Buchanan Book Links Suicide of the West to Immigation Crisis

DRUDGE REPORT FLASH 2006�:
"Buchanan warns: 'The children born in 2006 will witness in their lifetimes the death of the West.'"

French novelist Jean Raspail's In The Camp Of The Saints was a compelling work of fiction. It described the fall of France to a flotilla of third world immigrants coming ashore on the Riviera. Pat Buchanan's new book, State Of Emergency: Third World Invasion And Conquest Of America is, according to the brief review by Matt Drudge, a frightening work of non-fiction.

Here's a couple of nuggets cited by Drudge that I had not seen before:
One out of twelve illegal immigrants already has a criminal record before they get here.
Ten to 20 percent of the combined populations of Mexico, Central America and the Carribean is already here.

In another book I read recently which traces the interaction of immigration and affirmative action - remember that all these immigrants qualify for preferential treatment in hiring and public services - the economic "benefit" of illegals worked out to about one percent of GDP, but the enjoyment of that benefit was highly concentrated among the owners of businesses in a few industries like poultry and meatpacking.

Those who collectively derive several hundred millions of dollars in profiits can easily afford to spend millions to lobby for the status quo or more generous immigration policies, while the vast majority of citizens who are net losers - we who pay the taxes to provide education, healthcare, prisons and other public services for these immigrants - cannot compete in the "rent a Congressman" business.
