U.S. Chamber of
 [Breitbart] The U.S. Chamber of Commerce has posted two billboards in front of the White House which declare America was built by foreign ’Dreamers,’ not by native-born Americans, who apparently have no place in the billboards or in America’s society. "It is absolutely an insult to Americans, but the Chamber knows that, which is why this isn’t a broad-based campaign" conducted outside Washington D.C., said Mark Krikorian, director at the Center for Immigration Studies. He continued:The implicit message is that immigrants are better than Americans, that Americans are the supporting players, and the immigrants are the stars. It really is kind of the idea that immigrants are somehow magical people, not normal humans with all the strengths and weaknesses and foibles of regular people, that they are somehow magical... Don’t American kids have dreams? [Silicon valley creators] David Packard and Bill Hewlett were not immigrants. Bill Gates wasn’t an immigrant. Tom Watson [founder] of IBM wasn’t an immigrant. Obviously immigration is an important part of America’s story, but it is just one part. Posted by: Hupeting Sforza8196 2017-11-16 |
