First of all Sarcasm, I completely agree with you regarding your remarks about the neocon agenda...It's all that and more...
Q: "...What argument do have for the tremendous number of displacements in construction? How about restaurants? Factories?"
A: When the greater economy melts down due to massive banking fraud - between opaque derivatives and house of card financial investment tool technology, all "guaranteed" by overseas insurers like AIG whose branch CEO's are trying to hit big volume in order to bonus hard before retirement and when even the sophisticated institutions that are buying these "investments" don't understand them....The system has run amuck-- ---- the economy at large goes down and everybody, including the diner waitresses, are effected. Think massive, multi-national ponzi scheme when everybody involved calls Bullshit at the same time....
In my limited experience, I wrote up a number of those Option Arm home loans... And let me just tell you that I was baffled by the time bomb facet of these things... Everybody knew it was just a matter of time before the whole sh*thouse went down in flames...
Nothing to do with illegal immigrants, see? All the damage was done from the inside. This whole witch hunt on the illegals at this juncture imo has more to do with politicians wanting to scapegoat folks, find a common enemy and at the expense of American civil liberties.
However, having said that, and, in an effort to tie this all back in to the topic at hand, I think you and Disco are essentially in agreement on the issue of racial profiling (which is really what we're talking about here, yes?). Disco is advocating a policy of non- visceral reaction, because so much of the greater economy would be negatively effected by a whole scale, knee jerk, "throw out all the immigrants at once" policy.
I think you'll find, Sarcasm, that many of our higher (than landscaping) paid jobs are in China.. And, yes, this "outsourcing" was prolly one part of a misguided neocon strategy, but if you think for a minute that some of these AZ politicians didn't have a hand in turning over manufacturing jobs to China (say, for example, because their developers could get a deal on drywall), I think you're mistaken. Your solution should not be to racially profile immigrants.
Also, it needs to be mentioned here that there is already a concerted effort underway to pinch employers of illegal immigrants...
