I think he means 60 million.
I wonder why these treasonous piggies don’t want to hire Americans. I’m going to learn who these “manufacturers” are and won’t ever buy anything from them again.
Does Donahue really work for the CoC, or SoRos?
I guess it’s cheaper to import foreigners...right up until the demoralized and increasingly desperate populace flips the country socialist and top tax rates go back to 90%, cap gains rates go above 50%, and inheritance taxes go to 100%. Talk about whistling past the graveyard.
What jobs, where are the ads posted that are going unanswered?
These idiots are creating a magnet to invade our nation. Treason.
Wow. Damned if they do, damned if they don't.
What they are describing is a gigantic management failure. Job one of management is assemble a staff. If they can’t do that why are they getting paid all those big bucks?
So they take the easiest route - buy some politicians.
Well isn't that just a slap in the face of everyone that wants to work and can't find a decent full-time job...
Hmmm. How many Americans that CAN but will NOT work are on welfare? What if we reform welfare...as in drug testing, time limitations...and see how many of these jobs can go to our citizens?
Funny what folks will do to put food in their tables.
Timmons and Donohue sound like a couple of big, America-hating libs looking for some cheap slave labor to me. Barry’s boys.
““There are 600,000 jobs in manufacturing that are going unfilled today. This immigration bill can go a long way toward helping us fill those positions,” Timmons said.”
And there are 93 million Americans out of work. Why arent you helping them by giving them those jobs, you bastard.
Don’t think for a second the Unions are’nt in on this action. They would love a new base, only they are playing with fire..
what about all the Americans who do not have employment? Do US companies not care?
Worried about work ethic? Ever think of hiring a vet? How about older adults who were taught by the greatest generation? Lots to pick from Mr. Timmons.
What a crock...
Don't believe a word of that. 600,000 vacancies and no one to fill them? Where are these jobs. What specific firms? Where are they being advertised?
These immigrants, a lot of them illegal, will probably average a 7th grade education. Is that really what U.S. manufacturers want? A workforce made up of functional illiterates?
To speak to Tom Donohue or Jay Timmons, please press 2 for English . . .
PING!
The Chamber of Commerce amnesty agenda is for the shortest of short terms and they or their rank and file members don’t seem to see that ...
HOW LONG DO YOU THINK IMMIGRANT (cough, cough) WORKERS WILL CONTINUE TO WORK CHEAP ONCE THEY GET AMNESTY?
These people are coming to me with DNS questions (that's largely my baliwick at the moment) that are just insanely stupid. Stuff like "I can't ping foosystema, is DNS for this system broken?". Yet the screenshot (it's always an actual image, rather than just a cut/paste of the text - which is another issue), clearly shows the ping command resolves, because it prints the IP that it's attempting to ping. They have no idea about ports, firewalls, or anything, yet I'm sure they are being paid decent money for their alleged 'skills' whatever they are. It's like they are getting dumber and dumber.
This post probably belongs in a tech thread, but it's just been really annoying me the past few weeks.
