[QUOTE="Babagounj, post: 867536, member: 12952"] maybe this is his plan............... The U.S. currently admits about 800,000 legal immigrants per year, all of whom are authorized for employment. This goes on year in and year out, regardless of the level of unemployment. If the U.S. had halted legal immigration when the unemployment rate began to rise sharply in late 2008 we would have 2-3 million fewer job seekers now, and the unemployment rate would be about 2 points lower (7% rather than 9%). This may not sound like a dramatic difference, but imagine the political implications if bhos could propose a bill that would cost the government no money and would reduce the unemployment rate by 2 points before next year’s election. That would change the entire narrative of the campaign. [/QUOTE]
