  "There is a most absurd & audacious Method of reasoning avowed by some Bigots & Enthusiasts, & through Fear assented to by some wiser & better Men; it is this.   They argue against a fair Discussion of popular Prejudices, because, say they, tho' they would be found without any reasonable Support, yet the Discovery might be productive of the most dangerous Consequences.   Absurd & blasphemous Notion!   As if all Happiness was not connected with the Practice of Virtue, which necessarily depends upon the Knowledge of Truth." --- Edmund Burke _A Vindication of Natural Society_ (quote in Richard J. Herrnstein & Charles Murray 1994 _The Bell Curve: Intelligence & Class Structure in American Life_)

  "No truly scientific result has ever been reached through group decisions & majority rule.   The whole history of modern science in the West evidences the fact that no majorities, no tyrants, no constraint can prevail in the long run against individuals whenever the latter are able to prove in some definite way that their own scientific theories work better than others & that their own view of things solves problems & difficulties better than others, regardless of the number, the authority, or the power of the latter.   Indeed, the history of modern science, if considered from this POV, constitutes the most convincing evidence of the failure of decision groups & group decisions based on some coercive procedure & more generally of the failure of constraint exercised over individuals as a pretended means of promoting scientific progress & of achieving scientific results." --- Bruno Leoni 1991 _Freedom & the Law_ pg 148

media feign ignorance about real, even obvious, dangers of open borders
"...First, Trump's comments, made during a Saturday rally in Florida: 'You look at what's happening in Germany [and the UK and Austria and Italy and France].   You look at what's happening last night in Sweden.   Sweden, who would believe this? Sweden.   They took in large numbers.   They're having problems like they never thought possible.'...   The story on Fox came by way of an interview on Tucker Carlson's show with documentary filmmaker Ami Horowitz, whose latest work chronicles surging crime rates in Sweden.   As Fox's Ed Henry and Carlson reported, some have tied the hike in crime with the hike in 'refugees' from Africa, Asia and the Middle East.   Horowitz said that the 'majority of the population in Sweden still wants to have an open door policy' for 'refugees', despite the fact numbers clearly show a surge in gun violence and rape in the country at the exact same time the doors opened wide to migrants.   He also said the government has moved in some cases to cover up these crime hikes.   'There's been a rash of these rapes at music festivals', Horowitz said, '[which the authorities] will cover up.'...   He then spoke of the wealth of benefits that are provided for refugees, which is why they seek to come to Sweden in the first place, and said it was that entitlement system that was helping fuel the crime rate... '...those statistics are clear about who are the perpetrators.'..."

further considering president Trump's executive orders
"...I've already expressed my sense that it was a pointless exercise for the courts to ask for evidence that nationals from the (six/seven?) countries specified in the EO constitute a risk to the public.   But I also can't help feeling a sense of dismay that the Department of Justice (DoJ) lawyers representing the administration in court couldn't [off-the-tops-of-their-heads while on-the-spot] identify any nationals from those countries who had engaged in terrorism...   Surely they could have anticipated the question, however inappropriate it may be in the real world; [afterwards] my colleague Jessica Vaughan certainly had no trouble identifying more than 70 such individuals, and that figure errs on the low side out of caution.   How is it that our federal government can't put their fingers on that data in an instant's time [in a court-room], given all that has happened since 2001/09/11?   Having said that, though, I find myself wondering why this preoccupation with concrete proof didn't cut in both directions.   How is it that the State of Washington was able to justify legal standing in the case based on a vague and insubstantial argument that the suspension of visas or entry of nationals from those countries would deprive state universities of foreign students and scholars?   It has always been my understanding that standing in a case was supposed to be based on actual, or at least imminent, damage.   Why did the judges not demand proof in the form of lists for alien students and scholars denied entry to the United States to attend those institution?...   Then there is the important fact that institutions of higher learning are only authorized to accept foreign students and scholars on sufferance of the federal government.   No institution of higher learning, public or private, has an intrinsic and inviolable right to the presence of foreign students or exchange scholars from any country on its campus or in its research programs (many of which, by the way, are federally funded).   A small program called the Student-Exchange Visitor Program (SEVP), within Immigration and Customs Enforcement (USA ICE), which is in turn a Department of Homeland Security (DHS) agency, exercises the power delegated by the DHS secretary to grant, deny, or withdraw authority to institutions of learning to accept foreign students.   Under such circumstances how can an institution argue that the executive order deprives it of something that is not a foundational right, but a privilege that can be rescinded for cause?..."

how employer/sponsors game the H-1B visa program for cheap, young, pliant, easily intimidated, low-skilled labor with flexible ethics
"...The reality is the Dallas Morning News provided a typical example of how companies other than 'out-sourcing firms' [domestic and cross-border bodyshoppers and off-shorers abuse] H-1B for cheap labor but the newspaper missed the significance of what they had...   All 13 applications have the same job code making it easy to look up the prevailing wage for Dallas in the Foreign Labor Certification Data Center On-line Library, where we find the average salary for this job is $101,566.
Area Code: 19124.
Area Title: Dallas-Plano-Irving, TX Metropolitan Division.
GeoLevel: 1.
OES/SOC Code: 15-1132.
OES/SOC Title: Software Developers, Applications.
Level 1 Wage: $33.09 hour -- $68,827 year.
Level 2 Wage: $40.96 hour -- $85,197 year.
Level 3 Wage: $48.83 hour -- $101,566 year.
Level 4 Wage: $56.70 hour -- $117,936 year.
Mean Wage (H-2B): $48.83 hour -- $101,566 year.
The average wage that Axxess would have to pay on the open job market for these workers would is $101,566.   Yet the average wage for these 13 positions is just $79,644.54.   Only 1 of the 13 positions is for slightly more ($105,000.00) than the average wage for occupation in the Dallas area.   By going H-1B, Axxess saves $21,921.46 a year per worker.   This is all legal thanks to congress and its 4-tier, skill-based 'prevailing wage' system.   Axxess has classified 7 of the 13 workers at the lowest skill level where the 'prevailing wage' is the 17th percentile and the other 6 at the next skill level where the prevailing wage is the 34th percentile.   By classifying these aliens as low-skilled, Access saves a bundle...   If we take Axxess's word that the workers represented on the LCA are the 'best of the best' then the company deviated from the truth on their submissions to the government.   If Axxess told the truth on the LCAs that these are workers whose skill is not sufficient to command the average wage, then it told a whopper to the Dallas Morning News about their H-1B hiring.   Either way Axxess makes out like a bandit by using H-1B to hire foreign workers on the cheap.   Axxess whined to the Dallas Morning news that:   '...the company posted jobs on its web-site and job boards and reached out to Texas universities [but apparently did not purchase even one-eighth page display ads in Phoenix or Austin or Houston or Oklahoma City or Kansas City or Atlanta or Raleigh or Miami or Boston or Philadelphia or Pittsburgh or Cincinnati or Columbus or Cleveland or Indianapolis or Chicago...] but struggled to find enough candidates with needed skills, like fluency in advanced programming languages.'   Duh! When your company is looking for 'advanced' skills [and there are no 'advanced' tools or techniques mentioned in available records] but pays substantially less than average ([about $22K per year less than average]), of course you are going to struggle to find people..."

what I saw in Sweden last week is not right
"...As we drove around the housing estates at night, it became clear the problems in these areas: drugs, rape, police assaults and more, were created in large part by state-sponsored 'multi-culturalism'.   Sweden's liberal migration policies, that is to say a failure to maintain any sort of border control at all over the past few decades, have led to ghettoised communities that the state props up with generous welfare payments and socialist lecturing.   Sign posts on noticeboards advertised for left wing political parties, and as we passed by a mural of a mosque and parked up at the Herregarden housing estate, a couple of girls we asked for directions signed off, 'Good luck there!'   'Fantastic.', I thought.   It being below freezing with a bitter wind, there were few people out of the streets.   A few hijab-clad women scurried between buildings, sometimes with children in tow.   Not one would speak to us, or look at us, at all.   'Maybe they don't know what I'm saying in Swedish.', my guide remarked.   And it would make sense that they didn't.   Some estimates put the population of Herregarden's housing estates at 96% foreign born or of foreign background.   A few men shuffled out of a basement, again unwilling or unable to speak.   I later came to find out from a former police officer in the city that they were likely attending what is referred to as a 'cellar mosque' -- an underground, basement place of prayer and preaching often unknown to authorities..."

big H-1B employer/sponsor (USA STEM professional displacer) joins Trump job-creation hoopla
"...how many of the 15K new jobs will be filled with unemployed/underemployed citizen or green card programmers? Accenture does not say.   It is useful to recall a bit of the firm's history; it was started by a Norwegian-American named Arthur Andersen in the Midwest, grew to be one of the big five accounting firms, assured everyone that things were just fine at Enron, and then it was forced to discard its founder's name and become Accenture and located its (perhaps nominal) world headquarters to Dublin in order to receive huge corporate tax breaks, all at the expense of the [USA tax-victim].   Along the way it moved into the 'IT' business and began providing contract workers to various USA employers.   According to 2016 Department of Labor data collected by Myvisajobs.com, its average annual salary was $77,953, the sixth among the top 10 H-1B employers, and considerably less than Microsoft's $122,641.   Google, 12th largest of the H-1B employers that year, paid an average of $127,898.   Despite the firm's Norwegian heritage, its Irish connections, and its prosperous business in the USA, no Irish, nor Norwegians, nor [USA citizens, nor green card grantees] need apply for its H-1B jobs.   USA workers are, by definition not eligible for H-1B, and Accenture, as we reported in an earlier posting, had an H-1B work-force that was 95.4% from India.   (Its much larger non-H-1B workforce is presumably more diverse.)   Other out-sourcing firms [domestic and cross-border bodyshops and off-shoring operations] had even higher percentages of Indian nationals in their H-1B hirings, undermining the 'IT' industry's argument that it needed access to the world's 'best and brightest'.   Fortune, while skipping over the awkward facts noted above, did say, 'Accenture has been a leader in the outsourcing business, which some Trump supporters might see as having contributed to moving USA jobs over-seas.'   This non-Trump supporter is certain outsourcing is devastating to the citizens and green card holders who are barred from good jobs by the H-1B program."

nothing is free

[Scientist and SF writer Robert Anson Heinlein and economist Milton Friedman made the adage, "There ain't no such thing as a free lunch." (TANSTAAFL) famous.]   "Professor Friedman could have added that there is a difference between something's being free and something's having a zero price.   For example, people say that there's free public education and there are free libraries, but public education and libraries cost money.   Proof that they have costs is the fact that somebody has to have less of something by giving up tax money so that schools and libraries can be produced and operated.   A much more accurate statement is that we have zero-price public education and libraries.   Costs can be concealed but not eliminated.   If people ignore costs and look only to benefits, they will do darn near anything, because everything has a benefit.   Politicians love the fact that costs can easily be concealed.   The call for import restrictions, in the name of saving jobs, is politically popular in some quarters.   But few talk about the costs..."

why it has been 31 years since the last tax reform
OTOH, the 1986 "reforms" encouraged bodyshopping, discouraged free-lancing, decreased USA citizen privacy.   "Reforms" in 1980 and 1982 harmed job markets by reducing incentives to bring in job candidates for interviews from around the country, reduced new-hire training, reduced relocation of employees, and thus also encouraged "hit the ground running" hiring and quick disposal, i.e. bodyshopping, contingent employment, temping, contracting, consulting.   I cannot think of any tax and monetary changes since at least 1912 that did not encourage over-taxing, over-spending, excessive federal and state government debt.

  "The notion that our gov't should be able to take wealth away from human beings who created it by means of their labor & then redistribute that income to whomever the gov't sees fit is not only ridiculous, it is un-American.   The jury system, if effectively brought back, would protect us against this pernicious practice which is sapping the vitality of our nation.   Prior to 1913, we took better care of the needy than we do in 1988.   We did it because we cared & we had control over our own personal money." --- Michael Louis Minns 1989 _The UnderGround Lawyer_

toward a true USA-Israel alliance
"...David Goldman...bemoans the self-imposed evisceration of America's capacity to develop the knowledge it requires to regain the technological advantage over the Chinese and the Russians.   In his words, 'The national laboratories are hollowed out, and the major corporate laboratories (at IBM, the Bell System, General Electric, and RCA among others) that contributed significantly to defense R&D during the Cold War no longer exist.   Within the shrinking defense R&D budget, a disproportionate share has been squandered on the F-35, a poorly conceived and executed weapons system with the highest price tag in defense history.'   And it won't be easy to rebuild them. For [over 30] years, the USA has not only shut down its own laboratories, it has done little to encourage its citizens to acquire the knowledge they need to rebuild that capacity...   [One-half to two-thirds of USA STEM talent is being wasted in non-STEM employment and unemployment while a broad stream of USA technology and research techniques have been flowing to India and Red China.]..."

what is missing from CPAC; the RINO losership
"...Indeed, the Capitol Hill [losership] of the Republican Party, allegedly the political home of president Trump's [classical liberal-conservative-populist-libertarian] coalition was entirely absent from CPAC this year.   Fewer than half a dozen members of congress spoke at CPAC, and not one of them was a member of the House or senate leadership.   Last year speaker of the House Paul Ryan attended CPAC and delivered a powerful address about raising Americans out of poverty, this year he was MIA when he had the opportunity to commit to joining president Trump in doing so.   When senate majority-leader Mitch McConnell last attended CPAC it was 2014 and he was then the senate minority-leader facing a tough re-election campaign and an uncertain future for his senate Republican Conference.   In his remarks, McConnell suggested that Republicans could regain control of the senate after the 2014 mid-terms (they did) and that he'd be ready to lead the senate to accomplish a conservative agenda:   'If I am given the opportunity to lead the USA senate next year, I won't let you down.', he said [and then repeatedly let us down].   This year, when he had the opportunity to commit to joining president Trump in pursuing that [classical liberal-conservative-libertarian] agenda he too was MIA..."

  "One group of researchers reporting in 'Psychology Today' found that a single 30 minute program could significantly alter basic beliefs, related attitudes, & behavior of large numbers of people.   The researchers demonstrated that audiences could be caused to rethink even their fundamental values.   With curious optimism, they observe that the power of television could be used for good -- to bring freedom & equality into better balance.   But, they warned, there is a darker side: The same media techniques can be used -- indeed, I argue that they are -- to cause Americans to reject their precious rights." --- Gerry Spence _With Justice for None_ 1989

  "In a few days the Congress will stand at the fork of 2 roads.   One road is all too familiar to us.   It leads ultimately to higher taxes.   It merely brings us back full circle to the source of our economic problems, where the gov't decides that it knows better than you what should be done with your earnings &, in fact, how you should conduct your life.   The other road promises to renew the American spirit.   It's a road of hope & opportunity.   It places the direction of your life back in your hands where it belongs." --- Ronald Reagan 1981-07-27 "Federal Tax Reduction" (quoted in Stephen Skowronek 1993 _The Politics Presidents Make_ pg 421)
