ajtj99's Market Pulse

[jdaasoc]

I am so twisted when I took by 8 year old daughter to Ellis Island and when she asked why she couldn't visit other half of island that was undeveloped, I simply explained to her that half of Ellis island was where we held recent immigrants in prison before we expelled them back to their homelands because of their ideas and beliefs we found unacceptable. A sort of Gitmo in NY harbor for Communists and anarchists.

I am of the age of the last of the baby boomers -- 52. During high school in the 69-73, I couldn't find work after school that illegals today would refuse to take.
I figure that like aj said that state and local workers would lose some retirement benefits. Being someone who will follow 10 years worth of early retirees on SS, I am not expecting much hope for SS providing as much proportionally then what is being offered now.
