The Frankish Reich Posted June 16 Posted June 16 13 minutes ago, Big Blitz said: Absolutely not. So Americans "just won't do" those hotel/restaurant/agricultural jobs? Or those types of jobs shouldn't pay the minimum wage? What is it that made Trump back off on enforcement actions at those worksites?
daz28 Posted July 7 Posted July 7 Just now, B-Man said: Who'd have thought that a search for a better life would end you up at an El Salvadoran gulag or Alligator Alcatraz, while numerous trips to Epstein Island got you a huge tax cut. It's about time the people, that have been screaming "wake up", actually wake up themselves.
B-Man Posted July 8 Posted July 8 WHEN THE LEDE DOESN’T MATCH THE HEADLINE: “Hondurans, Nicaraguans in Nevada to lose temporary protective status,” screams the Las Vegas Review-Journal headline, only for the reader to be told: Hundreds of Nevada residents from Honduras and Nicaragua who have been shielded from deportation for a quarter-century are set to lose their temporary protection after the Trump administration announced Monday that it was revoking their legal status. President Reagan famously said that “a government bureau is the nearest thing to eternal life we’ll ever see on this earth.” Similarly, only in lefty-speak is “temporary protection” meant to last a quarter of a century. https://www.reviewjournal.com/news/politics-and-government/nevada/hondurans-nicaraguans-in-nevada-to-lose-temporary-protective-status-3393728/ https://instapundit.com/730794/
B-Man Posted July 14 Posted July 14 According to data from the Center for Immigration Studies (pro-immigrant), many immigrants work for extremely low wages, which are then subsidized by taxpayers through public assistance. The argument that “someone has to pick your lettuce” is dead; there is no “cheap labor” only corporate subsidies at our taxpayer expense. It might even end up being cheaper for businesses holistically when they are forced to pay actual market wages rather than depending on roundabout benefits. 🔸 54% of immigrant-headed households use at least one major welfare program, compared to 39% of U.S.-born households. 🔸 Non-citizen households (e.g., green card holders and illegal immigrants) show the highest usage at 59%. 🔸 Compared to U.S.-born households, immigrant households show elevated usage in: – Food assistance programs: 36% vs. 25% – Medicaid: 37% vs. 25% – Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC): 16% vs. 12% 🔸 Illegal immigrants can receive benefits on behalf of their U.S.-born children, while children who are illegal immigrants themselves are eligible for school meals and WIC. 🔸 Several states provide Medicaid or SNAP to some illegal immigrants, and millions of undocumented immigrants with work permits (DACA, TPS, asylum applicants) qualify for EITC. 🔸 Removing low-cost programs like school meals and WIC from the analysis still shows 46% of immigrant households vs. 33% of U.S.-born households use at least one remaining major program. 🔸 Workforce participation is high: 83% of immigrant households and 94% of illegal immigrant households have at least one worker. https://x.com/DataRepublican/status/1944504736201244961 Workforce participation would be higher among citizens if citizens didn’t have to compete with taxpayer-subsidized, below-market labor. . 1
