...umm, yes. ...English/Irish/Italian, et al. ...and yes, to the people who fled to this continent those countries were "shit holes", otherwise, they would not have left in the first place.
You think Columbians coming here don't have money...whew....and you think poor Europeans don't come here? whew....you think boats of Asian workers don't come here in shipping containers to work in sweatshops...whew....man....get a grip! Gangsters from all over the planet come here because they have money...and Russian gangsters sure have done that for a long time...so have Irish gangsters...bad people who emigrate from the homelands in Europe are hardly poor or interested in going to college....Asian gangsters as well....we're not talking about your biotechnicians or cab drivers...
...slave labor?...if you say so. ...the people we're talking about today don't really have a choice either.
sure it is....my wife is proof of that. proud first generation American....and many agricultural workers get work permits ...when my wife took her citizenship interview in Portland many farmers were there applying for work permits for their crews...current climate has chased those folks home for fear of persecution...not legal status. It's a massive fuckup....and every country I've lived in imports labor forces at a fraction of what it costs the locals to do menial labor jobs they wouldn't let their educated kids do.
I like the migrant worker program. Bus em im, let them work and make money doing the medial tasks, them send them home.
Are you really sure that's the only way? One couldn't possibly draw inferences from who chooses to do that work now? barfo
Nah, only way to find out is to build the wall. Then we have our $20 romaine lettuce and $5 to use a toilet, like in everywhere else around the world with no cheap labor.
yeah because the English are such a vast desperate labor pool who can't wait to work in our labor force.....they are also getting forced out of their homes in Liverpool by gangsters and drug cartels.....hadn't thought about that
When Japanese came over as refugees from a country we BOMBED THE SHIT out of, most didn't have education etc. What should we do with asylum seekers? Your ilk would have them shot at the border.
Well, Brother, there was a lot of that when this continent was was being inhabited by the English, Dutch and somewhat the Spanish. Religious persecution was a big deal. A lot of others came as indentured servants, prisoners and sailors press ganged into service.
