In Oregon several Crew leaders on the fire-fighting squads are being laid off because they do not speak Spanish. State laws require that the Crew Leader be able to communicate with the crew. If one person on the 20 person crew is Spanish-only speaking, the crew leader must be bilingual. Why not layoff the one Spanish only crewman? Insanity.
Borders, Language, Culture. It Matters.

  • 6. Foreigners will not be a burden to the taxpayers. No welfare, no

    food stamps, no health care, or other government assistance programs.

    7. Foreigners can invest in this country, but it must be an amount

    equal to 40,000 times the daily minimum wage.

    8. If foreigners do come and want to buy land that will be okay, BUT

    options will be restricted. You are not allowed waterfront property.

    That is reserved for citizens naturally born into this country.
