Comments on: Social Security makes it official: No COLA http://texasfred.net/archives/5174 No Holds Barred: News Opinion Commentary Wed, 17 Mar 2010 05:18:34 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.2 hourly 1 By: BobF http://texasfred.net/archives/5174/comment-page-1#comment-21216 BobF Fri, 16 Oct 2009 02:27:08 +0000 http://texasfred.net/?p=5174#comment-21216 About Joe and Jose. It wasn't just Liberal Democrats who are responsible, many Republicans had their hand in that too. George Bush and John McCain are two that quickly come to mind. Bush constantly said "they're doing the jobs Americans won't". I bet in today's economic environment, Americans would welcome those jobs. Bush and McCain allowed a porous boarder and what thanks did they get? The Hispanic votes they hoped to get went for Obama and Democrats. About Joe and Jose.

I do well to live on that in a months time and I'm not even a big spender, a penny pincher in fact, and having 2 daughters to buy for and raise makes things very difficult for me and so many others in the same boat that legitimately receive it for the right reasons. I guess I'll be one of those getting that $250 as well, but I guarantee you I want be sending a Thank You card to the White House. The system is completely broken as you've so eloquently pointed out. A very frustrating article. Social Security and VA comp are both my livelihood, receiving them both for service connection disabilities.

Whatever needs to done should take priority to remove the unauthorized labor in our jobless nation. More funding, more modifications until the illegal immigrant fraudulent use of documentation becomes a thing of the past. Using whatever technical programming that is available, to make it's operation inadvisable? Any database including state criminal, FBI, Social Security, Homeland Security, and any other means possible. Ultimately the final version would contribute photo verification, national ID system with biometric data which has been recommended by the Brooking's Institute and Duke University MIT. Supposedly small employers who don't operate computers should have common access in such locations as Post Offices or other approachable government building to identify the workers they are hiring. There should be no excuse to not install a nationwide mandatory system of worker identification. My suggestion is that--ALL-I-9's should be copied and a duplicates sent to a Homeland Security Clearing House? Creating such an office would be a simple affair, if our state and federal government would be more beneficial to the working American male and female. If our government is sincere in securing our borders, and introducing new immigration enforcement tools, then E-Verify will become the final deterrent and not be weakened by Sen Harry Reid and his administration. I have made a point of speaking to a few business human resources departments, and found most are enthusiastic about the use of Verify. Only 1 of the 6 companies that I investigated determined some false negatives" and "false positives. But they always have a backup system of contacting the Social Security agency nearest to them, until the irregularities are resolved. All that remains is citizens and legal residents to stop the Obama people from throwing a wrench in the cogs and stopping any technological advancement with E-Verify. E-Verify can be used on a universal level in checking bogus drivers license applications, auto insurance, home purchase, health care and other personal data. It would certainly alleviate the kidnapping of social service programs by the 20 to 30 illegal immigrants in America. It would displace foreign nationals so down-trodden legal single mums with children, homeless vets, senior citizens and even students could get employment. It all depends on all of us to contact our Representative in Washington at 202-224-3121. Tell them you don't want half measures by full permanent implementation? NO MORE DRAGGING THEIR FEET? Tell them your remember them on next election day. YOU ALSO WANT AN END TO ANOTHER AMNESTY. Don't let them distract you, but repeat your demands without hesitation to these open border jerks. Invest a little time and check what your politicians are doing to our immigration enforcement safeguard at NUMBERSUSA. Read about the consequences of future OVERPOPULATION at WEBCAPS and our collapsing infrastructure, that has been ignored for decades nationwide. Last read factual information at JUDICIAL WATCH that discloses the lawmakers, that are running the country for themselves, friends and business associates. ITS ALL FREE. Read that some of the White House Czars are not true Democrats, but are shadowed by their past Liberal Marxist backgrounds.

Important Tax information to be aware of.

This government does nothing to help “the little folks” without expensive strings attached.

My vote is not for sell at any price, but if I sent the check back it might go to ACORN as they have been refunded in some ways.
