but when the wages are low shareholders earn more!
The point I’ve made repeatedly is that if you want to stop immigration, it’s much simpler and far cheaper to go after the big companies that hire them. Arrest and throw some American business people in jail and the rest will stop hiring.
For some reason, that doesn’t seem to get a lot of play in GOP circles.
There’s just no way to know! 🤷
And the only thing that stands between the working class and the billionaire class is conservatives. Conservatives are the billionaires’ personal army of mind-washed morons who would rather kill us all than to disappoint their boss.
Loyalists, the irony is something like half almost certainly will scream-tell you how much of a patriot they are.
If those migrants are in your field then I’d say they both probably do. And depending if the worker pays taxes and whatnot… It’s not the same level of harm but it’s not no harm either
Ah, yes, but have you considered that the billionaires are the same colour as me and the immigrants aren’t?
Check mate
Ah, but you peel away the skin and you get two screaming blood monkeys that look basically the same. Mate check
Apes, but yes. If it wasn’t exceedingly clear I was being sarcastic above.
And we don’t want to punish billionaires cuz they just have a great work ethic. Plus I’m totally gonna be a billionaire next week when I hit the Powerballz
Let’s say that it actually was illegal immigrants “stealing your job.” Who is actually hiring them in the first place, hm? Even if it was true, the anger shouldn’t be directed at the immigrants.
I don’t think anger should be directed towards illegal immigrants but probably would make sense to go after both those hiring them and making sure there aren’t as much illegal immigrants. Because with illegal immigrants around to be abused and made to work on pennies, that will cause all kinds of hurt. But obviously they should have a hefty penalty for those hiring them as well.
making sure there aren’t as much illegal immigrants.
We can do that by legalizing them.
There already is a legal process for immigrantion isn’t there
It is inadequate.
But the free market ! If we don’t let them do what they want then it’s just like communism !
…who encourages illegal workers by emphasizing the bean counter bottom line so heavily that hiring cheap migrants is reinforced in order to pad profits. Then, the billionaires with the media empires and outlets stoke prejudice and fears against migrants.
But, what about the Bentleys? They need someone to buy them. Also, what about the private islands? Who is going to price out the indigenous people? Did you think about that? What about the private planes to visit their friend Jeffy? He’ll get lonely.
I will not forget how Elon forced everyone but work visa immigrants (who didn’t have their Green Cards yet) to stay at Twitter. As an immigrant (and now naturalized citizen) to Canada who also grew up in Dubai (where I was not a citizen either, despite being born there) I felt the pain of the precarious situation that they were. This also made me hate Elon far more than I did already.
Reminds me of how the poor white small farmers in the pre civil war south, were being destroyed by slave owners and their mega plantations with unpaid slave labor. And instead of getting pissed off at the plantation owners and aristocracy that was hogging all the wealth, they fought and died for those same slave owners who were destroying them. All because they were told that if blacks were equal, that would somehow make white men lesser.
Fuckingcapitalists
Your comment record is a copy/paste fiesta.

Don’t migrant workers get work visas for picking fruit?
That’s also the key to understanding russian pre-war chauvenism against middle-eastern and asian immigrants. Construction businesses can buy and kill everyone who disagree with them abusing foreign workforce for pennies, and the problem is migrants themselves somehow, them reduced to animals living in stationary train sections and working 12h shifts only to send their income home. That’s to no one’s surprise they aren’t well-integrated into society.
But the billionaires are white, so we can’t get mad at them. /s
