Lots of people on welfare disability are actually able bodied.

Judge Judy: 'Why don't you work?'
Plaintiff: 'I'm on disability. My back hurts.'
Judy: 'Then why were you water skiing when the defendant grounded your boat?'
Plaintiff: 'Uh, uhmmm... I dunno.'

My point is these powerful corporations that conservatives have sucked off for decades support the open border policies


The more left corporate America gets, the less conservatives support them. How can you try and turn that into an indictment of conservativism?

There shouldn’t be a single job open to illegal aliens in this country. Companies that hire them should lose business…

That's only a portion of the story (we'll assume it's right for a moment)

I’ve begun to wonder if much of the illegal Act Blue donations are kick backs from the cartels. Biden has been their best salesman and deserving of a commission. Wouldn’t be the craziest conspiracy theory to come true.


Much of the network that's being used by the illegitimate regime to transport illegals from Central and South America and from other parts of the world are NGOs who are getting a shite ton of US taxpayer money to facilitate the illegal immigrant invasion of the US.

We must have close to 70-80 million illegals running around the U.S. by now.

Why hire an American when I can pay someone else less money.

This. This is the real problem- greed/selfishness. The only way to stop the supply, is to stop the demand. Which, similarly to the “war on drugs”, will not happen. If only there was some standard of goodness by which to live our lives, some… objective moral code- that when strictly and completely adhered to, would prevent these problems from occurring. Man, that would be awesome.

Support of open border policies by big corporations isn't something new like all the woke stuff

BS….they used legal green card holders they could rely on being there as migratory farm workers.

Now that system is being crushed.

Black and white skilled home builders gone.

An entire industry left US Shores with the Clinton Luxury Tax scheme. I lost ten good customers in the Yatch industry. Plus free rides when completed yatchs were tested. All moved off shore.

Most of the huge farms and ranches are either corporations themselves or contracted to corporations and it appears over the past 30 years a majority of corporations have become more politically progressive than conservative....

I just read where the Fed declined to increase rates and cited a cooling job market as part of the reason.


The Fed is going to try to fabricate an excuse to drop the Feds fund rate 2-3 points before the end of 2024. The Fed understands the debt service on $34 trillion at 5-6% is not sustainable and they will try everything they can to keep the current MMT scam intact.....deficits don't matter.

LOL, I'll ask our trainer how many illiterate illegals from North Africa he wants to train to run these lines.
I like watching his eyes bug out when he gets pissed.

We could also stop sucking off corporations that pay their employees so little that their full time employees are on food stamps. Corporate America is as guilty as anyone with regards to the immigrant crisis.


Every business is going to hire the cheapest staff/labor they can, when tens of millions of illegals are available for exploitation it means corporations don't have to increase wages.

This issue is on the hands of the US government and particularly the current illegitimate regime for not only allowing mass illegal immigration to occur, they're facilitating the invasion.

You are so fricking dumb.

If you pay them more, the cost of goods sold goes up. So the price of the item must go up.

Since you voted for Biden, the $ has diminished.


Plus why the frick would they hire some teen that cant work when they can hire an illegal that can work whatever hours they need?

All you have done powerman is make young low skilled americans worthless and jobless. And it hurts the young black kids the most.

Piece of shite.

Don’t think it’s jobs, it’s spending. Us prosperity was from 200 years of population boom and the resulting spending. Taxes front run federal spending, and infrastructure. Hard to do with a birth rate R0<1. I think both sides know this but can’t say it out loud. I’ve been thinking this for a while, and haven’t heard any economist say it. It just seems if it was really detrimental it would be stopped.

Many countries require companies to prove they can't staff positions before importing labor, too bad the USA doesn't give a shite.

H1-B is worse for most of us than Pedro, sadly. Importing cheap WHITE COLLAR labor, displacing your COLLEGE GRADUATES... that is worse to me than someone taking a job vacuuming cars at a car wash.

The whole system needs a reboot. All these people, whether legal or not, simply form enclaves where they establish their 3rd world shitholes here, but we get the added benefit of them also ruining schools by overwhelming them with non-English speakers.

You've had some shitty takes today, seems like the Democrats ore out in full force finding out rich people are involved in a sex trafficking ring. Did it crumble your pathetic little world?
