Not everyone is as smart as the average American conservative. Some liberals and moderates think when Obama talks gun control he wants to keep you safe. Really. Many think his photoshopped BC is a true copy of his real BC and he only used Photoshop to make it a bit more authentic.
Some hear government officials say we have only 12 million illegal immigrants in our country. Funny thing: The same officials were saying that in 2006. Funny how these immigrants never have children and they stopped entering the US in 2006. They must be the slowest-breeding group on the planet and they must also all have decided it is not worth coming to the US.
But moderates (the kind who vote for John McCain) and liberals are also the slowest thinking people on the planet, so there are a lot of interesting stats here.
For example, they think that we can keep running up deficits and borrowing from China and our progeny indefinitely and nothing bad will happen. The Fed can print til its heart's content and hyperinflation will not happen.
Why not you ask?
Because this is America, they say. Bernanke went to Harvard. It can't happen here, especially if he says it won't. He is brilliant and doesn't need math. Just like the Germans once knew it couldn't happen in the Weimar Republic. They were true believers whose army belt buckles spelled out Gott mit uns, God with us. We are God's people and the bad guys can't hurt us. Famous last words.
But notwithstanding the protests of liberals with liberally sized dimwittedness, and moderates with moderately sized minds, a simple set of calculations shows that there must be at least 40 million illegals here.
As set forth in the article below.
Oh, for those liberals reading this, I have to admit the article is flawed: It is based on mathematics, not rocket science.
The next amnesty would apply to at least 40 million illegal aliens
Since President Barack Obama was reelected a month ago, the leadership of both the Republican and Democrat Parties have been telling the American people that now is the time to legalize all of those now living here illegally.
Just how many so-called 'new Americans' are we talking about?
For many years, the federal government told us that there were 12 million illegal aliens living in the United States. However, the actual number is more than likely, three to four times as high.
The way the feds arrive at their numbers is as absurd as their assertion that we can maintain law and order without actually defending our borders.
In 1986, under the Immigration Regulation and Control Act, President Ronald Reagan granted amnesty to the nation’s illegal alien population. At the time, we were told that population was about 1.5 million. However, amnesty was actually granted to three million of those who crossed our borders illegally.
Washington arbitrarily estimates that every year since 1986, a half million illegal aliens take up residence in this country, either by over-staying their visa or by crossing into this country illegally. Additionally, they believe that the one million illegal aliens who did not qualify for the 1986 Amnesty (many were criminals), simply stayed anyway.
When you multiply a half million by 25 years, then add the additional million criminal aliens to the total, you have 13.5 million illegal aliens.
Then, in 2010, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) announced that the number of illegal aliens in the United States had dropped to only 10.8 million.
Of course, that figure was only an estimate, and considering the source…questionable at best.
DHS Secretary Janet Napolitano said that the new number could be attributed to tougher enforcement measures, and has repeatedly claimed that 35 percent of the U.S./Mexican border is now "effectively controlled."
The claim was seen by many as merely another ploy to sell amnesty legislation to the American people who have consistently, and overwhelmingly rejected the legalization of millions of criminal aliens.
However, using the Border Patrol's own data, the numbers being presented publicly by the federal government seem rather implausible.
Between 1987 and 2005, the average annual number of apprehensions made at the U.S./Mexican border was roughly 1.3 million, with arrests reaching a peak of 1.6 million in 2000.
Over the last few years, that number has dropped.
Between 2006 and 2010, the average annual number of apprehensions was roughly 650,000.
While many individual Border patrol agents estimate that for every one illegal crosser they catch, another seven or even ten successfully enter the U.S., those reports are difficult to substantiate as no agent is willing to go on record with such inflammatory data.
However, in June 2010, former president of the National Border Patrol Council, T.J. Bonner told Fox News that for every person caught trying to enter this country illegally over the U.S./Mexican border…at least two more successfully make it here.
"We’re about 33 percent effective. It's like shoveling sand against the tide," said Bonner.
So, using Bonner’s rather conservative estimate, 41.8 million illegal aliens have entered the U.S. since the 1986 amnesty.
When one considers the relative ease with which drug smugglers and illegal aliens make multiple crossings into this country, and the lackluster immigration enforcement of every administration since that of Dwight D. Eisenhower, it is safe to assume that the actual figure is even higher.
The Obama administration claimed to that they deported close to 400,000 individuals in 2010.
But, not all of those deported actually entered the country illegally. DHS also deports those who entered the country legally on legitimate visas, but who either committed a crime while here or simply overstayed their visa.
So, we do not know exactly how many removals involved those who crossed into the U.S., by eluding the Border Patrol. However, when the DHS is deporting 400,000 foreign nationals while an estimated 1 million crossed the border illegally that same year…it is obvious that the federal government is losing ground each and every year.
Furthermore, when you consider that all of the amnesty bills proposed since 2006, contain a provision to eventually allow each amnestied illegal alien, to then bring 4 to 5 relatives to the U.S., you are looking at a truly astounding number of individuals.
If Congress does pass an amnesty bill, the resulting chain-migration could translate into an additional 200 million new U.S. citizens, or legal residents, practically overnight.
Such an action would overwhelm the public schools, our healthcare and court systems and result in the destruction of the Social Security program.
In short, as Obama has promised...it would "fundamentally transform" this country and secure our place among the list of history's failed societies.
