There are. In Asia, an employee is expected to shut up and do what he or she is told. That isn't likely to work with anyone who looks like Obama's Son. :)
It’s because the Asian merchants do business through plexiglas shields to avoid getting robbed and shot. That has a depressing effect on the neighborhood business of armed robbery. It’s not fair, no justice. The young men in the area just can’t get ahead.
“Do you think there might be a small, tiny little chance that he could possibly be a racist?”
I don’t blame him for lashing out at one of the groups white America has brought in to replace the blacks (not that it will do him any good). While white America has paid a price for the influx of imported “replacement Americans” from Asia and Latin America in terms of wage suppression and job security, black America has been made irrelevant and invisible by them.
“Barry is a clown, but Asians generally dont hire outside their own race or culture. There may be perfectly good reasons not to, but I get tired of hearing about the employment that immigrants supposedly bring to America. Its more like a chain migration family affair.”
You’re right about that; Asians were imported to suppress wages in the tech sector specifically, via a fabricated shortage of tech workers. Even storefront tech shops in my area are Asian-owned and solely staffed by Asians; I don’t think they even reach out for American business (their signs are in Asian characters). While many are hardworking people, the benefits of bringing them in do not outweigh the costs to the American tech industry. Many of their businesses are unregistered and untaxed, and they really do just “keep it in the family”; there is no contribution to the larger picture.
Even after watching them end many Americans’ careers in the tech sector, Bill gates had the gall to complain that American kids don’t go into computers any more; he had threatened to move jobs to Asia & Canada if he wasn’t given his indentured servants, and when he was (I’m sure he preferred US law to protect him instead of India’s or Red China’s) he acts as though nobody noticed what happened...
“As for hiring Ward 8 residents to work in their businesses, perhaps it is because few if any residents apply for jobs, and when they do and are hired, do not show up for work regularly.”
We both know these jobs aren’t open to white Americans, either; they get around a lot of labor laws by employing related minors, and a lot of tax laws (income & payroll) by hiring friends & family.
Far be it for me to defend Barry or his EBT constituency (who’s money are they spending?) but I’ve been on the receiving end of Korean “customer service” in some of these stores and eateries and I can see his point. The worst of them are in those DC neighborhoods and should know what they are dealing with. They’d never survive in the ‘burbs with the attitudes I’ve seen. That Seinfeld episode with the Korean salon wasn’t totally off the mark.
My guess is that Asian restaurants don’t have quick service crack shops in the rear.
First the blacks chase the businesses out, then complain that there are no businesses in black neighborhoods.
