Immigration Policy and the Financial Crisis

Well, "We" Elected Them

No, wait. I did not. You other voters did. So why don't you pay for the mess. Unfortunately, I did have some related experience regarding Fannie/Freddie subsidizing housing, lobbying Congress, and supporting preferential loans to recent illegal immigrants.

Some further anecdotal evidence, for what its worth: the offices for Fannie Mae in Maryland make my current office - at a billion dollar+ health insurance corporation - look almost third-world: no extravagance seemed to be spared. Taxpayer subsidies well spent.

Learning from Violence

And on another note: Christians in India are being killed because they are speaking out against slavery. Are we really sure we in America need engineers/IT workers so desperately that we want to import such extremism? (I love using the word extremism these days - it has such a nice ring to it when applied in different contexts, don't you think?)
