Drive For $15 Recession

      Comments Off on Drive For $15 Recession

The Drive for $15 is having consequences that were entirely predictable. During the last two years NYC raised the minimum wage for restaurant workers from $11 to $15.  Data show that, as a result, New York City experienced its sharpest decline in restaurant jobs in nearly 20 years.  Never before, outside of a recession, have job losses been like this.

For The People, Part 1

      Comments Off on For The People, Part 1

This is the Orwellian title of legislation (HR 1) proposed by Democrats in the House.  It certainly does not reflect the intent of the legislation. HR 1 is “for the people” like Obamacare was “affordable.”  The more accurate title is “For The Democratic Politicians.”

The first bill put forward by the majority party in a new session of Congress usually lays out that party’s agenda for the next two years.  If that is the case, it seems that Speaker Pelosi and her fellow Democrats are prepared to trample all over the God-given rights of Americans.  The left-leaning ACLU, who normally rubberstamp most Democratic legislation, found this particular piece of legislation a few steps too far even for them.

Immigration Hypocrisy

      Comments Off on Immigration Hypocrisy

The Democrats led by Sen. Chuck Schumer and Speaker Nancy Pelosi have been adamant that there is no problem worth their time at our southern border with Mexico.  They have flat out refused to acknowledge a problem exists despite statistics that show an increasing flood of illegals being apprehended.

There are more and more stories appearing in the media about the other criminal activities of those who try to cross the border illegally.  Homeland Security Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen said Wednesday that young female migrants traveling north to the United States are raped with such regularity that Immigration and Customs Enforcement gives every girl age 10 and over a pregnancy test after arriving.  Human trafficking arrests have tripled in the last two years.

The Democrats won’t consider allowing the top people in ICE to testify as to what a wall might do or what other measures might be appropriate.  They won’t allocate money to stop this flood.  In fact, they want to limit ICE’s ability to protect us from the criminal elements in this flood of illegal aliens.

Civility

      Comments Off on Civility

Back in the run-up to the 2018 elections the Democrats were given marching orders not to talk about impeachment. They said that they were going to return “civility” to Washington.  Talking about impeachment would have indicated that the Democrats were lying when they promised “civility.”

Nancy Pelosi led this effort.  “Well, I think when we win, you will see evidence of that. Because when we do win, we will have, as we open the new Congress, we will honor the vows of our founders, E pluribus unum, from many one,” Pelosi said. “It’s OK to disagree in the marketplace of ideas, that’s exciting, but it is also important to find solutions that unify and not divide.” ...
