Wednesday is the long-celebrated Communist holiday known as May Day, and all of the usual suspects are gearing up for demonstrations and "protests". Look for heavy turnouts in New York City and around California in particular; in NYC, occutards plan to kick things off with a "solidarity march" in support of the Transport Workers Union, followed by an illegal alien "immigrant justice tour" and other activities. California can look forward to numerous demonstrations across the state by occutards and illegal aliens:
In California, large protests are expected because some undocumented immigrants and their supporters view this as their best chance in many years for immigration reform with a pathway to citizenship for millions of undocumented immigrants.
Meanwhile, as the "reform bill" pushed by the Gang of Eight continues to shuffle along toward passage, some interesting provisions have emerged; specifically, while it requires illegal aliens to pay a small fee, the businesses that have been employing them get a free pass:
Employers who have allowed illegal immigrants to work off the books can come forward safely and provide their work history without fear of prosecution, and businesses that knowingly employed someone using a bogus or stolen Social Security number likewise would get a pass, according to an analysis of the bill by the Center for Immigration Studies, a think tank that wants a crackdown on immigration.
And Nanny Pelosi has come out with a new "next pillar of government" (another entitlement): "free" childcare for all.
“I need your help on this because we talked about - Social Security a pillar of economic stability for America’s families,” Pelosi said at the City Club of Cleveland on April 15. “Medicare and Medicaid another pillar of health security. Affordable Care Act -another pillar, we put it in that league as making a difference. “
“What we have to do and not necessarily as, shall we say, as transformative as Social Security and Medicare and the Affordable Care Act for everybody– but I think very important to our country is to have affordable quality childcare for all of America’s children. If we are going to unleash all that women have to offer we have to really get to this point.”
She's absolutely convinced that we're never going to run out of other peoples' money to spend on entitlements and kickbacks. The fun just never stops. Suddenly, just about everything (except guns) are fundamental civil and human rights. Just ask Eric Holder.
