Suspension of the H1B visa program would be a good start. 200,00 foreign workers are entering the USA per year (with 3 year visas that are easily extended to 6 years) to compete with American job-seekers. American companies are abusing this Department of Labor program due to restrictions relaxed during the Bush administration. Taxation on those companies off-shoring US jobs would also be a big incentive for them to keep these jobs here. It is like the American companies have abandoned the US workers that built these companies in the first place.
I just had a baby 4 months ago and I was told my child would have downs after all my tests. I had actually considered abortion before that, sadly. I was in a state of shock and didn't know what I was going to do. My hormones were a mess and I was miserable. Since I never had the balls to actually do it, I continued with the pregnancy, knowing full well what I could have. I actually ended up with a perfect baby without Downs and even if she had Downs, I would have loved her just the same. When I think of what I almost did, I cringe and hope my child never knows. She is the best thing I have ever experienced. Babies do have rights. My stand on abortion has changed, but it took someone else being more important than myself for that to happen. I hope abortion is abolished. Even the woman ROe v Wade was enacted for wishes she had not done it and the law was repealed. This is a very delicate subject. But babies born at even 5 months have survived.
