“Do not redeem, sar!”
Don’t they have universities in India?
Don’t they have jobs there too?
When I looked into which professions were making how much in 1971, doctors, lawyers and engineers were roughly equivalent. Since then, doctors and lawyers have hugely exceeded engineers. That’s because you can’t import doctors or lawyers before now. That’s starting to change because roughly half the doctors in Tallahassee are obviously foreigners. Don’t get me started on the nursing staff where the fact that only one nurse on my floor could understand English almost got me killed.
Business imports trades to keep down the cost. These people are used to living and therefore working much more cheaply than those of us born here. I gathered the Pilipino nurses on my floor were living in dormitory conditions. With such cheap labor, why is medicine so expensive? Look no farther than the law. I won’t get much treatment in the ER without demonstrating I can pay. But if I were an illegal alien, they can’t even ask my name. (I check the bottom of my shoe because I smell government,)
AHMEDABAD, India — A man gives his passport to a Hindu priest at a temple in this western Indian city. For a fee of about $2, the priest prays to the monkey god Hanuman for the man’s visa application to the United States to be accepted. The prayer quickly ends, and another supplicant hands over his passport.
The Chamatkarik Shree Hanumanji Mandir is one of many “visa temples,” as they’re known across India, that boast of answering the prayers of Indians seeking to migrate abroad.”
Actual heathens praying to a monkey god in order to come here and enrich our culture.
In any hospital ER the law clearly states you can’t be refused treatment because of an inability to pay.
I have noticed though there are virtually no more Hispanic illegals crowding up our waiting area.
A recent Saturday afternoon trip to Home Depot was like a dream. The place was virtually empty and no jabbering mutts speaking Spanish.
So? They can hardly handle not plagiarizing!

“The place was virtually empty and no jabbering mutts speaking Spanish.”
That is a mixed blessing. When those guys weren’t stealing the place blind, they were spending money, which keeps the demand for material up and therefore the supply cheaper. But the other aspect is, and I checked this with the buyers at ACE and Gulfcoast, the amount of building is WAY down. That’s because the Biden administration gave out low interest loans to stimulate the economy, so we are overbuilt, which has caused the supply of homes and apartments to increase and the sales of same to crater. This will depress the economy, and Trump will be blamed.
The prices of those homes will drop, but it will be delayed as when they sell at lower prices the institutions holding the paper then have to report the loss, which will affect top level bonuses. So the delay will be as long as they can make it.
There are thousands of non-performing loans in the NY area some of which haven’t been foreclosed on in years because the one sure way to predict if performing loans will fail is to put existing owner’s upside down by increasing supply.
America first!!!!
I see your point.
In my little subdivision on The Jersey Shore, built sometime in the late 50’s there are all single family homes that were built at a time when land was cheap and material expensive.
My home is barely 1,100 sq. feet but my lot is 80 feet wide and 150 feet deep.
Recently the house across from mine was bought by a realtor, fixed up real nice, total renovation , a Class A job but as yet I haven’t seen anyone looking it over.
“Don’t they have jobs there too?”
Yes. Companies have choices
1) Bring Indians to the US to do IT and similar work
2) Hire Americans and not Indians.
3) Attract immigrants from Canada, Ireland, Britain, Germany
(Many do not realize how many Indians are from Canada)
4) Offshore the IT work to India.
All 4 options are being used. Decrease one to increase a different one.
My last IT programming job in 2002 was outsourced to pakistan. I trained my smelly replacement for 2 weeks, laid off and the company went belly up be ause the replacements couldn’t read COBOL.
COBOL. The curse that keeps on giving.
How about all those American students grappling with their lack of Indian language skills, Indian relatives, etc.
Thanks for posting this very uplifting story! My heart soars that this great injustice may be ending:
Blather’s blather.
It will be number 2. No way this doesn’t end well.
