Don’t you love all this happy horse crap about the wonderful people “who have been living with us”?
First off, they haven’t been living with me, thank God.
Second of all I don’t give a damn where or how they have been “living” I don’t want them I don’t need them for the very simple reason they are not Americans and they did not even “visit” this country legally.
I don’t have to hate them, I don’t have to love them. I just want them to go back to their own country.
When it comes to restaurant hygeine, I’m a canary in a coal mine. Maybe if someone familiar with at least early 20th century practices was employed in the kitchens, I might be able to eat at restaurants more often.
My parents are in the restaurant business in Branson, MO. They were very frustrated that, just as the city began to be busier and wages were starting to go up, the illegals moved in and took most of the restaurant jobs. There are a lot of Americans who were glad to do these jobs, and will be again.

This guy Bourdain has been sniffin’ too many spices in the pantry. Maybe NOT spices.
Oy vey. He’s an idiot.
Promises, promises....
What would happen is that lower skilled Americans would be able to work and be paid a wage that matches their skills. They would probably be paid a wage higher than the restaurants are currently paying because Americans aren’t willing to live thirty to a house.
We would still have plenty of people to fill every job available in this country.
All the groups that used to staff those jobs have been forced out by the illegals willingness to work absurdly long hours for low wages. Practically every blue collar job in America has been affected by these locusts.
Because our vast army of unemployed black and white citizens are too lazy and incompetent to bus tables and wash dishes, right Anthony?
Another shill for Shrillery.

How does it look from the outside?
The cocaine must have fried his brain. He admits to a past addiction.
I’ll gladly pay 30-50% more if the people serving me can actually speak English, have their vaccinations, can take off when they’re sick and pay the same taxes I do.
It’s become a ridiculous cycle. Most restaurants wont even hire you for the kitchen if you can’t speak Spanish!
ENOUGH of this sh**! Let’s take the country back!
As if what an ex - junkie second rate chop house line cook has to say is somehow relevant?
Well if they won't automate mundane work, then they should shut down. Who wants third world diseases from a restaurant because of cheap subsidized labor.
No. Every restaurant in would hire legal residents or citizens and there would be a boom in hiring.Absurd!
This is old hat for Anthony Bourdain. For years he has been claiming Hispanics are the backbones of NYC restaurant kitchens. No way is this true in all of America. Just some urban areas. Las Vegas hums due to Hispanic labor behind the scenes. This is why so many Hispanics live in Las Vegas.....
BUT if deportation of illegal aliens means thousands of restaurants close down then so be it. People will find other ways to eat. Plus restaurants will just have to pay more for legal workers. Meal prices will rise but this will all sort itself out. Americans are not obligated to accept a flood of third world illegal aliens in order to allow restaurant entrepreneurs to make money.
Of course other small businesses will be impacted and might close when their supply of slave labor gets cut off
That’s odd.
I recall lots of restaurants in America prior to 1970, when the Mexican population of the U.S. was < 2 million or so.
Somehow the other 198 million of us back then got along without the citizens of Mexico swarming us.
