In the land of fruits and nuts, home of the Pelosi and the 9th
circuit court of appeals, there is an issue on hold that may be one of the most
logical attempts at enforcing employer compliance with the immigration laws of
this nation. This would be the no-match letters going to employers requiring
them to have their employees resolve discrepancies with the Social Security
Administration.
You would think this subject would be as controversial as
heterosexual sex and maybe that is the problem. It’s not anti-gay enough or we
didn’t discriminate against the minorities so the ACLU can get on their grand
stand and trumpet the egregious actions committed by the government. No they
are complaining because it is too comprehensive and inclusive. God forbid that
after spending their life’s savings to a smuggler, buying forged identities
(including forged or stolen Social Security Numbers), and entering this country
illegally might make us actually care about rectifying these discrepancies and
enforcing the immigration laws of this nation. No we’re concerned because it
might cause some illegal alien their job but we phrase it that it might cause
some one here legally their job because of database errors. Here is where the
court’s logic escapes me.
A legal employee you think would be concerned because at
some time in their life they might want to collect on their social security; especially
if they become disabled and are unable to work. The government gives a 90 day
grace period to resolve any discrepancies and safe harbor if there is a documented
appeal in progress. This sounds fair to me.
Let’s logically look at the database errors. You would think
the binary logic validating an invalid social security number would be a no “brainer.” If it isn’t in the
database and hasn’t been issued then why are you using this number? “Eets de
number I always youse.” When did you apply for a Social Security card? “I
dunno, I don’t member.” Where is your birth certificate or documents proving
you are entitled to work in the United States.
“Ize don’t has them, Ize undocumented.” Where is the first place you worked and
who was your employer? “Ize don’t member.” Well without documents, proof you
are entitled to work here, an employer you where started your initial
employment I can’t resolve this No-match. How old are you? “Ize 19.”
You and 30 other people are using the same Social security
number, where were you born. “Inze a hospital.” Where is your birth certificate?
“I no gots, Ize undocumented….”
Now showing the spine of a jelly fish the government asks
the court to defer a hearing or decision until the spring of this coming year so they
may revise and clarify the rules associated with the no match enforcement requirements.
This makes as much sense as Ramos and Compean in jail for defending our border
but that is what you get for the best government money can buy. I guess the
object of this action is to make us more in tune with our gay community by
ramming illegal immigration up the citizen’s butts!
