On an episode of The Big Picture, "If it's Sunday, it's meet the Republicans", Tom Hartman interviews David Laskin, director of communications for the New York Republican party, and points out that President Ronald Reagan became the first of a series of presidents that decided to stop enforcing the immigration laws on the books and stopped sending white business owners to jail for employing illegal immigrants.
He makes his point even more valid by pointing out that before that happened the meat industry and carpenters unions used to pay their employees $30-$50 an hour until the businesses figured out they could hire illegals without consequence.
This is the real topics discussed in secret meetings like "The Caucus Room", the republicans have decided to take down all unions in this country and they know the way to do that is to have John Boehner hold off on passing any immigration bills, as the republicans really want illegals to keep coming in and destroying the democrats last real avenue of funding that does not extend to their party. The unions destruction has been the real effort from the very beginning of Obama's presidency and you have to admit the house republicans may not be getting anything else done, but they are doing a very good job of destroying the unions in this country just the same.
