Investor, CEO, and presidential candidate Mike Bloomberg says he would allow investors and employers to hire the the best workers from around the world instead of Americans.
This country needs more immigrants and we should be out looking for immigrants, Bloomberg told the San Diego Union-Tribune on January 5.:
For those who need an oboe player for a symphony, we want the best one. We need a striker for a soccer team, we want to get the best one. We want a farmworker, we want to get the best one. A computer programmer, we want to get the best one. So we should be out looking for more immigrants.
The reporter did not ask Bloomberg to define best. But for cost-conscious shareholders and executives, best is a synonym for cheaper than Americans.
If business were able to hire without restrictions from anywhere in the world, pretty much every [Americans] occupation would be foreignized, said Mark Krikorian, director of the Center for Immigration Studies. He continued:
Americans would have to accept dramatically lower earnings, whether they object or not. Not just landscapers and tomato pickers, [because] Indians and Chinese by the millions can do nursing and accounting. There would not be any job that would not see its earnings fall to the global average.
Bloomberg who has an estimated wealth of $55 billion is trying to exempt investors and shareholders from the nations immigration rules, said Krikorian. For Bloomberg, immigration laws are not one of those things that should be allowed to interfere in [the growth of] shareholders value, he said.
It is obviously unprecedented but this is not obviously different from [President] George [W.] Bushs ideal immigration plan [and] he is expressing a pretty standard Republican plutocrat approach to immigration, he added.

One word POWER over the masses, really very simple!!!!
Agreed.
Sick and tired of the ads BloomCrook for President on the Seattle stations. OTOH it’s all money the DNC won’t get and maybe some doofus liberals here will flush their money down the toilet with his doomed campaign
Shows that being rich does not mean you have any real intelligence.
Gosh what a stand up american he is /s
That should really endear him to all the AMERICAN voters out there /s
As my mother used to say... "just because someone has a lot of money doesn't mean they know anything."
Oh they are far worse than that
Iinstead, I suggest more adoptions of American babies...
Bloomberg and Judge Judy make up the Grouchy Senile Wing of the Democrat Party though Biden gives them some competition.
Bloomberg - riding the Cheap Labor Express...
Except for business the "best one" is defined as the one who will work for the lowest wages.
Democrats are anti-American and the party of division and hate.
Yet it's Mike Lee and not some Democrat who is pushing for expansions of H-1B and granting of Green Cards.
He should immigrate to somewhere else.
Go to hell, you arrogant bastard!
And they are the party of, by anf for Criminals, Illegal Aliens, and Terrorists that they love, support, and vote for them!!!!!
A few years ago I was working in the Los Angeles area, and I occasionally saw a trainload of shipping containers heading east.
For every one, I mentally remarked “There goes another trainload of American unemployment”.
The Learn to code mantra is really a snarky put down similar to another that goes more like, if you dont like our immigration and trade policies, FO
By the way, most Democrats have no idea what codingactually is
It's all hooked together with voter fraud and totalitarianism. Bloomer is a RAT control-freak. He wants the domestic non-working class, ignorant and unemployed and dependent on the RAT government, so they can buy their votes with your tax dollars.
Meanwhile, we see our millennial-morons stoned, hypnotized by their cell phones, walking into poles, sitting on the curb, leaning against buildings and texting about nothing, as their foreign counterparts get all the jobs...both unskilled labor AND "STEM".
That really makes me angry.
It should.
Hes the plutocrat party candidate. Plutocrats should make all the decisions, import as much cheap labor as possible so as to destroy the bargaining power of Americans in their own country and for good measure, Americans must all be disarmed so they are powerless to resist the dictates of Bloomberg and his buddies.
Good luck selling that mini Mike.
I’ve been writing software since the Nixon administration, and I don’t know what, in the modern context, “coding” is.
Whatever it is, apparently it can be learned by anyone in a few weeks.
Nothing I do can be learned by “anyone” in a few weeks.
ooops, the foreigners already KNOW code...."
Yes they do, and they are already replacing U.S. Citizens jobs in companies that are primarily tech service like DXC Technology, and companies that are not like Disney.
Think about what Biden said the other week. The coal miners will loose their jobs intentionally under his "leadership" but they can then just become programmers (i.e. code).
What a moron that guy is. They loose their coal jobs, have to learn an entirely new job skill that will then promptly be replaced by yet more foreign IT workers.
