Mercnbeth -> RE: Legally Illegal? (5/16/2006 3:35:50 PM)

I’ve sent a letter to every politician who “represents” me. The local Mayor, Congressman, Senators, and yes, even President Bush; all were asked the same question. Why can’t we enforce our borders and the laws concerning the borders by making the cost of deportation the imposed fine for hiring a person who is in the country illegally? I did not receive one response that wasn’t a form letter that included solicitation of campaign money. In keeping with my philosophy of voting against any incumbent, I made sure that a few dollars went to any candidate running against anyone who solicited funds.
I won’t downplay my own argument and disgust with the current administration, by reverting to name calling, but last night President Bush’s speech made me think of the main character from the Who’s rock opera ‘Tommy’. He seemed “deaf – dumb – blind” to the citizens he represents. Unfortunately there is no voice of reason on the other side of the aisle.
Before going to the crux of this post maybe someone more intelligent than me can differentiate between the result of a “guest worker program” and “amnesty”? Not the difference in the words but the difference by the result of the words.
But in keeping with the “guest worker” concept I’ve decided to run with the concept and expand it into a business opportunity. Coming soon, via an on-line correspondence program that I’m writing you too can enjoy “guest worker” status. Are you the product of a poor upbringing where you didn’t have the opportunity to attend a good school? Were you’re a product of a family without the means or ability to pay for your college education? Were you just too dumb to get into graduate school or, unlike Senator Kennedy or President Bush, didn’t have a proper “legacy” to get into Yale or Harvard? Do you just not want to take the time, study, and go through all that’s necessary to legally call yourself a Doctor? Well then, why not sign up for a “guest Doctor” certificate.
Why should the unfortunate occurrence of your birth stop you from being “all that you can be” and all you WANT to be? There is a shortage of Doctors. There are some locations where Doctors don’t want to work, not just in remote areas of Appalachia, but clinics are closing throughout LA due to no Doctors wanting to work for “low wages” in these areas. “Low Wages” – are defined by $75,000/year for a new resident. Similar to the Mexican day laborer “guest workers”, who take jobs that, “no American will take” I propose sending “guest Doctors” into the same areas and clinics closed because of the extraordinary number of illegal aliens; solving two problems with one solution.
If you’ve “played doctor” as a kid, or still do, why not put your skills to work? You too can be a “guest Doctor”! Just hang out your Guest Doctor shingle and start “practicing”. Why worry about the legality? “Legal” is a matter of perspective and ultimately being “illegal” is just someone else’s warped idea of integrity and honor. One of the arguments heard yesterday regarding the legitimacy of “rights” of illegal aliens was that originally all of California belonged to them. After 5 or 6 generations they want it back. Reasonable - Lets run with the idea.
Most likely somewhere in your history someone in your family history was a Doctor or involved in the medical profession. Remember in the past barbers were the first general practice doctors. The barber pole colors, red, white, blue (US) symbolize the bandages used during the medical procedures they performed. The idea makes more sense in this application in the medical profession where traditionally the family practice was handed down from one generation to the next? Why bother with schooling or passing a test to make it “legal”? You are entitled!
The “Merc School of Professional Guest Workers” will help research your genealogy and we GUARANTEE that we’ll find someone who was related to you that was in the medical profession. We hope to be open in time for the fall semester. I’m also considering a “Guest Dentist”, “Guest CPA”, “Guest Engineer”, and a “George Costanza Guest Architect” program. I was considering a “Guest Attorney” program, but after doing some research realized that we already have millions working with that status active in the US. Many of them are currently holding political office.
I’m also looking for people to open an undergraduate division for the “Guest Police” “Guest Fireman”, and “Guest Teacher” programs.

HISTORICAL BARBER REFERENCE
Red for the bandage stained with blood during the operation and white for the clean bandages. These bandages were hung out on the pole to dry after washing. As the bandages blew in the wind, they would twist together to form the spiral pattern similar to the stripes in the modern day barber pole. The bloodstained bandages emerged as the emblem of the barber-surgeon’s profession. Later in time, the emblem was replaced by a painted wooden pole of red and white stripes. These colors are recognized as the true colors of the barber emblem. Red, white and blue are widely used in America due in part to the fact that the national flag used these colors. Another interpretation of these barber pole colors is that red represents arterial blood, blue us symbolic of venous blood and white depicts the bandage.
