After 13 attempts to log on to the VA. Employment Commision website to file my weekly unemployment claim..., I finally gave up! This is a bad sign when so many people out of work are trying to log in at the same time. Most of the time.., it's just a bit slower. But this morning is the worst I've ever seen it. Of course, my computer has a disk drive malfunction which is severely hampering it's speed..., but since I'm out of work it won't be getting fixed at any cost to me! I know someone who had agreed in the past to trade off computer repair work for some electrical work he needed.., but he never called me back. Maybe I'll ask him again if he can still do that. At the time when he made the deal.., the computer wasn't malfunctioning.
I am really worried about the future.., not just my own.., but everyone's on the planet! It's difficult to stay positive about anything when you simply don't see an end to our current delima. OBAMA (One Big Ass Mistake America!) definately isn't the answer!!! Of course..., Bush 1 & 2, Clinton (where it all started!), and Hillary (Oh H-E-L-L NO!!) weren't much better!! We need a president with a big set of harry golf balls who doesn't care WHO he offends as long as he gets the job done!! Number one thing on the list..., NO MORE FREE WELFARE & HEALTH CARE FOR ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS!! The ones who are currently recieving it.., sorry dude..., you gots ta get yo ass legal like or you gots ta git!! What? You think I'm being unfair? Is it fair that you and I have to pay taxes on our money and they get to KEEP ALL of thier money, along with free health care? I've even heard of some free education programs set aside just for them. I went to school.., where was my MY free handout? Oh yeah.., that's right.., you have to be BREAKING FEDERAL IMMIGRATION LAWS before you can qualify for those programs!
NEW PLAN!!
With this new information in hand.., I now know what it is I must do. I'm selling everything I own except tools/ladders I need to make a living.., a few personal items (music, sentimentals, guitar/amps, etc).., one truck, and my clothes. I'm taking the money.., leaving my truck and stuff I wish to keep with my daughter. Then, I'm moving to MEXICO and becoming a Mexican citizen!! There, I will learn Spanish.., pick up the accent.., get tanned like a mexican.., and dye my hair black.., yeah Esse.., that's right.., gone loco homee! I will reside there for a few years and blend in. Then.., one day when the time is right, I'll wait until it gets dark and sneak across the border!! I'll move in with 15 of my new found amigos and senoritas. Then I'll work and pay no taxes.., and get free schooling and medical care!! Since I had left the states.., Sugarbear would've kicked me to the curb by then for abandonment.., so I'd no doubt have knocked up 3 different senoritas and fathered 15 little carmel colored bastards to take care of.., and you KNOW what THAT means..., 18 MORE WELFARE CLAIMS!! Holy hot tamalie Batman!!
Anyhow, sounds like a plan, right?! Of course I'm only kidding.., but it's so ridiculous it almost seems do-able as screwy as the economy is. I think Congress is SCARED of retalliation by the Mexican government if they tried to deport all the illegals back to Mexico. They need a REAL wall..., like the Great Wall of China.., embedded deep enough they couldn't tunnel under it. Make the illegals work long enough to pay for it's construction.., when it's finished.., surgically install a tamper proof bomb that would automatically detinate if they came within 50 feet of the wall. It would also detinate once it sensed it was disconnected from the body. Of course, they would have to figure a way for it not to detinate in the event the person was killed or died of natural causes. Install electrodes running 200 feet down at every 6 feet under the wall that would send a high voltage jolt to anyone trying to tunnel under it. Of course.., that still wouldn't fully elleviate the problem.., but it would SERIOUSLY slow it down!
It's not that I hate them wanting to come here. But think about how it effects our economy. If every one of these people paid taxes like the rest of us.., think how much money the government would collect to help the American people (PROVIDING we get someone in office who doesn't hand it out to corporations who don't deserve it!!). From where I sit.., they are STEALING from you and I both! The jobs they hold (preferred or not) are jobs an out of work AMERICAN could have. And don't believe all this crap about Mexicans working for less! Often times.., employers pay them MORE because they're not being taxed the same as us.., nor are any benefits being provided. Therefore, paying them more actually costs him less. Of course, the employers who get caught suffer the consequences. Of course there are some who do abide by the laws.
We as American people must also ASSUME part of the blame. We are way to sympathetic to every bleeding heart country who comes to us with a problem. We SHOULD be fixing the damage on our own turf FIRST!! We give millions in finacial aid to 3rd world countries.., yet we have people living on the streets starving and eating out of dumpsters. We pay millions to INDIVIDUALS simply because they can throw, catch, or shoot a damn baseball, football, or basketball!! We've set people so high on pedestals we swarm like hungry flies at all costs to admire them. The American way of life has gotten entirely out of hand. Until we stop being greedy, stop being insensitive to our own people, start helping our neighbor, drop the chips on our shoulders, get back to good old fashioned family principles, and start trusting one another, we are DOOMED to fail.
