President Obama Solution to Social Security and Immigration Reform Bill?

S.O.S. - SAVE OUR SOULS a.k.a. Save Our Social Security...


On June 29, 2004, the U.S. Commissioner of Social Security and The Director General of the Mexican Social Security Institute reached an agreement – ( http://www.gao.gov/new.items/d03993.pdf) - the so-called Totalization Agreement. While it took three years of wrangling with Freedom of Information Act by the TREA Senior Citizens League to obtain the document entitled “Social Security – Proposed Totalization Agreement with Mexico”.

The seniors group (TREA) knew that if illegal aliens get legal status -- through an amnesty or some sort of legalization plan such as the one the President and the Senate tried to enact in 2006 -- it would allow illegal immigrants, mostly from Mexico, to gain legal status and access to Social Security benefits for their relatives, children and other dependents.

What the agreement reveals is that the United States will permit illegal aliens from Mexico to collect Social Security benefits if they have as little as 18 months of U.S. employment history. In contrast, U.S. citizens must show 10 years -- 40 quarters -- of perfectly legal job history to collect same Social Security benefits.

Despite the fact that it's illegal for employers to knowingly hire individuals who are in this country illegally, the agreement which awaits the President’s Obama signature, can take effect without Congress' approval. The current 2010 Democratic Congress doesn't have to vote to approve it -- it has only 60 days to disapprove it, which isn't likely because they likely support allowing the agreement to become law.

This agreement would drain more billions from a Social Security system that already lists a $14 trillion liability and assets of only $3.5 trillion, according to a 2003 report generated by the Center for Immigration Studies. And it's worth noting that virtually none of those $3.5 billion in "assets" consists of gold bars or even bundled greenbacks sitting in some government vault.

These so-called "Totalization" Agreements are common -- the United States has them with 20 other countries. Their goal is to avoid double taxation when employers assign employees to work temporarily in another country. But, "Totalization” was not designed or intended to cover millions of illegal aliens sneaking past the southern U.S. Border Patrol from what is a borderline Third World country.

The Pew Hispanic Center estimated that there are between 3.4 and 5.7 million unauthorized Mexican citizens in the United States and the Urban Institute has estimated that there are more than 4 million according to GAO-03-993 Social Security Report to Congressional Requesters.

The vast majority of individual tax returns are filed using a social Security Number (SSN) as identification. However, there are instances where alien individuals will file a U.S. tax return. To enable these individuals to file, Treasury Regulations were issued in 1996 to provide them with Individual Taxpayer Identification Number (ITIN).

An ITIN is intended for tax purposes only and creates no inference regarding an alien individual’s right to live in the U.S. or be illegally employed here. A study done by the Inspector General’s Office of the Department of Treasury found that 55 percent of illegal aliens who filed income tax returns using tax identification numbers had no federal income tax liability, reflecting their income and large number of dependent.

An analysis of Forms 1040 filed in Tax year 2001 with ITINs found that approximately 530,000 Forms 1040 were filed with ITINs as the primary number by aliens with the number increasing each passing 5 years.

All American’s should be concerned about illegal aliens coming here and getting as good a deal from our government “entitlement” programs with their U.S. Citizens

First there was Korean birth tourism, where pregnant Korean women would come to the United States as tourists in order to ensure their babies were U.S. citizens.

Then Tucson hospitals started offering "birth packages" to expectant Mexican mothers. And now, this: With more Turkish parents wanting their child to be born in the US, tourism companies are starting to offer 'birth tourism' packages to some US cities.

Many women say giving birth in the US has benefits including cheaper education and fewer visa worries.

Some Americans, however, want to restrict the practice, citing fears of more illegal migration and more anchor babies, etc.

The first time we ever saw the term “anchor babies” was years ago in an article about South Korean birth “tourists”.

It is insane that the United States continues to allow this sort of thing.

Citizenship should come from the parents, or from naturalization, or from marriage, but not from the mere fact that someone was born on US soil.

Like any computer function it takes time to remove the bugs. Nationally known PC products have problems? Even the greatest programs have inconsistencies with new versions appearing as they are revised and upgraded. Same is with E-Verify that is undergoing a continuous revision. I make no excuses that I have bombarded the internet with my blogs. To keep the American people aware that the open border extremists, use there pressures to demonize or at the least compromise E-Verify. Unlike wealthy parasite corporate owners the shrinking middle class doesn't have the resources to fight back against this incredible decades-long sedition. Those who wish to destroy E-Verify use are well financed by a huge compendium of organizations that have many reasons to remove it from immigration enforcement. It’s a repeat performance in announcing that the ordinary people who gain an advantage of making E-Verify as a permanent tool. Do not let these adverse organizations demoralize you. Already Homeland Security is working on the fraudulent ID glitch. Photo identification is being added, with other advanced tools.

It is against dark forces who not only want the free movement of cheap labor settled in America, but they also want the US population to pay for corporate welfare it represents. Corporate welfare being that many of our politicians are complicit in, to keeping the borders open no matter what? If decades of administrations wanted to halt the unceasing invasion of illegal immigrants, why have they not made illegal entry a criminal offense? Why is it not a felony? Illegal immigration would never have grown on this massive scale that is negatively connected with job loss for Americans. Another quest why the preposterous lie that any woman who crosses the border with intent to have their baby here. That was originally meant for the emancipation of the civil war slaves. As yet hasn't been rescinded, but distorted by the Liberal bench? Same with the 1986 Immigration Control and Reform Act that always faltered?

WHY MAKE IT THE LAW OF THE LAND--IF IT’S NOT GOING TO BE FULLY ENFORCED? These are the questions demanding answers from every federal and state representative of the people at 202-224-3121? Have any of us considered, that the US taxpayer would possibly paying less taxes, if states like the SANCTUARY STATE OF CALIFORNIA, NEW YORK were not emptying our pockets with entitlement programs for illegal alien families? Take for instance the document you pass to the immigration/customs agent as a tourist, student or any other visitor. Why bother when there is no way to detect, who has left this nation or have just disappeared into the landscape? Most of the time, the airport staff, ferry, passenger forget to ask or don't even care? You will only find these answers at NUMBERSUSA, JUDICIAL WATCH or by surfing the Internet?

There is not enough room in this commentary to list the benefits to illegal aliens, including the child income tax reimbursement? Just ask Supervisor Michael D. Antonovich of Los Angeles, who according to him $50 million in welfare benefits (CALWORKS + Food Stamp’s) for the month of January 2010 alone. Yes! And that just the very tip of the financial iceberg, extracted from your income. Hundreds of pro-sovereignty groups will relay the information, of the billions of dollars given to illegal immigrant families. Now they want to further the outrage, by giving millions of illegal families a free ride to citizenship? Should a new amnesty past, what makes you think that future administrations will hold back the next tidal wave of people? How much more money do you think this Amnesty or following waves of illegal immigration will cost you?

THINK! Can anybody offer a reason why they haven't stationed the Nation Guard along the border, especially now with the incessant criminal drug war taking more lives of American citizens? The US Border Patrol has limited personnel and even the border Sheriff’s has limited deputies to keep the national line safe? Every day it gets worse and our government seem almost nonchalant to the battles raging on both sides. The National Guard should be armed and have the right to protect US citizens, who live along the border and terrorized by the criminal as well as illegal aliens crossing their land. My question how come we pour massive resources into Iraq and Afghanistan, when our border remains easy access to anybody?

Returning to E-Verify will be shortly a 99.9 percent effective and we shouldn't listen to Sen. Schumer, Sen. Graham, or others who are blemished, such as Sen. Reid, Majority speaker Reid, Sen. McCain, Dick Armey and a large obnoxious grab-bag of others.Many are now hesitating because they have been caught red-handed, as being the puppets of corporate welfare. Hearth Care reform could be distributed to millions of Americans, if only our legislators denied any government entitlements to (ANCHOR BABIES) with instant citizenship, who are the "Anchor" for the whole family to reside here. New legitimized immigrants could sponsor, millions of direct family members including those who are already medical patients? They will become the American taxpayer’s extra financial baggage.

If you cannot see a silent conspiracy to keep importing desperately poor people, when we should instead demand from Washington only those of superior skills, who will not become a taxpayers extra mouth to feed. The real criminal is the business man, protected by corrupt Washington insiders, who refuse to fully fund such programs as REAL ID ACT, THE SAVE ACT, which contain E-Verify, the local police 287 (g) and the dwindling ICE raids. A 24 hour hot-line should be implemented for law abiding citizens to report irregularities in work and tax records, with perhaps a small reward. Just as the bridge to nowhere, the fence was compromised from the start of construction. Just as the federal government have ignored states, counties and cities that have proclaimed they are refuge for illegal aliens.

Not only are they breaking government law, but as Los Angeles Order 40, has allowed criminal aliens to maim and kill innocent citizens. Even in the rural neighborhoods that once didn't have to lock their doors, find they are no longer defended from foreign nationals who are now a large percentage of cell-block inmates. We have our own citizen habitual criminal population. Why are states like California spending money they don't have on an expanding crime rate from illegal aliens? We can all bury our heads in the sand and listen to the repetitive lies of open border politicians, who have cheated their oath to protect the principles of the US Constitution? It is “THE PEOPLES” obligation and right, to stop this travesty of immigration laws?

Like most ordinary Americans today, I have a mortgage up-in the air, car payment and feeding my family from my pensions. How much money does the IRS take from my family to educate foreign children, incarcerate their parents or all the other welfare programs that are intentionally hidden from US citizens and residents? This is not a multilingual nation; it is a nation under one flag that has flourished through many wars, downturns and the allowance of welcoming--LEGAL--immigration. We do not need millions of illegal immigrants brandishing foreign flags, demanding their rights to stay here in national rallies, when they violated our sovereign laws to begin with?

GET THE MESSAGE OUT. Immediate news: Get ready for the 100.000 illegal immigrant rally to Washington this weekend. WHERE'S ICE?

S.O.S. - a.k.k.- Save Our Social Security...

Apparently destroying the American healthcare system is not sufficient, now President Obama wants to reward millions of illegal aliens, who violated our laws with U.S. citizenship and of course the right to vote 100% Democratic ticket.

The last time those idiots in Washington tried to ram through an amnesty program for illegal aliens, the phone lines to Congress almost melted down.

President Obama gave a thumbs-up to the framework of his current plan to legalize illegal alien immigrants as 100% citizens of the U.S.

The long-awaited framework of President Obama Social Security and Immigration Reform Bill, written by Sens. Charles E. Schumer, New York Democrat, and Lindsey Graham, South Carolina Republican, calls for illegal aliens to be put on a path to citizenship and would create a temporary program for future foreign alien workers.

Maybe most contentious of all, it would turn all Social Security cards into tamper-proof IDs to be checked by employers when they are about to hire a new worker.

The cards would include biometric information designed to prevent counterfeiting — but the senators said the information would not be stored in a government database.

President Obama gave a thumbs up Thursday 03/18/2010 in the White House to the outline of a plan to legalize illegal immigrants and create a flow of low-skilled foreign workers for the future, saying the immigration bill being worked on by a Republican and a Democrat is "promising."

There are some 25 million U.S. workers and legal immigrants already in the country that can't find full-time work, and more than 8 million jobs are filled with illegal aliens that could be filled with legal workers instead.

Now is the time to make it clear to Congress that we oppose a mass amnesty for illegal aliens!

Why do people want to enter the U.S.A. illegally? Answer - because someone is making money on the deal. Who is it? Is it Pelosi who bemefits going to DelMonte Foods in American Samoa? Is it the businesses that traffic in prostitution and child labor? Is it the Democrats that want to medically insure 30 million illegal aliens? Watch the vote this weekend.

WASHINGTON D.C - S.T.O.P. Amnesty NOW!
S.O.S. Save Our Social Security NOW!

The mass amnesty supporters know that their Sunday's march planned for March 21, 2010 in Washington is their only shot at getting illegal alien immigration back on the President's agenda before the mid-term elections this fall.

Now is the time to make it clear to Congress that we oppose a mass amnesty for illegal aliens!
