re: Trumps DOJ Continues to Screw Young People

Roughly 90% of the job openings since 2020 have gone to foreign people.

That's a lie! Where's your proof?

If you actually read the rest of the thread you would see the BLS and Pew Research post.

It’s a net increase and is not indicative of a replacement.

Roughly 90% of the job openings since 2020 have gone to foreign people.

The begin date is the beginning of the pandemic. So we know a lot of the job losses were temporary. Many were people who learned it’s easier and less stressful to just coast and let the government send them a check (speculation). Many were also foreign workers already. They were easy to dispose of from the payrolls. Once businesses were able to return to full operating status, the “new” hires are also composed of the status quo (they replaced other foreign workers).

The “90%” figure refers to the net increase in employment among foreign born workers since the pandemic era benchmark, not to 90% of job openings or proof that foreign-born workers replaced U.S. born workers. Since February 2020 includes the start of the COVID employment shock, the comparison includes the recovery of temporary pandemic job losses.

Foreign born workers were disproportionately affected early in the pandemic, so some of the later increase likely reflects their return to employment. But BLS data cannot determine whether individual workers were replaced, why someone lost a job, or whether a later hire replaced another foreign-born worker.

So after all of that, what is your actual position? Are you for or against Foreigners replacing Americans in the Tech Sector?

We have conservative influencers on X celebrating this Micron deal for Idaho, but they are the largest H1B employer in the State.

North Texas, where I live, has practically changed demographics in the last 10 years.

Plano? I have found this to be overstated. I have a house in north Dallas. Nothing around me has changed. Certainly not a dramatic shift one way or the other.

Its so overstated that there's essentially a culture war in McKinney with the ex mayor and its constituency online. Frisco has changed demographics from single digits in early 2000's to now almost 33% of its population.



Edit: Also, to the statement that most are against it. I am not quite sure from the responses on this board on this topic.

I have experienced them in corporate America, especially within IT.

which is partly why all the IT departments suck dick, can’t deliver projects that work at all.

I have a home in McKinney. In my experience…what you’re claiming is overstated. The McKinney issue was over the city council allowing a mosque to be built…right? I don’t spend much time out there anymore…but that’s what I heard.

---

Correct. The contention is coming from a petition to remove committee members after going against the will of the people. The ex mayor has threatened to dox/report people to their workplace if they signed it. Its real interesting stuff since you own property, you probably should look deeper into it.

I’ll look into it. However…when I’m in town I go to First McKinney. Have you seen the size of that place. It’s awesome. Not sure why people object to a mosque being built and what their legal basis for doing so is.

I can think of several reasons.

Any of them have legal authority?

No. Unfortunately.

They are a disease. Another virus eating away at the host. Just like dem socialists.

Just like Somalis.

And their calls to prayer can kiss my arse.

I may be the most harsh against their growth out of all of the invaders.
