SOTU
President George W. Bush says our economy can’t function without immigrants. The President’s conclusion is that we need more immigration. He also says that America is addicted to oil. His conclusion is that we need less oil.
The President’s guestworker proposal, his way of fixing the economy’s alleged inability to function without immigrants, a plan that has repeatedly been stalled by Congress already, will add another worry to your work life: If your job can’t be offshored, it can surely be guestworkered.
Other than that, not much to say about the speech. Typical Bush stuff, a mixed bag of good, bad and some in between. Bush deserves credit for having cut back a lot on pointing out invited guests in the audience, as Bil Clinton spent seemingly half his speeches doing.
