When AG Jeff Sessions announced that the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program was set to end, Chicago’s Mayor Rahm Emmanuel took the opportunity to further cement Chicago’s reputation as a city going downhill.
Racked by debt; unable to effectively manage its finances, and a shrinking population (due to people leaving in droves), Chicago is a perfect example of a city managed with a “progressive agenda” in mind.
Almost reveling in the opportunity to display his Liberal Credentials, Mayor Emmanuel, within hours of the announcement, held his own press conference to describe his plan for action:
“To all the Dreamers that are here in this room, and in the city of Chicago, you are welcomed in the city of Chicago. This is your home and you have nothing to worry about,” he began.
“Chicago, our schools, our neighborhoods, our city, as it relates to what President Trump said, will be a Trump-free zone. You have nothing to worry about.”
“So, to all those who are part of what are referred to as DACA, or ‘Dreamers’, you will always be ‘Dreamers’ in the eyes of the city of Chicago because you have big dreams and we want to be a part of those dreams,” Emanuel said.
Is this the response of a serious politician? Is there anything in here that looks set to even remotely benefit the citizens of Chicago? The fact that even mentions the Chicago schools being open to more students shows a complete lack of reality. Just this year: “State legislators also failed to approve a stand-alone kindergarten through 12th-grade education budget that was vital to the operations of the financially struggling Chicago school system, Reuters reported. A $15.7 billion bill to ensure schools open in the fall passed the Senate but was soundly defeated in the House.”
People are leaving Chicago (and Illinois). Of the nation’s 10 most populous cities, Chicago was the only one to actually see a drop in population (and this if for the second year in a row).
Check out this assessment by the Chicago Tribune:
“The Chicago metropolitan area as a whole lost 19,570 residents in 2016, registering the greatest loss of any metropolitan area in the country. It’s the area’s second consecutive year of population loss: In 2015, the region saw its first decline since at least 1990, losing 11,324 people. By most estimates, the Chicago area’s population will continue to decline in the coming years.”
And here are the main reasons:
“Over the past year, the Tribune surveyed dozens of former residents who’ve packed up in recent years and they cited a variety of reasons: high taxes, the state budget stalemate, crime, the unemployment rate and weather. Census data released Thursday suggests the root of the problem is in the city of Chicago and Cook County: The county in 2016 had the largest loss of any county nationwide, losing 21,324 residents.”
Yet the Mayor is set to go head to head with the Federal government.
Chicago has a place in almost everyone’s heart, amazing history, sports, people, and culture…and it’s all being flushed away by economic mismanagement and disastrous policies designed to help anyone but American citizens.
Chicago is now a “Trump-Free Zone” – Mayor Emmanuel Oversees the Destruction of a City
Views:
And as usual, nobody is considering middle ground options.
Why not revoke their special privileges (there’s just no reason why they should have those!), and offer those who haven’t done anything wrong (they can’t be blamed for the deeds of their parents) a path to legal residency?
And maybe a path to legal residency for their parents if they never did anything wrong after entering the country AND they supply the authorities with information about who employed them so all the lost tax revenues, SS payments and all can be collected with fines?
If you want to limit illegal immigration, make it unattractive to their potential employers — make them pay.
Yes, the deeds should be laid at the feet of the parents. The parents stole something. The progeny aren’t allowed to benefit. There are only so many college seats out there. There are only so many slots for desirable careers. The families who built this country have a *proprietary* interest in those resources. We walked on the Moon, we don’t need ANY immigrants, particularly from low-IQ countries (hello Latin America).
Jewish social engineering has weaponized the classroom and workplace: These usurpers will receive unmerited preference because of their ethnicity.
It’s all about disenfranchising Whites. Send them back, unless YOU are willing to relinquish YOUR career and YOUR children’s education. My local university was built by my family’s blood sweat & tears. It’s ours.
They all need to go home and Make Latin America Great. If they can. If they can’t, why do we want them here, except as fodder for the White genocide that Jews are perpetrating.
Quite frankly, the Hispanics are the least of my problems. Get back to me after you have some experience with the Somalis and other North Africans. I live in a blue state. Predominantly Hispanic section of town. Some of these people’s grandparents were probably here before my own. If you live outside SW US you really are talking out your sphincter. Lots of Africans in my city last six months. Muslim Africans. Keep your eye on the prize. Jewish and Catholic chitola all around though. Not denigrating your points but these people are your friends. I live a few steps from a major Hispanic-dominated hs. Most of the students don’t speak much Spanish-much to parent’s chagrin, I’m sure. You’ll see. Quit shadow boxing and face the true enemy. That Trump is importing as fast or faster than Obummer did.
So now Shitcago is run by a neo-Confederate f@ggot….how droll
He is definitely a (Jewish) faggot but I guess I don’t know what a neo-Confederate is. Please enlighten moi.
Thinks he can ignore or nullify existing Federal statutes all by his lonesome….thinks Chicago can “secede” from the US….foolish boy
