I bet there are a lot of bayou people who wouldn't mind some of those jobs right now.
And that's exactly the point. Out of one corner of the White House's mouth we are told that billions need to be spent to rebuild NOLA and provide job training to the residents, supposedly to find jobs.
Out of the other corner of the White House's mouth we are told that ILLEGAL aliens should be given amnesty and guest worker visas to do jobs Americans are unwilling to do (for sub-market wages and no benefits).
Which is it? Billions to rebuild NOLA and train Americans to work? Or rewarding ILLEGAL behaviour by non-Americans that cost the US economy billion$ every year in social/health costs, crime costs, lost jobs, eroded wages, etc.?
