Exactly how do you think Immigration hurts the economy?


There is actually a direct connection between immigration and economic growth and prosperity. Uncontrolled, illegal immigration is problematic because it floods the downscale wage markets driving already low wages down. The only way that applies to legal immigration is if the composition is too large ad proportionally composed of too many unskilled laborers.

Also, what is deductibility of wages paid to illegals?

Hiring illegals is against the law, so claiming a deductions for such would be tax fraud.

First he mangles my RL ideology and now he messes up my Atlasian political affiliation. What the hell did I ever do to you, Seatown, to deserve such treatment.

Forgive my spamming and lack of knowledge on the following, but if there were/are 3 Whig senators out of 5, wouldn't that effectively make you Majority Leader as Chair of the WP?

I think there are a total of 10 Senators if you count the ones elected regionally. I suspect two are labor(pacifc& midwest), 1 is liberal(northeast) and is whig(south). Not sure about Mideast.

The Mideast is about to have a None of the Above Party Senator.

There is no such organizational structure in the Atlasian Senate and with only 10 people such would be impractical. The organization of the Senate is structured on a non-partisan basis with three men in a room, the VP, The PPT and the Senate Dean (which we will soon have a new one when the Mideast Senator is liquidated)

I know he is a hell of a damned fool, but that is just the sort of person the Senate needs right now to stir up debate over things others wouldn't dare discuss.

[Southern Senator North Carolina Yankee]

Also Sbane, since you seem to have time on your hands.


Perhaps you can explain why a Consitutional Amendment sat on the floor for three days when one more vote could have finished it. As of yet, your vote is still lacking. You might want to vote on it before I end it soon.

That is an utterly lowest common denominator, populist (in the worst sense of the term), midless excuse of a reason to justify straight ticket voting. You are a better man then that,Yank; this poor argument is beneath you.

Sometimes the truth isn't the convenient answer you want it to be. I had no plans to vote straight ticket. I went in, copy and pasted the ballot into notepad and made several different preference schedules. The first one had Andrew at the top of the ballot.

What the Senate needs is disagreement on issues to spur debate and activity. As I have said before, as a game you can't approach people (even those you find disgusting) with a slash and burn mentality. Sometimes you need to make decisions to artificially spur the game and that means you don't do things the way you normally would in a real life election.

If you don't like it, that is too bad, Badger.

[Southern Senator North Carolina Yankee]

I hope that your health has been fully restored and look forward to your future contributions.

[Southern Senator North Carolina Yankee]

Congrats

[Southern Senator North Carolina Yankee]

I will also throw an endorsement your way as well.

If I were to wish the greatest ill to a man this side of the grave, I would put him in my stead with my troubles...

Paraphrase of Washington for those who are interested.

Still want to come back as a Conservative Chairman, Griff?

[Southern Senator North Carolina Yankee]

Welcome back man.
