Oh no doubt. Like I mentioned above it also matters how it gets presented, sometimes it’s behind your back when you’re not looking. How it works over here is government creates a problem, then gets people to demand they fix-it. Government to the rescue fixing what they deliberately broke.

Take our southern border instance. Massive immigration problem, loss of control at the border (government creates the problem). Media gins up a little hysteria. People demand they fix it. Government to the rescue with H.R. 2640 Border Security and Enforcement Act of 2023 and the sheep doth rejoice!

But if the sheep bothered to take a closer look, lo and behold they’ll see their shepherd sneaks in “and requires DHS to create an electronic employment eligibility confirmation system modeled after the E-Verify system and requires all employers to use the system.”

Yep that’s right! In the rush to fix the border, it has added that if ANYONE in the U.S. wants a job they’ll need to be verified by the government. It could be used to enforce government mandates, make sure you take your medicine, simply limit job prospects because of whatever the government doesn’t like at the time with just one click of a button.

Hell, I had to use e-verify just to get a goddamn fishing license today. How screwed up is that? I guess this is what Biden meant when he said powerful electronic surveillance tools were better because walls don’t work right?

Shown Here:

It basically reinstates Trump’s border policy regarding illegal immigrants. But then down at the bottom those shifty bastards sneak in E-verify for EVERYONE.

Introduced in House (04/17/2023)
Border Security and Enforcement Act of 2023

This bill addresses issues regarding immigration and border security, including by imposing limits to asylum eligibility.

For example, the bill

limits asylum eligibility to non-U.S. nationals (aliens under federal law) who arrive in the United States at a port of entry;

allows for the removal of a non-U.S. national to a country other than that individual's country of nationality or last lawful habitual residence, whereas currently this type of removal may only be to a country that has an agreement with the United States for such removal;

expands the types of crimes that may make an individual ineligible for asylum, such as a conviction for driving while intoxicated causing another person's serious bodily injury or death;

requires a fee of at least $50 for each asylum application, except for certain applications involving an unaccompanied alien child;

authorizes the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) to suspend the introduction of certain non-U.S. nationals at an international border if DHS determines that the suspension is necessary to achieve operational control of that border;

prohibits states from imposing licensing requirements on immigration detention facilities used to detain minors;

authorizes immigration officers to permit an unaccompanied alien child to withdraw their application for admission into the United States even if the child is unable to make an independent decision to withdraw the application;
imposes additional penalties for overstaying a visa;

and requires DHS to create an electronic employment eligibility confirmation system modeled after the E-Verify system and requires all employers to use the system.
Personally I would rather they just build a wall and patrol it. Unfortunately people who think that were called vile names like extremists, racists, fomenting hate, or simply against the wall because Trump was for it, etc. etc. Which seems another means by which government gets what it wants. By pitting the ignorant and easily amused morons against each other.
