I don't condone hiring illegals, but what U.S. citizen regardless of age is stepping up to do those jobs? There are some great young people out there that I admire and love and give me hope.

I imagine most of us at one time or another as we were growing up heard our folks utter the words, "we just want you to have it better than we did". I know I heard it numerous times from my folks, and I in turn have said it to my own son. And though my parents told me those words, it still didn't stop them from making sure I got my butt out of bed to deliver my paper route, and then make me spend my own earned money on an alarm clock so I would get my own butt out of bed to deliver those papers. It instilled a work ethic that I still carry to this day and I did my best to push my son to do the same....which he has exceeded my expectations. He truly has it better than I did, but of his own accord, not because I gave him anything more than the proper motivation to do his best. Therefore it must come down to parents who give their kids everything imaginable and expect no personal responsibility in return. When my brothers or myself got into trouble at school, we were guilty until proven innocent when we got home.....a teacher's or an elder's words were golden and not to be trifled with. Now a days, parents can't wait to confront school administration to whine about the mistreatment of their "world's best" child. In my experience there's something positive to be said for one of these hanging on the wall behind a teacher's desk.

Butifldrm Posted January 15, 2019 Report Share Posted January 15, 2019 HERE ARE THE DEMOCRATS WHO HAVE EXPRESSED support FOR SOME KIND OF A BORDER BARRIER 2:33 PM 01/15/2019 | POLITICS Amber Athey | White House Correspondent 15301 As Democratic leadership refuses to give President Donald Trump a single dollar for the border wall, rank-and-file Democrats are publicly expressing support for funding some kind of physical barrier. The partial government shutdown over border security is now in its fourth week, as Democrats refuse to fulfill the president’s request for $5.7 billion in funding for the wall. At most, Democratic leaders have offered just $1.6 billion for “border security” and nothing for the wall — even if Trump re-opens the government prior to negotiating. (RELATED: Democrats Snub Trump Lunch Offer As Shutdown Continues) Two administration officials told The Daily Caller on Tuesday that are planning on exploiting fissures in the Democratic Party, particularly among newly-elected Democrats in border states whose constituents support a physical border barrier. The White House hopes the strategy puts pressure on House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer. The strategy appears to be a sound one, as a number of Democrats have publicly stated that they support funding for at least a partial border wall or fence. Freshman Democratic California Rep. Katie Hill told CNN last week that she would “vote for some money for physical barriers.” Democratic Washington Rep. Adam Smith conceded that “the wall is not in itself a bad idea” and that he voted for some fencing in the past, but claimed that the president has not appropriately justified adding more barriers on the border. “If we have a partial wall, if we have fencing, if we have technology used to keep our borders safe, all of that is fine,” Democratic Illinois Rep. Cheri Bustos said on CNN before admonishing the president for refusing to accept anything less than $5.7 billion for a barrier. Democratic California Rep. John Garamendi similarly said that he would support a border fence, stating, “Democrats have repeatedly said that we will support border security, we will support all of its elements including fences.” “There may be places where everybody will agree, ‘Yeah, a wall makes sense there,'” Independent Maine Sen. Angus King said, adding that he believes the current debate in Congress is a full wall versus open borders. Republican Virginia Rep. Denver Riggleman claimed on WMAL’s “Mornings on the Mall” yesterday that even more Democrats admit privately that they support some kind of physical barrier. Notably, Trump is no longer proposing a solid concrete wall across the entire border as he hinted at during the 2016 campaign. Rather, similar to the wishes of the above Democrats, the White House’s border wall proposal includes fencing in highly-trafficked areas, concrete walls in areas prone to flooding, drone technology and repairs to existing fencing.

The measures will be outlined in the budget plan that Trump will send to Congress Monday, said four Office of Management and Budget officials who spoke on condition of anonymity because the budget hasn't been released. https://www.firstcoastnews.com/article/news/nation-now/hire-the-best-and-fire-the-worst-trump-proposes-biggest-civil-service-change-in-40-years/465-a0998979-81d7-4faf-854a-791d1d423a84 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
