And bush just wrote a book about immigrants. He knew. Corporations know. This economy depends on them. Only when the economy is in the shit do we complain because then low skilled workers hav3 to compete against them.

You do know that GW's sister-in-law is a Mexican immigrant, don't you? That's why he's siding with them and was also weak on our border.
 
Youre reminding me of the Brett Favre scandal in Tennessee. Turns out red states treat federal welfare like a slush fund. So when you say welfare doesn’t work, consider it’s because white republicans control the purse strings and they steal from the poor.

They don't steal shit. Outside of Medicaid, these programs are ran entirely by the federal government--not the state. The state only distributes the money, not take money from these funds. That would be illegal.

I often wonder why are politicians don’t go get money from countries these illegals come from and make them fund thei lives. We didn’t invite them

Not only do we not get care money from these countries, but give them money besides.

Really?

Never-before-seen text messages show former Gov. Phil Bryant tried to shepherd a proposal to use welfare funds on the construction of a new volleyball stadium for retired NFL player Brett Favre – a project prosecutors have called a scheme to defraud the government. Bryant has previously denied any involvement with the project, which has emerged as the centerpiece of a massive criminal scandal in which prominent officials misspent or stole millions in welfare funds intended for the nation’s poorest residents.

Busted! Bret Favre is stupid and text messaged his crimes.
 
You sound like Reagan.
Unlike you, I prefer US citizens have the jobs the non-US citizens are getting.


Thousands of them sit empty​


Back then, the demand for ironworkers was rising – and it still is: the sector is growing 4% annually, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics. Ironworkers earn, on average, $27.48 per hour, or $57,160 per year.

Today, nearly 90% of construction companies nationwide are having trouble finding qualified workers, according to the Associated General Contractors of America; in Washington, the proportion is 88%. Ironworkers remain in particularly short supply, along with drywall installers and sheet metal workers.

Median wages for construction jobs are higher than the median pay for all jobs, the Bureau of Labor Statistics reports.

In all, some 30 million jobs in the United States that pay an average of $55,000 per year don't require bachelor's degrees, according to the Georgetown Center on Education and the Workforce.

It's not that finding a job in the trades, or even manufacturing, means needing no education after high school. Most regulators and employers require certificates, certifications or associate degrees. But those cost less and take less time than earning a bachelor's degree.

No excuses in a good economy like this.

And if this continues, we will have no choice but to start letting more immigrants in. They will gladly take these jobs that right now go unfilled.

Washington is not the only state nudging students into education for the trades. At least 39 states have taken steps to encourage career and technical education, and many have increased funding for it, a 2017 Brookings Institution review found.

At the federal level, legislation introduced in Congress in January would make some short-term workforce programs eligible for federal Pell Grants. "For too long, the college-for-all mentality drove Americans toward expensive and often ineffective education pathways," its sponsors said. "As our country stares down a historic worker shortage, fewer Americans are getting the skills they need to be successful."

Sure we will have a choice. Vote in conservative Republicans that will tighten our social programs so that only those that can't work apply, and those that can work will be cut off forcing Americans back to work.

Good bullshit post...
When Trump was President, US Citizens were doing those jobs and the issue, way prior to COVID, was supply meeting demand.

And the people under him that developed the scheme plead guilty and went to jail. So what's the problem?
