Yet we need MORE immigrants?
Funny, there’s lots of qualified, credentialed people over 50 who can’t find work.
IOW, at that price
Total BS. How much thicker can CNN lay it on?
For a capitalistic system to survive, the middle class needs to thrive and be able to consume beyond the basic necessities. The age of automation and technology in general has made productivity go up while wages and labor go down. Capital investors and stock holders and CEOs are reaping the benefits of this process that continues to scale.
They also use regulatory capture and monopoly behavior to shut out small businesses and job creators to lock in their profits. At some point, drunk on more and more profits, they will cut their own throats as they destroy the middle class. Of course, greed and stupidity will trump logic and strategic planning leading to a work force collapse before they clue in to the consequences of their behavior. We are in a transition state based on technology that requires different thinking than what worked for the industrial age.
I’m certain that Microsoft will be hiring these illegals. Screw you gates..
So cute off the welfare checks & disability checks for those that don’t qualify for it!
Problem-What happens when each successive wave of immigrants learn that they don’t have to work because the government will pay them not to work?
Solution-MORE IMMIGRANTS.
Why in the world would anyone in the U.S. want to work?
If you don’t, you get free housing, food, utilities, transportation, medical care, food, cash and a whole host of other goodies from the government.
Better yet, if you tally up the value of the bennies you get it will normally equate to about $35,000 yearly if you actually had to work and earn an income.
Now, others from the south want their government bennies too and have found that all you have to do is illegally enter the country and in the near future you can have these wonderful bennies too.
Ain’t life good in a socialist world?
Socialists grow poverty—it is their business and the source of their power. What is infuriating is that the GOPe allows it.
They can’t find enough CHEAP slave labor is more like it.
We have plenty of well educated men and women out of work who are US Citizens. Recent War Veterans should have first dibs.
In a free market, you have to pay the price set by the market. Now, Big Crony Business wants to import millions of illegals, apparently 11 to 40 million aren't enough, so that they can pay lower wages. Wages have not increased in 20 years, so are they really getting killed by high labor costs?
Now, Big Crony Business benefits from lower wages, while the costs of high illegal immigration is paid for by taxpayers in high taxes, in destroyed schools, in overwhelmed healthcare systems, in higher crime, violence and deaths from drunk driving. Not to mention the destruction of American anglo-saxon culture.
Now, Big Crony Business and their ilk at the US Chamber of Commerce and the Wall Street Journal are elitists, who think they're smarter than the rest of us. They're not, they're self-destructive morons. While Big Crony Business is participating in the destruction of the middle class, where do they think political support for the free enterprise (profit system) will come from? The enlarged underclass? The downsized middle class? The newly disabled and retired on social security? Latino culture's going to replace the American Culture as a basis? Really?
They are destroying the base of their own existence. That's what I mean by being morons. A strong, vibrant, broad middle class is the superstructure for the business culture in this country. They are destroying that. And we're all racists, ignorant bigots for opposing this great future.
Do businesses really want gay workers and to support gay partners with insurance policies? I’d say they do not but they are scared to death of not being politically correct. It think that is true with many issues including immigration. We all know how quickly the liberal media can demonize anyone or company who doesn’t play their game.
