McDonald's franchisee fined 1 mln dlrs for hiring illegal immigrants

A company that owns 11 McDonald's restaurants in Nevada was fined one million dollars Wednesday after pleading guilty to employing 58 illegal immigrants.
The company, Mack Associates Inc., knew the employees were illegal immigrants and had offered them names and social security numbers belonging to other people, the US Justice Department said.

The company pleaded guilty in federal court in Las Vegas to conspiracy to encourage and induce an alien's unlawful residence in the United States and aiding and abetting an alien to remain in the country, the department said.

The company's director of operations also pleaded guilty to aiding and abetting an alien to remain in the country.

It should be one million dollars per hire and five years jail time and $250,000 for each of the phony IDs.

Now, they need to look at the McDonald's in Maple Grove, MN and their owners. Se habla Espanol,  but the Maple Grove store is beyond comprehension. (At least it was last summer)

No, my friends, there’s only one really progressive idea. And that is the idea of legally limiting the power of the government. That one genuinely liberal, genuinely progressive idea — the Why in 1776, the How in 1787 — is what needs to be conserved. We need to conserve that fundamentally liberal idea. That is why we are conservatives. --Bill Whittle

Pessi, pessi, pessi, chee-burger, chee-burger, chee-burger..........

Walked into a McD's in south Miami 30 years ago and the only people in there that spoke english was me and the X-wife. NO JOKE! Not to mention the only white faces. That was back when John Bulushi(?) was doing that skit on 'Saturdat Night Live'. Guy in front of us gave his order and all I heard was that exact line from the Sat nite show. The X-wife turned around toward me and was just about to bust out laughing. I told her, "You laugh and I'll slap your teeth out." We got the hell outta there right then with nothing to eat. That was also the night the race riots started ('78, '79. ??) but I didn't know they were going on at the time. We had been on the road all day. I remember riding thru some part of Miami and seeing tires burning and blacks drinking, shouting and dancing in the street. Dumb country bumpkin me told X-wife, "These ******s down here really know how to party, don't they."

Three days later I read about the riots in a newspaper. For the next 20 years, I paid to ride the toll road around Miami...........and still would today if I was headed that way.
