re: Some facts about refugee location in Louisiana

I just think we have so many here in need before we start taking in any refugees, that’s all.

Your error in thinking here is that refugees are necessarily looking for a hand out. They're not. They're hungry and want to assimilate and work. More so than regular immigrants and more so than native born citizens.

People disagreeing with me without presenting facts doesn't really dissuade me at all.

Melt

The melting by some of these “men” is pathetic and reads like Facebook mom drivel.

Louisiana taking in 200 a year over the last ten years is a very thin dilution. the front line states Texas, New Mexico , Arizona and California have a much bigger problem.

Louisiana did have a large problem in the late 1970's when a massive amount of Vietnamese were relocated following the war. these were people very likely to be murdered because they were on the wrong side. these were people that came with nothing but a work ethic. they impacted the louisana residents in two ways

they became the new impoverished class displacing blacks for government support and attention. friction resulted

they became fisherman that worked many more hours per week than the local fisherman had set their lifestyle around. caught a lot more fish per boat and reinvested in equipment to improve further. friction resulted

some immigration can support good objectives. uncontrolled immigration will cause social conflict. the impact will always be on the blue-collar worker. the eastern elites will never experience the issues

Friction how? The Vietnamese influx has been great for Louisiana.

UTICA, N.Y. — Over the past few decades, as a manufacturing decline left homes vacant and storefronts dark, New York’s upstate cities opened their doors to refugees. The influx, while modest, gave new life to neighborhoods, helped alleviate labor shortages and shored up city budgets.

But that rejuvenating bounce for cities such as Utica, Buffalo and Syracuse ended after the Trump administration drastically cut the number of refugees allowed into the country. New York received 1,281 refugees in the last fiscal year, compared with 5,026 just two years before, according to the State Department. Officials in those cities worried they had lost a small but important bulwark against population decline.

Now, some are testing out a new strategy: luring refugees who have settled in other parts of the United States to move to New York. They are advertising job placement, English language and housing services, hoping to draw enough people to offset the shortfall.

New York is not alone in trying novel ways to reverse its dwindling population. Maine, for example, has offered an outstretched hand to refugees in hope of expanding its work force. Vermont has dangled $10,000 grants to entice people to move to the state and to work from home, in a bid to attract young tech workers. And Wyoming is trying to woo people born there back home by deploying recruiters to help them find jobs.

He was saying blue collar workers feel the impact not northeastern lawyers that run the think tanks and ngos that promote it.
