Michael Bloomberg:.... Government Should Import ‘an Awful Lot More’ Immigrants
breitbart ^ | 11/26/2019 | NEIL MUNRO

Posted on 11/27/2019 8:00:08 AM PST by caww

Democratic 2020 candidate Michael Bloomberg says he will recruit “an awful lot more” immigrants “to take all the different kinds of jobs” in the U.S. economy.

The immigrants can “improve our culture, our cuisine, our religion, our dialogue, and certainly improve our economy,” Bloomberg told reporters without naming the American cultures, cuisines, religions, and dialogues that would be improved.

Bloomberg’s comments reflect the views of wealthy investors who gain stock market wealth when the government imports more workers, welfare-aided consumers, and extra renters into communities created by Americans and their children.

Bloomberg’s group is also pushing for legislation that would provide an endless supply of H-2A visa workers to investors in the agriculture sector. The wage-capped workers would likely displace Americans, reduce pressure on investors to buy high-tech farm machinery, and convert many agriculture towns into “company towns” dominated by a single employer.

He’s right in line with many Bush League Republican Senators like Flimsey Grahamnesty and Micro Rubio.

Let start expelling Bloomberg instead.

Why doesn't he demand mass importation of (say) radical Muslims into (say) Israel, for some reason?

Boomberg is obviously a xenophobe bent on destroying the economies of other countries by luring their "best" away to America.

“Government Should Import ‘an Awful Lot More’ Immigrants”

“Awful” being the key word here.

He just ended his campaign with that statement.

Most voters don’t agree. Heck, a helluva lot of Democrats secretly don’t agree.

Because pantheism has done wonders for every single culture throughout history, right?

What an absurd statement demonstrating Blommie is a completely out-of-touch New York liberal.

Bloomberg should take a plastic straw poll of voters.

The wage-capped [ag] workers would likely displace Americans [ag workers]...

Are there actually any American workers doing the tough, low-pay jobs on U.S. farms, ranches, and orchards? I would guess not many based on what I see.

More from the article:

Bloomberg, who owns roughly $55 billion in assets, has long supported mass migration. In 2013, he joined with the owner of Fox News, Rupert Murdoch, to create the Project for a New American Economy. The group of investors and politicians pushed for passage of the Gang of Eight amnesty in 2013.

In 2019, the group is pushing for the S.386 law that would help investors by encouraging many more Indian graduates to take white-collar jobs from American graduates. [...]

In 2013, the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) predicted the planned “Gang of Eight” amnesty would shift more of the nation’s new wealth from workers to investors.

The flood of roughly 30 million immigrants in ten years would cause Americans wages to shrink, the report said. “Because the bill would increase the rate of growth of the labor force, average wages would be held down in the first decade after enactment,” the CBO report said.

But all that cheap labor would boost the profits and the stock market, the report said. “The rate of return on capital would be higher [than on labor] under the legislation than under current law throughout the next two decades,” says the report, titled “The Economic Impact of S. 744.”

In contrast, Trump’s opposition to Central American migrants and to amnesty bills sought by the establishment has helped to nudge up wages for blue-collar Americans, especially in the midwest battleground states, according to a November 26 report posted by Bloomberg’s news service

"Low-pay" is not carved in stone; importing Third World serfs to suppress American wages is not a pro-America policy.

We wouldn’t need them if the democrats would stop murdering American babies with their abortions. It sounds to me like Mikey wants to populate America with obedient, non-English speaking foreign freeloaders than with freedom-loving Americans who tend to tell politicians like him to go take a flying leap at a rolling donut.

Improve dialogues?

What does that mean?
