I can think of only a few asrticels from HP I've quoted over the past several years.
Regarding the source. They're extrapolating backwards to make a policy comment, that NEWSMAX is liberally manipulating into a conclusion. There's a big difference here.
By the same logic these jobs could also go to underaged legal citizens, Martians and the mentally unfit. And Obama has directed it as part of his evil plan...

Spence,
I feel like I'm watching a pitcher who has lost his fastball and is going out and trying to get batters out by fooling them with curevballs and changeups. You are the political forum version of a junkballer.
You used to be able to put together coherent and researched arguments, but now you just throw out some big words like "asritcels" and "extrapolating" and hope you confuse us.
Conservatives wanting more legislation? Where did you get that from? Is it because the House version of the stimulus bill wanted to verify that workers are legal? What makes that a conservative directive? Is the House full of "conservative" Democrats? By the way, it's not really legislation being added to the bill. It's legislation that's already there that is just not being dropped.
Do you assume that there are US companies breaking the law? Remember a while back the company in New Bedford that was raided and over 300 illegals were carted off? What about all the manufacturing plants in the midwest? I guess if you don't think it's happening, you're probably not very well informed. These people, no matter how good their intentions or how nice of people they are, are hurting the US economy. They use services that taxpayes pay for, while not contributing to those services. They also are working in jobs that could go to legal citizens who are authorized to work in the US.
Do you really feel that this "redundant" provision is going to "burden" businesses? I can't even understand where you can come up with an argument here. It's more of a burden to businesses to pay the fines associated with hiring undocumented workers than to take literally 30seconds to confirm whether an employee is eligible or not.
