criminal aliens back into society, it also forces an expensive and dangerous compounding of the problem by way of national security and immigration enforcement, aiding enemies of the American people. However, such diabolical realities are only able to happen with the complicity of the mainstream press and most so called reputable journalists.

ICE/DHS uses the false excuse they are taking such actions due to budget constraints while ICE/DHS enjoys one of the largest of all law enforcement and national defense sector budgets in the nation. ICE ignores the fact it has not asked Congress for more budget dollars in order to service its so called shortfalls, thus proving it has no credibility on the issue. In fact, ICE and DHS has not made one justifying statement for their new corrossive immigration policies that has not proven to be an outright misrepresentation or deception of the facts, yet it still persist and is still untested by the media.

In the mean time, ICE continues to aid and abet both alien criminals and potential and real terrorists with both old and new policies and approaches to immigration enforcement.

For one of the rare times in US history, a federal agency charged with protecting Americans is now aiding and abetting harms, crimes, and terrorism on Americans—it is the most shocking reality of government corruption since Nixon’s Watergate and yet the press is giving it a near complete pass.

At root cause are the policies invoked by DHS Secretary Janet Napolitano under the direct control of President Obama. We are now seeing, for the first time in a public forum, the wide scale disintegration of law enforcement and national security done openly toward assisting criminal enterprise. And it is being done very much in the same fashion as in Third World nations like Mexico. America has now degenerated into an openly corrupt society where the rule-of-law is optional. (In part 4 we will examine if that law is actually going to the highest bidder).

However remarkable the facts are, they are mostly going left unrecognized, uninvestigated, and unreported in the main stream press. This reality is helping these federal agencies cover up what appears to be a vast criminal enterprise conducted under the nose of taxpayers and voters.

While the government downplays the new policies, some in the media are even lauding them as being merely benign or overdue actions in the everyday operations of any sensible law enforcement agency—completely overlooking the criminal law violations involved by the agency and top personnel. Such incompetent news gathering and reporting is what has helped to allow such an agency like DHS/ICE to fall apart in the first place because Americans have not been sufficiently awakened to the true underlying facts and issues or their ramifications.

We are now witnessing the very disintegration of law and order in America caused not by an American populace uprising, but by the very federal government itself who violates our laws by choosing the laws it will and will not enforce. And the government is aided and abetted by an incompetent mainstream journalist community across the ranks of America as if they were seeking to aid some form of foreign invasion or sedition on America. It is simply outrageous and mind boggling.

The problem with saturating the United States with 100 million or more illegal aliens from Third World countries with the aid of US law enforcement is that America, must, under the rules of human nature and social systems, begin to adopt Third World cultures, systems and practices as it own culture is supplanted by the major influx of foreigners—foreigners who more easily accept and embrace Third World politics of corruption. This is to say nothing of the other negative impacts to the nation, such as environmental and infrastruture impacts, draining of the tax base, and skyrocketing unemployment, filling a nation with the uneducated who typically remain uneducated even after being in the US for decades (which lowers poltical and voting sophistication and election standards), and so forth.

The degeneration of ethics, moral, and common decency standards by the rapid creation of a new Third World America, again, by the aid of law enforcement agencies such as ICE/DHS, will bring about major changes to the entire landscape of politics and ruling forces across America in the very near future.

One can only imagine the next step in about 5-10 years—the routine assassination of journalist in America who attempt to buck the system or actually do investigative reporting on corrupt government, mafia, or illegal activities that have become commonplace here as they are currently in other Third World countries like Mexico.

As America’s watchdog journalist gave up their duties to bark warning at the American people in the last few years, they also gave up their right to exist free of danger and harms to them and their families as we move forward into a new era of Third World America—one that they helped create.

The soon to be coming new, highly corrupt America where police are routinely bribed, will help usher is an openly corrupt society, culture, and government much like most of the Third World. And the main group we will all have to blame with actually be American journalist themselves who did not alert the public the today’s hard realities—who did not investigate and expose criminal policies and practices in federal agencies such as ICE and DHS.

For now, it seems all Americans can do is just sit back and watch their country disintegrate as it laws become more and more meaningless and devalued by society and law enforcement itself, helped by uncaring and incompetent journalist. Soon we will likely witness major acts of terrorism that will make the 9-11 incident look like child’s play. And such acts of murder will have found their roots in the new and criminal policies of the DHS, ICE, and the White House itself—but most of the blood with be on the hands of a complicit mainstream press corp who refused to fight for the truth and America.

The United States is no longer safe—for the green light and call to terrorist to come to America has just been switched into the “on” position by ICE and DHS! This is truly an ugly yet historical event in American history, and it’s hardly a footnote in the mainstream press!
