“And since when don’t we appreciate LEGAL immigrants?”

I don’t really appreciate 1.2 million LEGAL third worlders a year coming here for the welfare benefits. They don’t share my culture or admire it but I’m supposed to respect theirs.

We should cut immigration down to 250000 a year, you must share our culture, no benefits and no bringing your entire extended family (we don’t need your entire village here because some bleeding heart thinks it’s wonderful or is married to one of your tribe).

Any of President Elect Trump’s choices for cabinet posts are of a much higher caliper people than Obama chose. A Labor Secretary with labor experience. Why does anyone have an issue with that or with what he said about immigrants working. And someone did mention that the Carl’’s Jr. CEO was not talking about ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS.Good point on that. A lot of you guys out there are gonna be wiped out mentally, by the time Trump is inaugurated!

Absolutely! I just heard the 16million carrier CEO Christmas present will include upgrades to automation that will replace some of those created or saved jobs. What a liar or an idiot trump is and I am surprised that pence was working on this taxpayer rip-off.
I swear between his winners and losers deal, stimulus and ivankas for the children, he sounds more like Obama than bush.

It’s a good article but it doesn’t explain at all how the appointment of Puzder is supposed to help solve the problem discussed (EEOC “disparate impact rulings”).

Read the entire Breibart article. This guy is a firm believer in vastly increased legal immigration, complete amnesty for illegals already here, and deportation under almost no circumstances.

Puzder would be a cancer in the Trump cabinet and should be excised right now.

So as Labor Secretary, what can he do about immigration? On the other hand, if he can get the Office of Workman Compensation to work like a Hardies, then that would be a good thing.

“They are not taking jobs from Americans, because there are not sufficient Americans applying for jobs. Maybe they feel they have better options.”

I kind of agree with him at this point, but it was NOT like this in the 70’s when I grew up. We all worked and did whatever jobs we could find, I delivered Newspapers at 10, I did all sorts of menial jobs growing up for spending money. My brother got his PHD in Physics at UCLA while being a cook a Bobs Big Boy. American Kids were not ashamed to work back then, now they are spoiled rotten little snowflakes that think everything should be handed to them.

I tend to agree with Pudzur. Hire the best worker you can.

Obviously not. But that may be to Nifster’s credit. I stopped reading them long ago, because so much of their stuff is “click bait” pure and simple. Too often, the stories fail to deliver what’s promised in the inflammatory headlines.

Uh, I don’t think that’s the party line at Breitbart.

This phrase struck me as a title "Advocates for American wage-earners"
I googled it and found this americanwageearners.org/
Union hit piece IMHO.

I hope he can keep Puzder in line. =================

Trump has the two word solution for problem employees; You're Fired. Besides, when a sack full of illegals removed from this country and welfare is no longer a perk for not working, many of those jobs will be a lot more appealing.

True, but he has a seat at the table and an influential voice.

You didn’t read Sundance’s article because he laid everything out succinctly.
