      SBInet’s Project 28 behind schedule and over budget

      Posted by angliss from Scholarsandrogues

      The Department of Homeland Security's virtual border fence prototype, Project 28, has finally been conditionally delivered - way late, over budget, and with significant Congressional restrictions. Now it's time to try effective immigration controls - like improving the lives of people in their own countries.

    • Un-becoming a citizen

      Posted by RussWellen from Scholarsandrogues

      "Very few Americans actually function as citizens anymore." Not only don't most of us care to be reminded of what we don't know about our government, neither have we much interest in acquiring that knowledge. Furthermore, "That foreign policy stuff is too complicated, man."

    Illegal Immigration Spurs Constitutional Amendment - Associated Content

    An art. V was tried in Sept. of 2004, and s.c.o.t.u.s. ruled it was ok for the congress to not allow it…so, the entire Congress was sued, and hired the Govt. to defend them..they again lost.

    However, it has now proved to be a criminal act ,in that they had basically admitted to it by defending themselves…...

    It appears now that there are a few new approaches to the Art. V , but not to many Attny’s are willing to stick their necks out fighting our own CROOKED govt.

    please read the article on WALKER vs theU.S….probably find it in google….

    B.C. apologizes for Komagata Maru incident

    I’m all for political correctness under most circumstances, but this one kind of reeks of political pandering to me. And misplaced pandering, at that. Why apologise now for that incident, when a whole bunch of injustices perpetrated to two larger Asian immigrant populations in BC – the Chinese and Japanese – remain unanswered? Were earlier apologies for specific incidents supposed to be blanket apologies?

    NPR: Bill Gates Targets Visa Rules for Tech Workers

    NPR let Gates dodge most of the questions refusing to follow up or request him to answer the question they asked. Gates kept returning to his talking points.

    Microsoft | Revamp visa system, Gates urges Congress | Seattle Times Newspaper

    Gates seemed to laugh before he answered the question about whether more H1B visa workers depress wages in the U.S. The laugh seems like a tell to me i.e. he’s lying.
