Illegal Aliens or Undocumented Workers?


Well, I turned on the news during my morning coffee as I always do, and they are once again debating the question: Do we call people here illegally 'illegal aliens or undocumented workers'?  We shouldn't even need to ask this question but let's break it down once and for all.

 Illegal - Contrary to or forbidden by law.

 Alien - Belonging to a foreign country or nation.

 Undocumented - Not recorded in or proved by documents.

 Workers - People who produce or achieve. 

 These definitions came from the Google Dictionary.  Now, let's examine:

 * Is coming to America without permission contrary to or forbidden by law?  Yes.

 * If you sneak into America do you belong to a foreign country or nation?  Yes.

 * If you are here in America illegally would you be documented?  Not unless you're caught.  If you are undocumented it is because you are illegal.

 * Can you legally produce or achieve?  No.  Crossing the border illegally is not an achievement, it's a crime.  Hiring illegals for a job is also a crime. 

 As I've tried to explain before, you can be politically correct or you can tell the truth but you can't do both.  

 Let's start calling things what they are.  Feelings should not factor into it.  If the truth hurts your feelings then you need to toughen up.  

 If you are eating an apple, calling it an orange doesn't change the taste.  Call it an apple whether the apple likes it or not. 

 Undocumented Immigrant doesn't work either because sneaking in doesn't make you an immigrant, it makes you a law-breaker.

KKK History Lesson

For some reason, recently, people have been associating the KKK with Republicans and BLM with Democrats. This is all propaganda that is being fed to us. Here’s a little history lesson and an explanation of why: Both the KKK and BLM were created by Democrats. You didn't expect me to say that did you? Actually, the KKK wasn't started to be a black and white thing. The original targets of the Ku Klux Klan were Republicans, both black and white. For decades the KKK harassed the GOP with lynchings and threats. An estimated 3,446 blacks and 1,297 whites died at the end of KKK ropes from 1882 to 1964. Republicans often led the efforts to pass federal anti-lynching laws and their platforms consistently called for a ban on lynching. Democrats successfully blocked those bills and their platforms never did condemn lynchings. Further, the first grand wizard of the KKK was honored at the 1868 Democratic National Convention, no Democrats voted for the 14th Amendment to g

Health Insurance vs Health Care

     Everyone is arguing about health insurance these days and most don't even understand what they're arguing about.  There's a reason for that.  This is a complicated mess.      Before Obamacare (ACA) our system was set up so that the poor had Medicaid, the elderly and disabled had Medicare, and the people still in the workforce could purchase their insurance from whatever company they wanted to within their state.  Of course, a lot of people also had insurance through their employers.      So, who are the 22,000,000 people that Democrats say will lose insurance if we repeal Obamacare?  Are they the people that can work and get their own instead of using taxpayer money?  Are they the people that don't even want it but are being mandated to buy it?  Who exactly are these people?  The truth is that 16,000,000 or 73% don't even want it.  They have it because their only other choice is to pay a fine and they figure they might as well get something for their money
