Operation Wetback 13 million sent home! Three presidents did it
I got this in an email, so I checked it out. Operation wetback did deport a lot of illegals, but the numbers are up to debate. I did find these numbers on snopes. [link to www.snopes.com] That would seam to be the high side of reports, but I think if you look at the numbers before operation wetback, you will see the low side reports were just really unlikely.
What did
Rep. Hoover, Dem. Truman, and Rep. Eisenhower have in common?

Here is something that should be of
great interest for you to pass around.
I didn't know of this
until it was pointed out to me.

Back during The Great Depression, President Herbert
Hoover ordered the
deportation of ALL
illegal aliens in order to make jobs available to
American
citizens that desperately needed
work..

Harry
Truman deported over two million Illegal's after
WWII to create jobs
for returning veterans.

And then again in 1954, President Dwight
Eisenhower deported 13 million
Mexican Nationals! The
program was called 'Operation
Wetback'. It was
done so WWII and Korean
Veterans would have a better chance at jobs.
It took 2 Years, but
they deported them!

Now...if they could deport the illegal's
back then - they could sure do it today.

Don't forget to
pay your taxes...
12
million Illegal
Aliens are depending on you!

It's better than no job! If people had any pride, they wouldn't sit on their asses and collect welfare. That is how the human spirit works when we don't have a welfare state to suck the pride out of us.

Is this supposed to be sarcastic? I don't understand why anyone without a job would not take a job for $7.75 an hour requiring a person to do physical labor for 8 hours a day. When did everyone decide that they were entitled to a $100,000 a year job?

It is time for american's to stop complaining.....get up, get dressed and work.....

No it's not, and that's more of a problem with this country than the illegals sucking the welfare state dry.

There is nothing fulfilling about a minimum wage job that works you 8+ hours a day, just so you can have the basic necessities of life. Why are people still trying to justify what basically amounts to slave labor?

Unless you are running your own business, and barely scraping by, you get absolutely dick out of busting your ass for a shit paycheck, that is taxed to hell and back.

The only way I would ever settle for flipping burgers or whatever other menial jobs you can think of, is if someone else's life depended on me. If I made the choice of bringing a kid in to this world, I would do whatever I had to, to provide for them. Other than that, I see ZERO justification for taking any job that breaks you mentally, and spiritually, just so you can eat, and have a place to sleep.

I really have to laugh when people insinuate that lazy americans/ welfare recepients would be happy to take a hard physical job that pays $7.50/hr .


We are living in a nation where millions of people are willing to just walk away from their own homes , and not pay their mortages because these people made the bad decision of buying a home they couldnt afford.

and you think these types of people have some form of reputable integrity ? LOL.....

yeah, I bet these people cant wait to get that $7.50 an hr job. LOL.

They're not supposed to work, that's the point. They don't want a useful workforce that is productive. Maybe if people were trained instead of indoctrinated in their 12 years of school, for useful jobs that were beneficial to society and bettering the nation, maybe they would be able to work those kind of jobs. Instead they're mostly all qualified to be Walmart greeters, and who is going to go stand around Walmart dealing with the scourge of humanity for eight hours a day, when they can get the same pay for jerking off and watching T.V.?

The system is rigged to work exactly as it is. They have no plans of fixing what they have purposely created.

For that to happen, there needs to be a livable wage, or else its just slow starvation.

Since we are against universal health care, this "job" needs to have medical insurance too.

But here's the thing. If there were no illegals doing it for $7.75 an hour, then the wages would be forced to rise to the point that workers would do the job. See, if it's a hard job and takes a lot to do, people will do it, but you have to pay them right.

There is no excuse for paying someone that little to pick veggies. The farmers can afford more and they know it. They will pay more when they have no choice and not a minute before.

Take away their cheap labor force and then make them hire Americans at a decent wage.

I would jump at this opportunity.

I have been trying to get a job for a few years now; most places that hire, use Unicru, which includes a massive personality test -- I don't get the job, because I'm an INTJ, and I get redflagged...

I would love to do actual, physical labor (lifting, inventory, stock, etc), but can you guess who has all of those jobs around here?
