This administration realizes there is a labor "shortage" and is doing something about it.

Unlike the other candidate, who wants to coddle citizens with Constitutional protection, Biden is doing some real stuff here. Do the math yourself, $12 hour wages plus $16 hour for "expenses to the company to the labor pimps, = $28/hour and they still can make a profit. Where do you think we're headed if this continues?

Anything in order to avoid just pay the actual American workers decent money, even if they have to pay more; cost in no object. Stupid ideological class warfare. I hope the Haitians rob them blind then take machetes to the vermin when they get bored and leave.

FYI
$16 is what the client paid per hour per worker to the agency....that's it. The agency collects the $16 per hour from the client, and the agency pays the temporary worker $12 an hour for his time worked at the client's factory, and the agency keeps the $4 per hour left after paying the worker as his gross profit.

The worker doesn't cost a total of $28 per hour....just the $16 per hour.

That may be true but doesn't change the fact that the immigration failure is being used with the co Operation of the DHS to drive wages down here for citizens and subsidize their flood of illegals. I say illegals because just giving them a pseudo work paper doesn't change that fact. Adding to the profit factor, there's the money being paid to citizens who can't survive on these slave wages to avoid riots, health care for these illegals, schools for them, more police and legal infrastructure, and state and federal subsidies for them because they couldn't possibly remain here on those wages. Lowering the quality of life here seems to be the goal, I don't see how you can view it any other way. This is not incompetence, it is a planned demolition of the way of life here.

That math ain't mathing.
Usually there's about $6-8/hr of Social security match, insurance, Medicare, and taxes you have to pay.
So the temp agency wasn't getting $4/hr.....more like $1-0.50/hr per employee. There were certain programs for hiring certain individuals with some Government matching funds. But I think those programs have evaporated.
That's how most temp agencies operate.
You need 20-30 employees out there to begin to make a living.

$4/employee? That's fat money there.

I don't think that is all the funding the company receives if it is being used as a vehicle to support the assimilation of these so called refugees. There are other driving forces.

Beautifully worded post title with hidden sledge hammer in the post ...lol

Nicely done.

Sure....the open communist style capitalism taking place right in front of our eyes is definitely something to watch.
Lefty says the GOP is the party of big business?

How can any of the labor unions look at themselves in the mirror for supporting the destruction of the wage structure like that?

This is just my opinion, but slave labor isn't going to make this country great again. We need a reset where no foreigner gets a job here before all Americans are employed. There needs to be competition for the good jobs where our least qualified people get stuck doing those jobs the Haitians-foreigners are now taking. We have to stop giving our own physically able people a free ride. And as far as our immigration system is concerned, we should only be letting people with needed skills come here. We don't need any specific quota of construction workers, fruit pickers or nannies etc. We have plenty of lazy kids graduating every year who need to do these jobs to learn how to work. No work = no food, no apartment, no car. We need to get back to competing in the US.

So our government has decided to control the market

Methinks there are terms that apply, but regulated capitalism just doesn't seem to fit.....

When you hear about price control, wage control, rent control, information control (fact checking), or population control what comes to mind?

Back in the Ellis island days immigrants were vetted

Now they are not, because they've skipped what was the process for the sake of sanctuary

Now we get dependents who are a liability

If the state can pass a minimum wage law, what prevents it from also passing a maximum wage law? Or effectively implementing one.

Yep, that's why I said GROSS profit....after the agency pays all bills, NET profit.

Actually, they are vetted at the border, after capture or turning themselves in, they are put in detention, until the border patrol agent conducts his interview with them one on one...that crossing is called an ENCOUNTER......

The border agent vetter, determines if they meet the criteria for an asylum seeker and are legally allowed in as an asylum seeker, until their court date and a judge makes the final decision. If the judge says no, then the seeker gets deported immediately.

AFTER VETTING INTERVIEW, those determined not to meet the asylum seeker criteria, border patrol DOES NOT LET those encounters in to our country, and takes them from detention and deports back to their own country when the USA has a program with them, or turns them back loose in to Mexico, where they came from....

ONLY THOSE VETTED by border patrol that meets their asylum seeker criteria, are let in to our country to await their immigration determination court date.

MORE than half those people (those encounters) attempting to get in, are DENIED ENTRY and returned to Mexico or their homeland IMMEDIATELY following their vetting interview.

Only the asylum seekers after vetting, are let in, with few exceptions....for example minors crossing the border without any adult, are let in as well....and we take custody.

Employers get tax breaks for hiring some demographics, so don't leave those out of the calculations. Then there are the food stamps, free housing, schooling, etc. that Americans don't get.

Add all that crap in it's cheaper to make the assholes hire Americans and pay them., but no, it's far more important to shit on American proles, just because.
