Oh, no, companies might have to pay market wages now that they have the ability to break to law to pay cheaper wages taken away. Lower profits and higher prices will result, but without illegals there will be fewer of the niños to teach at over $10k per year and fewer free patients at hospitals so taxes and paid hospital bills should drop.
It is impossible to know how this will turn out. It is certainly daring.
ABOLISH welfare and watch what happens with these jobs
My buddy’s son got to his construction job in Tallahassee the day DeSantis’ job protection bill took effect. The site was eerily quiet. Of the 60 framers three where there. A week later, a full team of English speakers was completing the job. So, apparently, there were enough “natives” to do the job. And, they wanted the jobs.
I have a friend who is now a citizen. He’s from Nicaragua. He hates illegals. He had to pretend to be illegal to get a job. They wouldn’t hire him if he was legal. He had a green card at the time. The reason is, they don’t pay illegals overtime, time and a half, or the required benefits.
Short-term worker visas with very strict enforcement works quite well in many countries to provide needed lower paying job workers…. Hong Kong has such a program and there are over half a million workers there on contracts lasting up to two years. But if the job or the contract ends, they must be out of the country in 14 days or risk imprisonment.
Democrats are hustling the electoral system by sending all the
illegals to red states and swing states if the Bolsheviks lose this election the party is dead.
So, we should reward unvetted illegals for their illegal entry with a job to incentivize more to come. If there is a shortage, why don’t we expedite legal applicants on the waiting list who agree to take the jobs?
Wouldn’t want to train or hire poor Americans. Let’s keep our citizens F’d up because obviously they are beyond help?
That said, I'm sure we here in Florida will manage to survive without the migrant hordes that are now spread across America. We have plenty here already. The new arrivals can go to Martha's Vineyard or California.
The Wall Street Journal has always been a unrelenting advocate for mass migration. A leader of the Cheap Labor Express.
jorge busho's "cheap labor express." Creep.
Either I-9 & E-Verify are the law-——or they are not.
As a Payroll Supervisor, I handled plenty of I-9’s.
Couldn’t have hired my brother without such a document and correct supporting papers.
Dems planned the socialist normalization by getting people used to welfare without work requirements (Obama’s jobs guy remembered saying he will get to work on matching recipients to job offer categories and Obama’s assistant told him “No, not any more. The President does not want any work requirements. Just get the funds linked to them and send them.”
Then Covid meant extensions of unemployment and welfare.
Socialism.
So long as WE work hard and pay taxes....
Now, sitting at home smoking dope and watch TV or playing video games is much better than working for a living.
Yeah. I wouldn’t do this if I’m DeSantis.
SCREW YOU, WSJ
Illegals can do your editorials too.
ILLEGALS have no right to be here,,,have not gone through the legal channels, yet still expect and have a sizeable contingent of folk support their existence as lawbreakers and their right to have work.
Pay people to do your jobs, employers. Quit breaking the law.
Absolutely true. The American economy would completely collapse if illegals were all rounded up and deported. It has become the Left’s modern day slave trade.
No, the WSJ needs illegal aliens for sex trafficking purposes.
So slavery is back in vogue? And the WSJ is Ok with that?
That’s what I’m seeing.
The Communist used to chant, "The farmers need more pickers" "They work the fields, putting food on your table", and on and on. After a few decades of lawless open borders, millions poured into the LA area and there was not a vegetable field in sight...All lies.
Now it's changed to, "We needs illegal aliens to fill low-wage jobs". Total bull s**t.
This keeps up, this will be the end of America.
