Every Immigrant Without High School Degree Costs US $640,000

Every Immigrant Without High School Degree Costs US $640,000:
"...According to the report, first generation immigrants as a group increase the nation’s fiscal deficit.
In other words, the government benefits they receive exceed the taxes paid.
The National Academies’ report provides 75-year fiscal projections for new immigrants and their descendants.
The fiscal impact varies greatly according to the education level of the immigrant.
Low-skill immigrants are shown to impose substantial fiscal costs that extend far into the future.
The future government benefits they will receive greatly exceed the taxes they will pay.
...However, a rough estimate of the future net outlays to be paid by taxpayers (in constant 2012 dollars) for immigrants without a high school diploma appears to be around $640,000 per immigrant over 75 years. The average fiscal loss is around $7,551 per year (in constant 2012 dollars).
Slightly more than 4 million adult immigrants without a high school diploma have entered the U.S. since 2000 and continue to reside here.
According to the estimates in the National Academies report, the net present value of the future fiscal costs of those immigrants is $920 billion.
This means government would have to immediately raise taxes by $920 billion and put that sum into a bank account earning 3 percent plus inflation per year to cover the future fiscal losses that will be generated by those immigrants..."

Gonorrhea is more dangerous than ever as resistance to antibiotics grows

Gonorrhea is more dangerous than ever as resistance to antibiotics grows - The Washington Post
"U.S. health officials have identified a cluster of gonorrhea infections that show sharply increased resistance to the last effective treatment available for the country's second most commonly reported infectious disease.
...If the bacteria continue to develop resistance, that end-of-the-line therapy ultimately will fail, and an estimated 800,000 Americans a year could face untreatable gonorrhea and the serious health problems it causes, health officials said.
This latest news about antibiotic resistance came as world leaders gathered at an unusual meeting at the United Nations to address the rising threat posed by superbugs, microbes that can’t be stopped with drugs..."

Clinton campaign: Yes, world has 'right' to immigrate to U.S.

Clinton campaign: Yes, world has 'right' to immigrate to U.S. | Washington Examiner
"Do people around the world have a right to move to the United States?
It's a bedrock belief of most conservatives that there is no such right.
The U.S. sets its own immigration policy, admits whom it chooses, and foreign nationals in foreign countries have no right — a claim that could be pursued in court — to enter the United States.
Now, Hillary Clinton says there is such a right, at least if a tweet from her campaign headquarters can be taken for a policy pronouncement.
This is what happened.
In his Monday speech on terrorism and immigration, Donald Trump said, "We want people to come into our country, but they have to come in legally, through a process… No one has a right to immigrate to this country. It is the job of a responsible government to admit only those who expect to succeed and flourish here and really be proud of what they've done and where they came from. They have to love our country."
In that quote was the fundamental principle:
There is no right to immigrate to the United States.
Shortly after Trump's speech, the Clinton campaign in Ohio tweeted out the story of a Libyan who came to the Unites States on a student visa in 1994, was not able to renew it, and simply stayed in the country illegally.
He didn't exactly live in the shadows, settling in Dayton and founding the Islamic Federation of Ohio and the Islamic Center for Peace.
After two decades, he received permanent residency in 2015.
In the story, headlined "Donald Trump would have kicked my family out of the country," the man's son, whose name was given as Mohamed G., wrote, "There was no way that I could let a person that disrespects my father and other immigrants win the White House."
On Monday, the Clinton Ohio campaign tweeted Mohamed G.'s picture with Trump's quote, "No one has the right to immigrate to this country." The campaign added the comment: "We disagree."
The same day, the main Hillary Clinton campaign twitter account, @HillaryClinton, retweeted the "We disagree" tweet..."

Meet Hamdog the burger-hot dog hybrid you've been waiting for

Meet Hamdog the burger-hot dog hybrid you've been waiting for - CNET
"Craving a hamburger or hot dog? 
Why choose one when you can have both? 
An Australian man has put a new twist on those all-American meaty main courses by patenting the Hamdog, which relieves your indecision by cramming both choices into one.

The Hamdog is exactly what you might make if you were a college student who'd had a few too many beers and started rummaging through your dorm fridge at 2 a.m. 
There's a regular hamburger patty, but with the addition of a hot dog neatly splitting it right down the middle. 
The best part? 
A mutant bun that covers the whole thing, and looks kind of like the planet Saturn in profile."

Oh, the humanity!-----Cornell football coach apologizes for rewarding players with sombrero

Cornell football coach apologizes for rewarding players with sombrero - The College Fix:
Mexican student ‘excited that our team incorporates a part of the Mexican heritage’

If #TacoTrucksOnEveryCorner is Twitter’s cheeky response to a Latino Donald Trump supporter warning about the hegemonic tendencies of his culture, the complementary hashtag for non-Latino whites is #SombrerosIntheCloset.

Latino student activists at Cornell University freaked out when football team’s offensive coordinator, Roy Istvan, tweeted photos of two football players wearing a sombrero – and the school’s official Twitter account retweeted it, The Tab reports:

Posting on the MECha [de Cornell] group, Silvia Treviño and Matthew Indimine expressed disgust at the university for not acting on the incident, and called for “cultural sensitivity training” for the staff involved. …

[Treviño said:] “Will you pass a proposition to recommend a faculty/staff diversity and cultural sensitivity training? Or will you just push it under the rug as you did the Cinco de Octubre event? I expect a response to this from the Minority Liaison.”

Ithaca students demand diversity forums, then fail to attend

Ithaca students demand diversity forums, then fail to attend:
"Ithaca College launched a weekly diversity discussion circle in response to last fall’s student demands, but not a single student has attended either of the first two sessions.
Last December, Ithaca students organized a mass walk-out in protest of their president’s involvement with Tompkins Financial Corporation, saying his split leadership roles were compromising his ability to address student concerns.
...One protester at the time even told his school newspaper that “we need the dialogue,” noting that the school is in a situation “where instead of just demanding a person’s resignation, we need to hear both sides and figure out a solution.”
Consequently, the school immediately began organizing a weekly discussion forum called “Diversity and Inclusion Circles” for students to voice their concerns and address last fall’s demands.
Thus far, however, The Ithacan reports that not a single student has attended either of the first two meetings..."

Italy Proposes Law To Make Mocking People Online Illegal

Italy Proposes Law To Make Mocking People Online Illegal | Techdirt:

"...Over in Italy, some officials have proposed what may be one of the dumbest such laws in history, written so broadly that it will outlaw a lot more than the kind of "cyberbullying" it's supposedly intended to combat:

Under the proposed law, the "site manager" of Italian media, including bloggers, newspapers and social networks would be obliged to censor "mockery" based on "the personal and social condition" of the victim -- that is, anything the recipient felt was personally insulting. The penalty for failing to take action is a fine of €100,000. Truthfulness is not a defense in suits under this law -- the standard is personal insult, not falsehood.

Yes, mockery on the internet could get you a €100,000 fine. Mockery. The internet. 
The internet is made for mockery. 
And now is the time that everyone should be mocking this idiotic law -- and the politicians who proposed it without having the slightest idea of how such a thing would be abused all the time. 
As Cory Doctorow at BoingBoing notes:

... what it will do is create a tool for easy censorship without due process or penalty for misuse. The standard proposed in the bill is merely that the person on the receiving end of the argument feel aggrieved..."

The Gun Control Chart Liberals Are Desperately Trying to Hide

The Gun Control Chart Liberals Are Desperately Trying to Hide | The Federalist Papers:
"...It seems that after each national tragedy, the hand-wringers on the left sift through every grain of liberty they can get their hands on, looking for ways to regulate away every natural disaster, bad business decision, and murderous psycho.
Their solution is always more government, more control.
As short-sighted as the call for more gun control is, the call for better background checks and more mental health regulations isn’t much better.
Neither addresses the real problem: freedom.
We can talk about a culture in decline, about the wane of traditional morality, or about the effect of a press that glorifies monsters and ignores heroes, but our political calculus as a society must continue to account for the fact that, as Jeb so neatly summarized it, “stuff happens.”
The reason people ask politicians to respond to tragedies is that they want to know what government should do about them, and conservatives need to stop hiding from the fact that we believe there are problems in this world that government cannot and should not solve.
Acknowledge it. Embrace it. Defend it."

"...Yes, pot is now legal in Colorado.
Even here in Aspen we’re infested with nearly a dozen seedy pot stores.
I’ve wondered, is getting high on pot better than getting high on mountains?
To answer that question, I recently slipped into a Colorado pot shop.
I imagined I was cool.
All hell broke loose.
I thought maybe I’d walked in on a robbery.
But no, it was just reefer madness.
Everyone was shouting.
Toothless customers with long beards and smelly T-shirts scurried about the apocalyptic scene. 
Many wore baseball caps backward in that manner that somehow reduces the wearer’s IQ. 
...In the inner room was more shouting.
Glass display cases were filled with pot candy, pot cookies, pot brownies, pot gummy bears and pot paraphernalia.
On the other side of a glass case was another brown-toothed shouter, also wearing a dirty T-shirt, beard and IQ-reducer.
I realized that this get-up was their uniform of nonconformity.
“What can I get ya?”
“Pot. On which to smoke.”
The mere anticipation had already impaired my synapses, it seemed, or at least my syntax.
“Well, do ya want something to relax ya, so ya just, like, tune out? 
Or do ya want something to give ya a buzz, so ya can, like, work?” 
His hands made air quotes when he shouted “work.”
I’ve always preferred relaxing over working, so I choose the first type. The dealer suggested something he called “Ogre Kush.”
He shouted, “How much ya want?”
I shouted back so that I wouldn’t look like an amateur, “One gram!”
For an instant, the place fell silent as several customers glanced and smirked.
A nanosecond later, the cacophony resumed.
...As expected, pot consumption is up since it was legalized in Colorado, along with pot-related automobile accidents and emergency room treatment for toddlers who’ve ingested pot.
(Toddlers usually won’t drink alcohol because it tastes bad to them, but pot candy, pot cookies and pot brownies taste normal.)
Much of the consumption is by heavy users who get very high several times a week.
One in three pot users gets high daily.
Stoners tend to be uneducated and poor.
Maybe it’s their habit that impoverishes them.
At $32 a gram, the 454 grams in a pound would cost $14,498. 
It’s almost the price of gold.
Pot legalizers have evidently decided to help the poor by taking away what little money they have and then sedating them.
And lobotomizing them. 
A recent study by Northwestern University and Harvard Medical School found that even moderate use of pot is correlated with brain abnormalities..."

Mass immigration costs govt. $296 billion a year: National Academy of Sciences

Mass immigration costs govt. $296 billion a year: National Academy of Sciences - Washington Times:
"Immigration is a massive drain on the government, with immigrants taking as much as $296 billion more in benefits than they pay in taxes, according to a new authoritative study by the National Academies of Science, Engineering and Medicine, which found the record level of newcomers is straining the country.
The report suggests that migrants depress wages for Americans, at least in the beginning, and particularly hit workers who have to compete for jobs.
And the new arrivals aren’t assimilating as well as past waves of immigrants, struggling to learn English and to raise their wages as quickly as previous migrants, the academy said in a final draft of the report, which The Washington Times obtained.
The reasons for the slowdown in assimilation aren’t clear, but one possibility — particularly when it comes to difficulties learning English — is the heavy presence of Mexican immigrants during the previous two decades, the academy said.
The report, due to be released Thursday afternoon, challenges many of the assumptions concerning how well the U.S. can handle the current levels of immigration, which run about 1 million a year, including both legal and illegal arrivals..."

This follows a pattern in which unwitting donors are charged multiple times, but always for a total of less than $100, which is a key trigger point for banks’ internal action systems. Photo: Courtesy Carol Mahre

Hillary Clinton’s campaign is stealing from her poorest supporters by purposefully and repeatedly overcharging them after they make what’s supposed to be a one-time small donation through her official campaign website, multiple sources tell the Observer.

Hoopla of Misinformation

By Tammy Derouin

Life is a continuous learning experience.  Every day there is something new to learn.  The American people have had the best seats in the homeland for a re-education of a lifetime.  Your front row, center section ticket was provided to you by the most corrupt, anti-American administration to have won, not once but twice, the coveted role of leader of the free world.

An education or rather, a re-education, of this magnitude doesn’t just happen.  Years of planning, plotting and scheming have turned so many independent, resilient, free thinking individuals into dependent, weak, manipulated victims. Numerous scholarships have also been made available for the recruitment of blind followers.    

These scholarships or incentive programs have become readily available through entitlement programs and social causes.  Each program  is sure to boost the enrollment of blind followers.  There is something for everyone, whether you’re looking for a free ride or someone to blame for your lot in life.  Unfortunately, the small print is disregarded as fools rush to take part in the hoopla of misinformation.  Participation in such programs will strip individuals of their independence and their future ability to think for themselves.  They are willingly shackling themselves to a new master; the government......
