  "Even if one believes that governments are little better than large bands of thieves... it is in most cases incomparably better to live with 1 settled group of thieves than to run for one's life from even more violent & predatory bandits who clash & loot under anarchy.   At least when governments become the main custodians of violence at a large scale, they have some incentive to let citizens prosper, if only so they can collect more taxes.   The roving bandits & looters who compete under anarchy lack even these weak incentives to moderation." --- James Dale Davidson & William Rees-Mogg 1994 _The Great Reckoning_ pp 93-94 (referencing Richard B. McKenzie 1984 _Constitutional Economics_ & Mancur Olson _Anarchy, Autocracy, & Democracy_)

Bruce Bialosky _Jewish World Review_
let's get real about border & port security, visas, and immigration: Bialosky Rule: the more rioting by the Dems/Reds/Leftists, the better president Trump is doing
"[7 of 53 majority Muslim countries]...   Let's examine why these countries are considered Muslim countries.   Many of them had substantial Jewish populations, but those Jews left in the past 50 to 70 years -- partially because of the creation of Israel and partially to save their lives.   A large Iranian-Jewish population settled in America.   There are only an estimated 40 Jews left in Yemen [where Judaism was once the established religion decreed by the king].   An estimated 900K to 1M Jews were run out of these countries.   Would any Jew relocate to these 7 countries today? No...   Then there is the treatment of Christians in these countries.   If you review the history of how Christians have been abused in these countries, they followed the Jews out the door.   You may not remember all the instances so take some time to review how often Christians have been murdered in these countries for the sin of being Christians...   Supposedly now people coming from these nations as refugees have been properly [vetted/investigated/screened/scrutinized] despite the Intelligence Community telling us last year they are unable to assure us of that [because there are no data-bases to query, nor paper records, no means of inserting USA investigators, insufficient reliable interpreters and translators, and only imperfect means of interviewing people and being able to gauge whether they are likely lying or telling the truth]...   why do we not have established procedures to intensively screen anyone coming from these countries whether they are USA citizens, legal residents or just foreign visitors?..."

Dan Cadman _Center for Immigration Studies_
applicants for visitor, guest-work, refuge, asylum, student, exchange... visas are not vigorously investigated or otherwise vigorously vetted/scrutinized/screened
"...I served nearly 30 years as an immigration officer, more than 20 of those with the now-defunct Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS), when it was undivided and officers in any single division had close contact and a clear view of the work of those in other divisions, often working side-by-side in remote corners of the world.   One of the deficits of the current state of affairs, post-creation of the Department of Homeland Security, is the horse-blinders that it has of necessity imposed on officers of the 3 different agencies that now conduct the immigration-related functions of the federal government: USCIS, Customs and Border Protection (USA CBP), and Immigration and Customs Enforcement (USA ICE).   Officers and agents in any one of them generally don't have any window into the functions of the others, and the threads that bind have started to unravel through separation...   the proof is not who got stopped, but who should have been and wasn't.   The [vetting/investigating/scrutinizing/screening] system across the whole range of immigration benefits has been lacking in recent years, if the disturbingly large number of terrorist attacks and near-misses is any gauge (and it must be since, after all, that is the reason all of these immigration agencies were lumped into a department called 'homeland security').   And in the particular case of refugees, we rely all too heavily on the United Nations [UN] to provide to us the list of applicants who will form the basis of our caseload.   For [vetting/investigating/scrutinizing/screening] to work, there has to be information to [vet/investigate/scrutinize/screen] against.   Where there is none, a blank slate is not necessarily evidence that an individual is a bona fide refugee, and yet that is the presumption that results from current processes.   Refugee officers are instructed not to interrogate or otherwise engage in hostile questioning; they are limited in the outside resources they are permitted to use in forming judgments on the outcome of a case; and, increasingly, they are recruited solely from a pool of individuals whose careers prior to entering government were dedicated to the resettlement of refugees, thus giving them a predisposition toward approving, rather than denying, claimants..."

"...Contrary to what some law-makers and the fake news media have repeated, it is an incontrovertible fact that refugees have committed alarming crimes, and terrorist attacks against our nation.   To outline just a sample of these attacks: Somali refugee Abdul Razak Ali Artan went on a jihadi stabbing rampage at Ohio State University.   In 2016, an Iraqi refugee Omar Faraj Saeed Al Hardan was accused of planning to bomb a local mall in Texas.   In 2016 September, a Somali-Kenyan immigrant named Dahir Adan went on a stabbing spree at a mall in St. Cloud, Minnesota.   Somali refugee Mohamed Osman Mohamed was arrested for planning to blow up a Christmas tree lighting ceremony in Oregon back in 2010.   In 2012, Abdullatif Ali Aldosary, an Iraqi refugee, bombed a Social Security Office in Arizona.   Two Iraqi refugees were convicted for having aided al-Qaeda in Iraq in killing American servicemen.   These so-called 'refugees', lied on their applications, and as proof that the screening process is ineffective, were allowed entry without issue.   Both Boston Bombers, the Tsarnaev Brothers, were asylum-seekers fleeing Russia and living in Kyrgyzstan before entering the United States of America.   For some, the facts simply don't matter.   They are going to push their radical, anti-American, open borders propaganda no matter what..."

why business executives have conniptions about possibility of H-1B visa reform: it is about an essentially unlimited supply of cheap, young, pliant, easily intimidated, low-skilled labor with flexible ethics
Wolf Street
"...In light of the [135K-200K] foreign tech workers allowed to be brought into the USA annually under the H-1B visa program [based on H-1B visas actually issued in recent years as reported by the State Department] -- a limit tech companies have been clamoring to raise -- here's a stunning forecast by the Bureau of Labor Statistics: 'Employment of computer and information technology occupations is projected to grow 12% from 2014 to 2024, faster than the average for all occupations. These occupations are expected to add [only] about 488,500 new jobs, from about 3.9M jobs to about 4.4M jobs from 2014 to 2024, in part due to a greater emphasis on cloud computing, the collection and storage of big data, more everyday items becoming connected to the Internet in what is commonly referred to as the «Internet of things [to violate everyone's privacy]» and the continued demand for mobile computing.' That's [scary] news. So 488,500 'IT' jobs are to be created over 10 years, so about 44,850 a year on average, which means more jobs in good years and net job reductions in bad years. [Meanwhile, the Department of Education has been reporting that 210K-380K USA citizens have been earning STEM degrees each year, 2.1M-3.8M/decade; and 28K-66K USA citizens have been earning computer & information sciences degrees per year, while according to NSF some 50K-118K USA citizens have been rendering themselves able and willing C&IS practitioners each year, or 500K-1.18M/decade.]   But over the same decade, [1.8M] H-1B visa holders would come to the USA to fill these 488,500 'IT' jobs... You get the idea... The meme that there are half a million tech jobs in the US that somehow cannot be filled by American workers doesn’t hold water. Dean Baker, co-director of the Center for Economic and Policy Research in Washington, told the Times: 'I'm sure employers might not have as much choice as they would like, but if the shortage story were true, we'd see wages rising more rapidly than they are.', he said, adding that there's substantial unemployment even among workers in STEM fields (science, technology, engineering and math).'... Other tech giants that are struggling with morose revenues have also been shedding employees in the USA, rather than hiring... tech companies or 'IT' departments at non-tech companies are laying off Americans and replace them with H-1B workers, often requiring the to-be-laid-off Americans to train their foreign successors. This is proof that the verbiage about not being able find Americans to do those jobs is just a pretext... last year, Dell-EMC announced that it was seeking efficiencies that might 'save' $1.7G, and so it would lay off 2K to 3K USA workers after requesting 5K H-1B visas and Green Cards to import foreign workers... Few people would have difficulties seeing the benefits of truly great minds coming to the USA to do their magic. But there are not many of them..."

Dick Morris _Jewish World Review_
president Trump did not try to "ban" Muslims, only terrorists
8 U.S.C. § 1182(f)
WhiteHouse.gov: executive order protecting USA from foreign terrorist entry into the USA
presidential actions
Pretty good, but Morris has his Texas and Mexico history a bit off.   Mexico enticed settlers to northern Mexico because they wanted more production and more tax base.   In exchange, they offered generous homesteading, respect for property rights, contracts, and individual liberty.   But the Mexican historical/cultural background made fulfilling such agreements impossible.   One of the very leaders of the somewhat more classical liberal change-over soon became the leader of an authoritarian, hierarchical change-over, and the agreements were broken.   That was when the new Mexican citizens from the USA rebelled (and eventually got their acts together well enough to succeed over 2 decades later).   Jewish aliyah to Israel is also a bad example.   Though out of power since at least 70CE, there was a continuous Jewish presence in Israel, with schools, synagogues, etc...jgo

Rich Lowry _Jewish World Review_
president Trump's executive order is perfectly constitutional and legal; facts, logic, and the law don't support Robart's sweeping assertion of judicial authority
"...the supreme court held in the 1950 Knauff case, 'inherent in the executive power to control the foreign affairs of the nation'.   The courts are not meant to second guess the executive's conduct of foreign affairs, or intrude on its plenary power in this area.   'It is not within the province of any court', the court noted in that decision, 'unless expressly authorized by law, to review the determination of the political branch of the government to exclude a given alien'.   Second, it's hard to get around the relevant federal immigration law, which says, 'Whenever the president finds that the entry of any aliens or of any class of aliens into the United States would be detrimental to the interests of the United States, he may by proclamation, and for such period as he shall deem necessary, suspend the entry of all aliens or any class of aliens as immigrants or nonimmigrants, or impose on the entry of aliens any restrictions he may deem to be appropriate.'...   When the president has such authorization from Congress, the supreme court held in the Youngstown Steel case in 1952, his 'authority is at its maximum, for it includes all that he possesses in his own right plus all that Congress can delegate'...   aliens residing outside the United States have no right to come here.   The supreme court held in the 1982 Landon case, 'an alien seeking initial admission to the United States requests a privilege and has no constitutional rights regarding his application, for the power to admit or exclude aliens is a sovereign prerogative'...

David A. Perdue ii & Thomas B. Cotton proposed RAISE act to reform immigration system, restore legacy 500K/year immigration levels, protect USA workers, boost wages... but you may see an increase in other categories, where there is an empirical and demonstrated need for more immigrant labor–particularly among the "skilled" and the "ultra-high skilled"
Matthew Boyle: Tom Cotton recognizes that it is time to cut immigration levels and shift focus to helping USA citizens
"...the bill would reduce immigration by [only] 41% in the first year and by [only] 50% by the 10th year [instead of the 50% reduction in the first year, another 10 percentage points in the 2nd year, and 70% from current levels in the 3rd year, 75% from current in the 4th year, 80% from current in 5th year].   'According to immigration projection models based on the work of Princeton and Harvard professors, the RAISE Act would lower overall immigration to 637,960 in its first year and to 539,958 by its tenth year -- a 50% reduction from the 1,051,031 immigrants who arrived in 2015.', Cotton's one-pager explains."

putting Iran theocracy on notice
"...On Wednesday, national-security-adviser Michael Flynn put Iran 'on notice' for its ballistic missile test and its arming, training and equipping of Houthi rebels in Yemen.   The early reaction from the network of groups that pushed for the Iran nuclear deal has been shock and horror.   The Arms Control Association warned president Trump against 'provoking confrontation'.   [Sometimes, belligerent thugs who, several times a day chant 'Death to the USA!   Death to Israel!' and supply and fund several terrorist forces need to be confronted.]   The National Iranian American Council said Flynn's warning was 'reckless'.   Ben Rhodes, [Obummer's self-admittedly dishonest] top national-security adviser, let loose about it on his Twitter feed.   And I understand the alarm.   After all, Trump has ridiculed [Obummer's unconstitutional deal to help Iran develop nuclear weapons and delivery systems] since the parties agreed to it.   News outlets Thursday night reported the administration planned on sanctioning 25 Iranian entities for the missile test and support for the Houthis.   Trump administration officials tell me there will be other changes to Iran policy to follow, including new rules of engagement for USA Naval vessels in the Persian Gulf.   All of this creates an atmosphere of uncertainty for Iran's leaders who don't yet know what it means when Trump puts them 'on notice'.   Most times, predictability and steadiness are important for statecraft.   But there are exceptions.   Iran's recent aggression in the Middle East is one of them.   Since 'completing' the nuclear deal in 2015, Iran has tested ballistic missiles at least 12 times, according to the Foundation for the Defense of Democracies..."
The "deal" was bogus as it was being signed.   It certainly did nothing to stop or slow Iran's development of nuclear weapons and delivery systems, and certainly has done much to accelerate them.   It was not ratified by two-thirds of the USA senate, so it is not a treaty binding the USA, either.   And even if you accept the "executive agreement" non-sense, once the executive is gone, so is the agreement.   The issue now is how best to stop Iran and its aim to destroy the USA and Israel, and Sunni Muslims...jgo

media spinning stories on terrorist attacks, down-playing Islam
"...A classic example of that can be found by comparing and contrasting the coverage that 2 news agencies -- WND and the BBC -- gave to a brutal machete attack at the Nazareth Mediterranean Restaurant one year ago in 2016 February that left four patrons wounded, one critically.     In the BBC story, there is no mention of the words Islam, jihad, Muslim, refugee or immigrant.     Every one of those words applied to the attacker, Mohamed Barry, who was a Muslim immigrant from the West African country of Guinea, as pointed out in the WND story.     'Trump is absolutely correct.     The point is not that they ignore the stories, but they deliberately conceal and/or misrepresent the aspects of them that make it clear that they're Islamic jihad attacks.', said Robert Spencer, editor of Jihad Watch...   Orlando...   Chattanooga...   University of California at Merced...     The British-based BBC often provides more coverage of terrorist attacks than its USA counterparts, abc, CBS and NBC, said Phillip Haney, retired Homeland Security officer who for more than 13 years screened immigrants and refugees for connections to terrorism...     San Bernardino attack by Syed Farook and his immigrant wife, Tashfeen Malik...   Ohio State University...   St. Cloud, MN...     the BBC's main article detailing the attack in San Bernardino on 2015 Dec.   11, starts out like a story about a 'mass shooting' crime, not an Islamic jihadist attack.   The word 'Islam' [or Muslim or Mohammedan...] does not even appear until the 8th paragraph.   The fact that Farook had recently traveled to Saudi Arabia was not mentioned until the 10th paragraph.   In the 14th paragraph, we find out that Farook and Malik had been 'radicalized' for some time, but the BBC fails to inform its readers how or by whom this 'radicalization' occurred.   Do Muslims just wake up one day and decide to kill?   Where does this inspiration come from?   [What, exactly, in the context, does 'radical' mean?   Did he suddenly become an extremist devotee of Obummer or Ayers or Marx or Frank Davis or Stalin?]   Silence on that issue is the unwritten code of conduct for main-stream news reporters.   And here's the kicker.   The reader must continue reading down to the 21st paragraph to find where the BBC has buried the most important news information...   familiar pattern..."

James Robart's lack of national, state, local security expertise
"...The Justice Department provided the sub-committee with a list of 580 people who were convicted -- not just arrested, but tried and convicted -- of terror-related offenses between 2001 Sept. 11 and 2014 Dec. 31.   The sub-committee investigated further and found that at least 380 of the 580 were foreign-born and that an additional 129 were of unknown origin.   Of the 380, there were representatives -- at least 60 -- from all of the countries on the Trump executive order list.   And with 129 unknowns, there might be more, as well.   In addition, since the senate list was compiled, there have been others involved in terrorism in the United States from the seven countries.   One highly publicized example was the case of Abdul Artan, a Somali refugee who last November wounded 11 people with a machete during an attack on the campus of Ohio State University.   In fairness to judge Robart, Artan was shot and killed by police -- not arrested -- so perhaps the judge didn't count him [though he is another example of the lack of successful background investigations and appropriate action by DoS and DHS barring terrorists from entering the USA, and failure of local police and DHS personnel from detecting his intentions, though they had been published months before in an interview].   In a report Monday, the Associated Press, relying on the research of University of North Carolina professor Charles Kurzman, reported that '23% of Muslim Americans involved with extremist plots since Sept. 11 had family backgrounds from the 7 countries'..."

Tom Cotton (R-AR) & David Perdue (R-GA) RAISE act: an immigration/visa law for the average USA citizen
"When you deal with the subject of immigration over an extended period of time, as I have, one of the uncomfortable realities you must contend with is the nature of most immigration-related legislation.     Strip away the fancy bill names, get down into the guts of the language, and you discover that it is all about catering to special interests: big business, big agriculture, this or that group of aliens.     Once in a while, it serves (or purports to serve) sweeping national security purposes.     But almost never does it serve the interests of the bedrock of our nation: all of the average Joes and average Janes out there who are working hard, often struggling to get by, both parents in a family unit employed if they can find the work, sometimes at more than one job each because the pay or benefits are inadequate.     I'm happy to report that senators Tom Cotton (R-AR) and David Perdue (R-GA) have introduced a bill in the Senate called the Reforming American Immigration for Strong Employment (RAISE) Act that unashamedly puts the interests of the American people front and center.     To mention just a few items that the bill features: The bill will take measured steps to reduce, over a period of several years, legal immigration to levels more in line with historic norms than the million-plus our country has been absorbing annually for several years now.     This is good for the wages of average Americans, and good for the national interest because it ensures not only that the arriving immigrants have a better chance at assimilation and integration into the national polity, but also that local governments, schools, and social safety nets are better poised to absorb them.     One of the ways in which it whittles down the numbers is by eliminating certain categories of chain migration that make little sense, such as visa categories for extended family members (as opposed to the nuclear family).     The bill also eliminates the absurd and ill-considered visa lottery, a system that is the immigration equivalent of casting dollars into the wind, using visas instead.     And it amends the cap on 'refugee' admissions and adjustments of status, which under the [Obummer regime] reached unheard-of levels.     This too is welcome given the disturbing frequency with which we have seen questions raised about the quality of [vetting/investigating/scrutinizing/screening], not to mention the positive proofs from time to time of refugees or their children becoming involved in terrorism or attempting to go abroad to join violent jihadist groups like al-Shabaab and ISIL/ ISIS/ Daesh/ IS/ caliphate.     Senator Jeff Sessions once spoke of a 'humble populism' that should underlie immigration legislation.     While the word populism may be in bad odor in some quarters, I think of this concept of humble populism as a different proposition; it is simply something that recognizes the importance of the increasingly forgotten men and women who make up our country, including those with immigrant roots, and who only want to be able to leave for their children the chance for a better life, as their parents did for them.     It seems to me that senators Perdue and Cotton have recognized that fact.     The RAISE Act stands as a promise to the American people; let us hope that their colleagues act promptly and positively to move this bill to the House for action."

There are about 1,989 miles of the USA-Mexico border, a sum of roughly 7,500-8K miles of total USA land borders.   Less than 700 miles have apprently been fenced, and much of that is either not maintained or completely inadequate to discourage foot or vehicular traffic.   This after some 31 years after the congress-critters and executive departments assured the citizenry that the USA borders (and ports) would be secured within a reasonable time-table.   If they had fenced merely 300 miles per year it would have been complete by now, leaving time for maintenance and replacement, and the beginnings of a second fence with patrol-path between...jgo

the emasculated West's death wish
"One of the most important stories related to the 2001 September 11 attacks was the one that was deliberately left largely untold.   That story is the response of some Muslims in America to the massacre of nearly 3K people by Islamic supremacists in New York, Washington and Pennsylvania.   According to a Washington Post article published on 2001 September 18, in Jersey City, New Jersey, across the river from the destroyed World Trade Center, 'Within hours of the two jetliners plowing into the World Trade Center, law enforcement authorities detained and questioned a number of people who were allegedly seen celebrating the attacks and holding tail-gate-style parties on rooftops while they watched the devastation on the other side of the river.'   The New York Post reported on 2001 September 15, that Muslim Americans in Patterson, NJ were also seen celebrating the attacks.   Word-of-mouth reports abounded in the weeks and months following September 11 of spontaneous celebrations carried out that day in Dearborn, Michigan, in Virginia and other Muslim American communities.   The most notable aspect of the published reports of the celebrations was that there were so few of them.   After all, the notion that any Muslim Americans would celebrate the jihadist attack was certainly newsworthy..."

WND
"...Whether the roll-out of the president's temporary travel ban was ill-prepared or not, and whether one agrees or not about [the need for universal or selective conscientious] [vetting/investigating/scrutinizing/screening], the president's authority in the matter of protecting the borders and keeping out those he sees as potentially dangerous is universally conceded.   That a district judge would over-rule the president of the United States of America on a matter of border security in wartime is absurd.   When politicians don black robes and seize powers they do not have, they should be called out for what they are -- usurpers and petty tyrants.   And if there is a cause upon which the populist right should unite, it is that elected representatives and executives make the laws and rule the nation.   Not judges, and not justices..."

**** H-1B hiring: bias within vias, discrimination within discrimination ****
alternate link
"The employers in the H-1B program (for foreign college grad workers, mostly in 'IT') say that they must have unlimited access to the world's best and brightest or else America's advances in technology will come to a screeching halt.   But what they, do, in fact, is to hire a remarkably high percentage of their workers who just happen to be: Young, Male, and From just 3 southern Indian states.   The employers' objective, of course, is to cut costs, taking hundreds of thousands of good jobs from residents of the United States of America.   Residents of Andhra Pradesh, Tamil Nadu, and Karnataka, as we will show, have 241 times the chance of being hired as an H-1B as the average resident of the world, excluding USA workers, who, of course, have zero chance of being hired in this program.   By definition, no USA citizen or green card holder can be hired under the H-1B program; it is totally for alien workers, those called nonimmigrants.   The program, 100%, all day/all night/all year discriminates against [USA citizens].   The H-1B program does not just discriminate against [USA citizens] generally (including Asian-Americans) it discriminates in favor of aliens from Asia.   According to State Department statistics, 60% of the world's population lives in Asia, but 86.7% of the new H-1Bs in 2015 came from Asia...   [Nationality:] India, who account for 69.4% of all H-1Bs...   sex...   age...   religion...   region...   states...   caste..."

the good news in the battle over enforcement of immigration laws
"...'In order to protect Americans, the United States must ensure that those admitted to this country do not bear hostile attitudes toward it and its founding principles.   The United States of America cannot, and should not, admit those who do not support the Constitution, or those who would place violent ideologies over American law.   In addition, the United States of America should not admit those who engage in acts of bigotry or hatred (including «honor» killings, other forms of violence against women, or the persecution of those who practice religions different from their own) or those who would oppress Americans of any race, gender, or sexual orientation.'   Weingarten points out that criticism of the executive order in the days following its signing has been devoid of any mention of the imperative to admit solely those who respect our constitution as the supreme law of the land.   Nary a peep has been raised by the executive order's opponents about 'violent ideology'.   Nor have we heard even a whimper about the need to prevent those who would subjugate and commit violence against women, gays, and non-believers in a specific faith from coming to our shores observes Ben Weingarten.   Leftist opponents of the executive order will read into the above paragraph only language meant to discriminate against Muslims, and thus bigotry in the eyes of its drafters and supporters.   Of course, and this is vitally important, implicit in this assumption is a recognition that such beliefs flourish in the Islamic world..."

  "...millions of families in our cities & towns, & on the farms, have been lifted from poverty or near-poverty to a status where they can enjoy what has been traditionally considered a middle-class way of life: decent clothes for all, an opportunity to buy a better automobile, install an electric refrigerator, provide the house-wife with a decently attractive kitchen, go to the dentist, pay insurance premiums, & so on indefinitely." --- Frederick Lewis Allen 1952 _The Big Change_ pg 213 (quoted in Robert J. Samuelson 1995 _The Good Life & Its Discontents_ pg 37)

Judson Phillips _Washington DC Times_
will classical liberals & other non-leftists vigorously advance their positions politically, instead of wimping out at the first hint of leftist opposition?
The fact is that the leftists have established crony socialist taps on tax-victim funds, and many wealthy financial backers, who have thousands of "community organizers" on a steady pay-roll, and hundreds of thousands of useful idiots all lined up and in their data-bases, ready to be "mobilized".   Classical liberals, in contrast, are independent.   They may make a small contribution when family finances allow, and, given enough notice, may be able to get to a rally if it seems well worthwhile.   But they don't have a fleet of buses and vans and drivers lined up, with pick-up locations and routes planned.   Unlike the left, they don't own bull-horns and screen printing operations, though they might have some markers and a couple pieces of corrugated card-board, and masks.   They might send an e-mail message to a few friends and relatives, or a note trough the snail.   But it would be a disruption, and cost them money they do not have to spare to do much more, and they consider those leftist rioters to be rude even when they are not criminal, so shun the thought of confronting them.

  "Having a world full of diverse & redundant proposers, supporters, & critics is what makes the advance of science & technology reliable.   Having more proposers makes good proposals more common; having more critics makes bad proposals more vulnerable.   Better, more numerous ideas are the result." --- K.
