"More than a million foreign-born workers have exited the workforce since March." And...wait for it...thru April (latest available data), US real wage

[excalibur]

Yep, Jobs for Americans are returning.

Wages slowly not being depressed by a never-ending flow of foreigners.

The WaPo notes that as of yesterday's US jobs report, "More than a million foreign-born workers have exited the workforce since March." And...wait for it...thru April (latest available data), US real weekly wages rose 0.92%. Thru first 4 months of last year, they fell 0.22%.​

This is precisely what one would expect. Bring jobs back to Americans. They will then have disposable income to spend and companies will have a higher volume in sales as the consumption economy reignites.

Imagine the success over three years?

We will see if Trump will be able to revamp your election system to prevent any potential cheating.

You mean those immigrant workers don't spend money?

 

[Oddball]

I have half a mind to start going to construction sites with a bullhorn and shout "iLA MIGRA EST A!" through it.

 

[shockedcanadian]

Sure, they also sent billions back to Mexico and undercut the rights that American workers fought for over decades.

Hire American citizens and stop undermining workers rights and the dignity that Judeo-Christian society demands. The dignity that G-d demands.

Anyone that believes the flight of these foreign workers is going to be some kind of boom for the US economy has no understanding of fundamental economics.

I thought the first place we would see this effect would be in farm workers. But after returning to work this week after a six week medical leave of absence I quickly saw where the first effect was. Poultry. I know, we are just beginning to recover from the Avian flue epidemic, but processed chicken, OMG.

I spot check deliveries. What a bunch of shit. I mean terrible, and I flip shit. What a bunch of shit. I want to refuse delivery, no way I want that shit on the shelf. Just damn nasty looking. But the higher ups tell me I can't, it is all they can get. Which is not really true, it is the price point that makes all the difference. We can sell boneless chicken breast at $2.49 a pound a make a profit. But if we went with suppliers that depend on American labor, no immigrants, it comes to $9.99 a pound.

When I go down to the store level, the guys are telling me that it has been a struggle the entire time I have been gone. Major suppliers have been replaced, only to be replaced again. Just be prepared, the days of $1.99 boneless chicken breasts are about to be a memory. MIght as well accept $6.99 a pound the norm. I can see the supply chain falling apart. And that is just the cannery in the coal mine.

Sure, they also sent billions back to Mexico and undercut the rights that American workers fought for over decades.

Hire American citizens and stop undermining workers rights and the dignity that Judeo-Christian society demands. The dignity that G-d demands.

Right, they send billions of dollars back to Mexico, or wherever. Let me ask you a question, what effect does that have on inflation? Do you even know? Have you ever thought about it? You can tap out if you don't understand.

The classic example, the one used by most economists. You got a bricklayer. He hires an immigrant as assistant. The immigrant delivers the bricks, mixes the mortar, something that bricklayer used to have to do. Now, that bricklayer spends more time laying bricks. His productivity increases, significantly. He makes more money, and maybe the biggest thing, YOU PAY LESS.

Are you proposing America bring back slavery so you MIGHT get stuff cheaper (Apple proved that cheap labour doesnt lead to cheaper products, ditto for car manufacturers)?

He's only in it for the profit margin.

 

[shockedcanadian]

It's like the filthy animals in Canada who enforce a caste and defend diddlers and groomers as long as they are "one of us" (them).

Creepy weirdos are now facing tariffs while at the same time they've been siding with Americas enemies for decades.

The greed and cowardice of men will ensure our failures.

There are people with degrees even who believe we are living above our means. 37 trillion dollars total deficit and around 2 trillion dollars in 2024. We see the Progressive fighting tooth and nail any lowering of the deficit as to them it is the rich that will pay the two trillion dollars.

There are legal ways for them to work here. Its way past time to stop the new slave labor workers. Perhaps not im construction but on farms absolutely.

Welcome to my world. Think we give a shit about immigrants? My people have been living in this area since before America was even a damn glean in some yahoo's eye. We made this nation, we died for this nation. King's Mountain, we took it to the British. Biggerstaff field, you have no damn idea.

And that is just it. It anyone has to right to be against immigrants, it is US. This is our home, this is our place, and I have said it before, this nation exists because you yahoos have the sense to leave us the **** alone. Screw that up, we take it back. But we understand, those immigrants, they make us stronger, they make us better. Sure, they are some of them that are criminals, but did we not establish a system to thin them out?

I am going to make this simple. Alexander Hamilton was Washington's aid de camp. Washington tasked him with coming to North Carolina, to ascertain how many volunteers he could depend on to join the Continental army. Hamilton came back, his response was simple, NONE. But then the butcher Tarleton showed up. Hell hath no fury. These simple redneck people responded with vengeance. King's Mountain, their Cherokee wife's with their children in slings, reloading the muskets, they destroyed the loyalist. Make no mistake about it, at King's Mountain, there was one British soldier, Fergunson, the rest were loyalist. These home boys wiped them out, shot Fergunson off his horse, and it was my ancestors that delivered the fatal shot, the rifle, it is in local museum. Then they pissed on his body, ransacked everything he had, and fat ass Round Top, Cleveland took his horse.

You can push, and you can push some more. We are pretty resilient. And I hear a lot of talk about revolution, Civil War, race riots. But when we get pushed to the end, well it will be the end. One thing has not changed, they have a nickname for this area, the Hornet's nest. When we come, we finish it.

You did all that yourself?

They can self-deport, then apply for a H2B work visa....You know, like they are supposed to.

There are no shortage of businesses that will sponsor them.

I think the Over mountain men are overlooked. Probably a Yankee thing. Ever hear of the Mecklenburg compact, the Regular movement. Nope, probably not. I can understand history wanting to throw that shit under the rug. But a generation before the American Revolution the provincial governor of North Carolina threw the border open. Anyone, and everyone, was welcome to come here and make a new start. Blackbeard was the most famous example. He was granted amnesty, and he tried, but he just couldn't do it. But thousands of other people did. They moved here, they took advantage of a fresh start. And to this day, that hasn't changed among the long term residents.

I mean in Colonial times, North Carolina was rough. Rivers, swamps, they insulated people from working together. They forced people to work with their own resources. I mean sorry, but not going to have a lot of respect for Canadian pussies that bowed to the crown. Hell, you still do. In western North Carolina, we pretty much take care of ourselves, we ain't asking for much, and we ain't got much, Helene kind of a case in point. But when you piss us off, well the hornet's nest reacts, and we are getting close to the point that we come back with a vengeance.

So, your people never bothered making this nation until after white people showed up……?

 

[longly]

You mean those immigrant workers don't spend money?

They do spend money in this country, but only as much as necessary. A considerable portion of their income goes back to their home countries to support people there—I don't blame them; I would do the same. However, that money leaving the U.S. does not benefit our economy. Instead, it indirectly supports China and other countries that produce cheaper goods than we do. This is a significant amount of money exiting our economy. There's a saying: 'A fool and his money will soon be parted.' In some ways, we're the world's fool—we're not watching our nickels and dimes, which can add up to millions, even billions, of dollars.

There's another old political saying: 'A billion here, a billion there, and pretty soon you're talking about real money.

Bullshit. You think we got our strength because we were white? The ignorance here is astounding. Did you miss that about King's Mountain? Funny, the strength here derives from diversification. Cherokee, Catawba, it is an awesome mix, and no one, absolutely no one, that has been here since before the Revolution has not mixed with both of those tribes. And it comes with advantages. First, the Cherokee, closer to one of David's tribes than anyone that claims to be Jewish. Highest average IQ in the US, Cherokee descendants, despite what everyone else says. And the Catawba, the most furious warriors this nation has ever seen.

It never was about being white. It has always been about being a people, survival. You do your thing. We don't care. But when it starts affecting us, then you best find a rock to hide under.
