Does support for immigration have anything to do with the war?

Question

Albert C. Zapanta serves on the board of directors of Tyson foods. and is President and CEO of the United States-Mexico Chamber of Commerce. He is Chairman of the Reserve Forces Policy Board, an independent policy adviser to the Secretary of Defense.
Tyson Foods policy is not to hire people not authorized to work in then United States. Is Zapanta working with the Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld to encourage illegal immigrants to enlist in military service before they can qualify for a job at Tysons? Also, isn't that the same as outsourcing the jobs our military is supposed to perform.

In a perfect world the board of directors is supposed to watch out for the shareholders. That responsibility seem to have metamorphosed into looking out for the executives pay instead. If they don't vote for what the executives want they can take away their directorships and their perks.
On the war of 1812, are you saying the soldiers were war profiteers? Engaging in war for land?
Thank you for answering my question and thank you for your honesty about immigration. I think you do admit this whole immigration issue is about cheap labor.
But I still don't know why Zapanta is advising DOD about reserve requirements. isn't this just another cheap way to outsource labor?
't

The questions remain.
Is Zapanta working to fill military personnel requirements with immigrants?
Would this drive down pay scales for military personnel?
Is this the same as outsourcing the War?
Do you or would you support this?

Answer 2

I think you're trying to piece together a conspiracy theory here. First of all, as a member of the board of Tyson Foods, Zapanta has no input on the company's day-to-day operation or its hiring policies. Simply put, the board of directors oversee the company's executives and act as caretakers for the stockholders, at least that's the notion. Since the Enron scandel, laws have been enacted to hold the board more accountable in this area.
Secondly, the laws regarding immigrats serving in the armed forces goes way back in our history. As a matter of fact, veterans of war have receive spoils since the dawn of warfare. Veterans of the war of 1812 each received 50 acres of land in Ohio. Today veterans receive money for schooling, loans for housing, and citizenship. Those are great rewards for serving our country.
Immigrations is a seperate issue, one that I whole heartedly support as a business owner. I would welcome an influx of Mexican workers, and here's why.
Forty years ago most of the people in the workforce were first generation Americans, children of immigrats. A college education was a dream at that time, particularly for first generation Americans. Service jobs, much like the jobs provided by my company, were important springboard jobs for them. Today the landscape is totally different. As a society, we've been very successful in providing college educations to our young, for which we can thank the liberal Democrats. Our young, third generation Americans, are entering the workforce with a college degree. This has created a brain-drain on service level jobs. No longer does my business attract smart, ambitious young people. My labor pool has become the dredge of society, and it has become difficult to hire people who are not crack heads, who don't have a prison record, or have a good work ethic.
Service jobs are important. Someone has to perform these tasks. Historicly, immigrats filled these positions, and the U.S. hasn't had an influx of immigrats since the 1950s.
To qualify myself, I've always considered my self a right leaning Democrat. But, I have agreed with the current administrations views on Mexican workers. Everything else is hogwash.
In regard to your last comment. It's an interesting question. The fact is, I wouldn't rule out any underhanded trickery by this administration. Since I don't support the Iraq war in the first place, no I wouldn't support a band of mercenaries.

Answer 3

After a illegal immigrant is hired is military, this is so easy to make him do whetever you want, because, you can blckmail, him by treating to tell immigration, and deport him. Even put him in jail. So he obey, and work harder than any american soldier, without asking question, for less money. Isn't it conveniant ???

They do real good robots. To forge war, you need people you can shut up, by blackmail.

“Naturally the common people don't want war; neither in Russia, nor in England, nor in America, nor in Germany. That is understood. But after all, it is the leaders of the country who determine policy, and it is always a simple matter to drag the people along, whether it is a democracy, or a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship. Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is to tell them they are being attacked, and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. It works the same in any country.”

Answer 4

Zapanta sees the low recruitment rates and hit on a long time policy of instant citizenship for immigrants who serve honorably in the military. He figures by expanding this program he can fill the ranks easier. It will not drive down pay but probably drive down recruitment incentives. This is ok as long as they are well educated and pass a serious back ground check. I would also make it law that such immigrants can not sponsor other immigrants for 5 years.
