I agree that this immigration problem needs to fixing. All self proclaimed stateless people need to move to the country where they know they can get a passport. We don't need to accommodate people who come into our country and make babies without being married. The parents need to do the right thing and get their children documented in the country where they are entitled to it.
At least make this apply to all new hires. That way no-one currently employed will be effected. Then we can start negotiating with current workers on how best to make it equitable.
hold on! a 20 year moratorium on new plates! What does that even mean? People who have plates (many of whom are probably well past dead) still have taxi plates in their name? It sounds like once you have a taxi plate you have it for life - and beyond. This has got to be yet another PLP scam! Every story seems to lead back to slimy politicians.
True. If Munroe wins then we all lose. Borrowing is tough now - it'll be MUCH tougher (actually impossible) if lenders aren't allowed to evict and repossess.
Everywhere we look we see years and years and years of government waste, incompetence and graft. If we look too hard we may realize that we are simply land pirates (pirates without a boat).
I'm a self declared fairly educated guy and I cannot see how joining the WTO will benefit us. And... none of my friends and associates can either. Can someone PLEASE give me some clear/no-brainer examples?
