GOP Rep. Maria Salazar: Americans Need Illegal Migrants to Defend the USA​

Americans cannot defend the United States without the help of illegal migrants, said Republican Rep. Maria Salazar (R-FL) on Monday.
Salazar’s comments came as she joined Democrats to tout her “Dignidad” amnesty for at least 15 million illegal aliens, saying:

Let them stay … Let them continue contributing to the number one economy in the world, so we can continue being the number one military in the world. [If] we don’t have the economy, we don’t have the guns, and we cannot defend ourselves.

There is little evidence that the nation’s stock of at least 15 million illegal migrants — or of the 40 million legalized migrants — positively contribute to the nation’s increasingly high-tech, low-manpower, national security strategy.
In reality, migrant renters, workers and consumers are being used to pump up the consumer economy as investors export the nation’s critical high-tech and manufacturing industries, as well as critical databases and software resources, to cheap foreign workers in China and India. Salazar’s amnesty bill would accelerate that process by dramatically increasing the legalized inflow of low-wage workers.

“When people tell me that I am trying to help big business to have cheap labor, I’m going to answer them: It’s not [just] big business, it’s not only agricultural or construction or hospitality or health care or manufacturing — it’s more,” Salazar told a Capitol Hill press conference in April.

Who else? The farmers, people in the dairy business. We all like milk, right? Well, there are 150,000 jobs available in agriculture right now … Manufacturers! I don’t know anyone in the manufacturing world, but I do know that the National Association of Manufacturers decided to do a public press conference to support [the] Dignidad [bill] … It’s agricultural, construction, hospitality [sectors] …

The lady got a point. We’ve already felt the drop in SSA revenue. Decimate the troops and we’d might as well just hand over DC to anyone with a slingshot and bad intentions.
