Trump’s Hint to Increase Legal Immigration, Automation Dooms American Workers
Breitbart ^ | 2/13/19 | John Binder

Posted on 02/14/2019 5:08:40 AM PST by central_va

President Trump’s hint that he will increase legal immigration levels and a pending automation doomsday that lawmakers have yet to regulate threatens millions of America’s working and middle class workers.

This week, Trump reiterated for the third time in a few weeks that he believes the U.S. should be increasing already historic levels of legal immigration — where more than 1.2 million legal immigrants are admitted every year at the expense of American taxpayers who are forced to subsidize the scheme through depressed wages and fewer job prospects

I, also, find the President's comment to be disturbing. Personally, I believe we are already well above our optimum population, in the short run, until the laws of nature, provide the expected correction.

But I also note that the President has promised to make legal immigration based on merit, among those who "love" us--at least to te extent of accepting our cultural premises--what "naturalization" in the Constitution, was obviously intended to accomplish.

Here is some ammunition for our side:

Totally agree. We are no longer a nation of law and order.

Let the entrepreneurs on main street decide who will help their business most, not anonymous bloggers on internet. In a free market economy some people will go bankrupt, but historically it creates more wealth which benefits all. It is not the job of gov’t to selectively protect any segment of workers. The job of gov’t should be to increase prosperity of the nation overall. That is true MAGA.

When corporations with infrastructure BASED in USA succeed, it helps all Americans, including tax payers & welfare dependents. Because when an American corporation succeeds it pays more tax which takes some burden off individual tax payers. And more American workers get jobs. And because of the more tax revenue coming in, those unfortunate Americans who truly need help can get more help from gov’t.

Don’t worry, the market will adjust your wages. If your skills are in short supply, you could get higher wages. If your skill is in abundant supply, get prepared for lower wages. It is not really complicated.

I am trying to prevent your frustrations. I feel your pain!

Learn skills which are in demand and in short supply, instead of trying to get higher wages for skills which are in huge supply. You can rant and rave until blue in face, but blogging anonymously is not going to help you increase your wages.

Stopping H-1B would be a start. I don't mind competing with real Americans for wages. That's fair.

I don't want immigrants that come from back stabbing crap holes like India. You can take the Indian out of the slum but you can't take the slum out of the Indian.

New Zealand has been after me to immigrate! You won’t believe how many emails their embassy keeps sending me. Most immigrants to New Zealand are merit based, meaning they have skills needed in New Zealand. Or NZ welcomes you if you can bring $1.5 million to invest there. NZ is full of professional college educated immigrants from all over Asia, India being a part of Asia.

Why don’t you start your own company and hire only citizens and pay them much more than those cheap H1-B visa foreign workers in competing outfits and let us know how it goes.

If Trump loses to a Democrat in 2020 (Kamala or Pocahontas or Beto or Booker) I will look at moving to NZ again. So long as PDJT is MAGA, I love it here.

Your post proves my point. End H-1B and all employers will have to hire Americans.
