Now would be a good time for ICE to show up and deport the illegal aliens that were working at the plant.

This is a recap of a report of a study done by CIS (the Center for Immigration Studies). It reports on what has happened at Swift meat-packing plants since the "raids". If you want to read the full report you can find it at:

http://www.cis.org/articles/2009/back309.pdf



And the news is generally good. Wages are up some and working conditions are somewhat improved. It also reports that, if wages at the plants went up by a third, it would only cause a 3% increase in the price of the meat produced.

This report should be used to counter some of the wild claims by "Pelosi et al".

Daily Horoscope for December 24

Gemini

It's a busy day and you've got quite enough to do without having to cope with people clamoring for your attention and likely to go into a huff if they don't get it. Is this person feeling neglected because you're busily occupied elsewhere or are there other reasons for their demanding mood? Simply giving them a big hug could make all the difference to their behavior.
