They bring in foreigners under visas that don't require them to pay FICA. It's why American young people can't get jobs at ski resorts and places like that. This BS needs to end.


Yep, morons like to pretend these people are getting paid "the same as Americans" and we just don't want to compete, while completely ignoring that these people are always cheaper to pay even if they make the same base wage.

Those positions will be quickly filled by Americans who 'won't do it'.

Which political party overwhelmingly resides in the "Hamptons"?

Which political party was defeated in the civil war?

2 completely separate questions with no hint of connection i ask. My friend is curious so I thought I could get some help here. Thx

Shouldn’t need H1B for a fricking cook position.

If you want to hire a French Cordon Bleu chef, pay market rates instead of pulling horseshite with the job posting to qualify for H1B.

Interesting you should post that. A manatee was killed by a boat strike last week and the reaction from the Facebook Karens was very similar to the radio announcer for the Hindenburg, but with a several calls for the boater’s execution thrown in.

Good thing it’s almost fall or else Todd and Mitsy would be seriously inconvenienced.

Or, and hear me out here, stop paying millions of Americans to sit at home.




It's amazing that the country has spent itself into debt.. and the plan is to pay lazy sumbitches to sit at home and watch Judge Fakekort... while bringing in foreigners who aren't paying a lot of taxes.

I hate to bust the "at least they are paying taxes" bunch... but most of those central and South Americans that are working as teams of subcontractors, landscapers, etc are being paid by 1099 and not filing income tax forms. IF the head Central or South American running the thing is even giving them that. Most have zero bookkeeping. So then they are not contributing to social security or the national general fund at all. Oh but then we are giving many of them benefits.

"But but but the IRS will catch them!!" LOL. Uhh maybe a few here and there. But then what are they going to collect?

Meanwhile, we are out having to pay the multitudes of people sitting home with their "bipolar" disorders and their "fibromyalgia" who are out wandering around during the day costing more money.

This seems like a real dilemma for the left. Rich people are being harmed because the illegals employed at their ultra-exclusive yacht club can't prep their meals.


Long Island is pretty split in terms of politics. The western part, which is very working class, votes red. The eastern part, where all of the uber-wealthy Manhattan socialites buy beachfront mansions, votes blue.

Seems like a place like this would be one of the easier spots to hire actual citizens to work there as they are obviously doing very well.

I talk to quite a few of these "migrant" workers from our southern border. They do almost all of the physical labor in the O&G industry. We can wipe our hands of them because we do not employ them, the contract companies do. But every scaffold builder, insulator or painter is, shall we say, undocumented.

These guys all have the same story. They regularly go back and forth. They all have contacts here and across the border. They all send almost every cent back home. They all have really nice McMansions they have built with money made here. They are all counting on retiring early.

My brother employs the same type of worker for roadway construction.

Lake Tahoe is packed with American teens. And while I’m glad those that weren’t on visas correctly were removed the article is written very poorly. 100k initiation isn’t outrageous for a private club. Dozens of country clubs in Dallas alone charge that. The author acts like it’s all billionaires there.

Arrest the business owner for hiring illegal aliens.

But that will never happen to the wealthy.
