The USA Could Fix The Illegal Immigration Problem With One Law

You lefties would be the clowns spewing caca, BL. Illegals working as carpenters, plumbers, etc., in Houston are taking traditionally good paying jobs from American citizens as they simultaneously drive down wages in Houston, BL. You cannot outsource those jobs to Mexico City or Vietnam, BL. Those jobs have to be done in Houston, BL.

The Erie War

Shortly after the mid 19th century, Cornelius Vanderbilt set his mind to building a railroad empire: a monopoly. As part of that plan Vanderbilt intended to take over the Erie Railroad controlled by Daniel Drew, James Fisk and Jay Gould. After Vanderbilt had been swindled by Drew, Fisk and Gould in a stock fraud that prevented Vanderbilt from buying the Erie Railroad, he decided to undercut the market by cutting freight prices he charged for the railroads he already owned. Vanderbilt believed he could recoup his losses by setting the market price after he had established his railroad monopoly. Of course, Drew, Fisk and Gould responded by cutting the fares charged by the Erie. This tit-for-tat price cutting went on for a while, but then at one point Vanderbilt realized that the Erie RR was still charging a higher rate than he was, but it was still in business. Vanderbilt then discovered why. Drew, Fisk and Gould were buying freight (cattle) and shipping the cattle on Vanderbilt's railroads and making a considerable profit off the cheaply transported freight while Vanderbilt continued to suffer a financial loss. Eventually, however, the Erie did fail.

Without competition, monopolistic ventures (as exemplified by Vanderbilt) can charge what they want. It would be worse for this country if certain of those ventures were foreign owned and controlled.

I'm talking about illegals, terrorists, criminals, cartel guys, entitlement seekers and leeches, kid. I know you think these things are important to america. But they do nothing but lower the standard of living. Originally Posted by Buddys Place
