they were saying it was expensive for small business, although if five hundred bucks is going to hurt your business you're probably not doing too well anyway.

Another AZ's mandatory e-verify related analysis: http://thefederalist.com/2013/11/11/economic-costs-e-verify/

"

In states like Arizona, where E-Verify has been mandated for all employers since 2008, economic sectors that weren’t affected by the recession, but employed many unauthorized immigrants, decreased their number of foreign born workers through firing or other means – just as E-Verify’s supporters intended. However, legal workers did not fill in the gaps in the workforce. Once empty, those jobs stayed unfilled.

 

For instance, in the immigrant-heavy farming industry, crop production employment dropped by 15.6 percent in the first four years after E-Verify became mandatory. American workers did not fill the gaps. In neighboring New Mexico and California, crop production employment increased over the same time period. E-Verify explains much of that difference.

More interestingly, large numbers of Arizona employers avoid the problems of E-Verify by simply ignoring it altogether. Since E-Verify was mandated, only about half of all new hires in the state were run through it, even though the law requires 100 percent compliance. Employers adjusted to the E-Verify regulatory burden by simply ignoring it, deepening the black market in Arizona – which is the opposite of the intended result.

Becuse having that base as future voters will jeep the Democratic party from becoming obsolete 

That is the prevalent thought, but one wonders.  Are these folks looking for the handouts the Dems always promise?

Good for them, parental leave is much more valuable than the bonus. I'd be the first one to applaud Trump if he manages to convert the unpaid FMLA to paid leave.

Economy to grow at 5.4% rate in first quarter, Atlanta Fed tracker shows

 

 

The Atlanta Fed updated its rolling look at the U.S. economy, projecting that GDP would grow 5.4 percent in the first quarter.

If the forecast holds, it would be the strongest quarter since the economic recovery began and would more than double the typical annualized growth during the period.

Upon further thought, I'm thinking you don't mean evangelicals here at VJ.
