Yes I believe in minimal government intrusion, not no intrusion at all. -----Original Message----- From: Dana [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Sunday, August 12, 2007 3:19 AM To: CF-Community Subject: Re: Gas Station Jihad?
so wait. I am not trying to give you a hard time here, honest. But aren't you the one who advocates a minimum of government regulation? Or do I have you mixed up with Gruss? By the way, I have no particular agenda in terms of illegal aliens. They are illegal for a start, which is cartainly a problem any way you look at it. But I'd like to stay rooted in reality if possible. If illegal aliens are getting government benefits, I am not sure how. One of the big problems for my local emergency room is that if say a truck full of illegal aliens flips over on the highway, UNMH is shock-trauma for the entire state, and those illegal aliens don't have insurance and are going back to Mexico once they are patched up, so it's a lot of uncompensated care. However. >From what I have seen and read, most illegal aliens, here anyway, seem to be self-employed. If this is true it would seem they add value to the economy if anything. http://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=881584 On 8/11/07, Loathe <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Not pay the least at the cost of the law. > > No. > > -----Original Message----- > From: Dana [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Saturday, August 11, 2007 10:05 PM > To: CF-Community > Subject: Re: Gas Station Jihad? > > it shouldn't be the employers place to do what?
