Immigration and Your Wallet

by David Stone

Overview
IMMIGRATION is the most important topic in America today and has a directly negative impact on your paycheck on Friday afternoon. Why is this so important? Because supporting all of those millions of illegal and uninvited guests has become very expensive. Who do you think pays for all of that cost? That would be you. It does not matter if you consider yourself to be a Republican or if you have voted exclusively Democratic all of your life. If you work and get paid, you'll always get stuck with the bill. And it is getting bigger, not smaller. Do you consider that to be fair? The best solutions are simple solutions. Issues like our border wall with Mexico, and why it is not necessary to forcibly deport people are addressed with low cost and compassionate strategies. The goal is to keep families together. Envision you and author David Stone having a leisurely lunch at your favorite restaurant next Saturday, and the topic was immigration. A casual meeting like that might take two hours from introduction through coffee. If that relevant discussion could be captured, it would be the source for this narrative. Reading this short book takes only about the same amount of time as that lunch might have taken. It is almost like you are reading the conversation in real time. Clever. The PROBLEM - is illegal immigration. The SOLUTION - is just stop giving them money, your money. By this point you are probably asking, "OK, how do I do that?" The answer to that question is really simple. Just download IMMIGRATION and YOUR WALLET and start reading right now.

About the author
David Stone is the grandson of LEGAL IMMIGRANTS who came to America from Europe during the Ellis Island years and landed in Brooklyn. His Grandfather was required to have a sponsor and a promise of employment before he could come to New York. Working as a house painter and raising five children in a basement apartment, his family had no safety net. There were no handouts back then. If they didn’t make it on their own, well, that was just too bad. It was sink or swim. By sheer will and determination they survived just fine. David Stone's parents eventually moved to New Jersey, where David was born as a Baby Boomer. His father worked in a local aerospace factory and earned enough to support his wife and two sons in modest fashion. As an adult, David became a serial entrepreneur, starting and developing several technology businesses. Some became successful and some, not so much. Currently he lives in Massachusetts and owns a local small business. After a messy divorce and selling the big house on a tree lined street, David Stone landed in what can be described as a sketchy neighborhood. Living in an area where most executives never get to see became his inspiration for writing about illegal immigration. What used to be something very good for our country, no longer works as it was originally intended. David Stone explains the relationship between working people and the high cost of illegal immigration. IMMIGRATION and YOUR WALLET connects the dots between what is left of your paycheck on Friday afternoon and why the rest of it has vanished.
