Pointing el Dedo : Those Damn Illegals are to Blame for Economic Meltdown

08:51 H | Topics: Blogs - Immigration - Internet - Media - Money

Need someone to blame for the economic downturn, for the mortgage crisis? Look no farther than Maria y Jose. That's right it's those damn illegal immigrants (or some would have you believe). After all they control the money and the system that controls that. No? DreamActivist writes over at The Sanctuary:

Why, don't you know, those migrant workers, low-income wage-earners, illegals in the military, undocumented students struggling to afford college, caused the financial collapse of Wall Street, Main Street, all streets!! Now we need a $700 billion dollar bailout for them!

Sylvia P also follows the path atras, as to who really is to blame.

It started with the ambitions of a single illegal alien.

That’s right. I said it. We have no time for political correctness now. If Sen. McCain can suspend his campaign, I can suspend my intelligence to state things plainly. And plainly, my investment banker siblings, it always starts with one.

And we ignored the signs, even when it appeared in the news way back when the Mexicans first began ousting CEOs.

So don't blame capitalism. That would be too easy and make too much sense, and we all know that in these complicated matters of finance and politics, nothing makes sense. Sylvia continues:

After that tumultuous time in 1979, we had not heard anything more about the illegal alien threat. Starting in 1982, we encountered new friends and slaves helpmates: the legal aliens. Friendly. Ambitious. Took care of our children. Limited English speaking skills… but that was okay! We could work with them to understand their intentions, subject them to our whims, and send them back home where they belonged. They were funny looking and not quite like us; but that’s why we cared for them and extended our hands in solidarity
