Fine. I have no need to go into big cities any more these days, and the cities are filled mostly with liberals who asked for all this stuff. Let them wallow in their own sewage.
2 points:
A. America doesn’t have a shortage of workers......
B. America has a shortage of jobs......
A-—There is a vast difference between WORKERS & BODIES. A WORKER HAS to have some skills. They have to speak, write & understand ENGLISH language well. They have to be presentable to the public at whatever level the job requires. They have to be dependable. They have to be trainable in the nuances of the job. They have to pass drug tests & often be bondable. They have to be able to prove they are even legal to be hired by ANY employer in the USA. Showing such ID which is required to properly fill out an I-9 form for a job.That has been the law since the 20th Century here in the USA.
Just being able to prove that you exist isn’t enough to prove that you are a WORKER!!!!
That fact seems to chronically escape the unemployed blacks in this country- regardless of age. Quitting school whenever they want & having a mile long rap sheet isn’t a mark of distinction in the community of employers——it is a sentence of PROVEN unemployable status.
B. There is a shortage of jobs which have NO SKILLS of ANY KIND. Even the guy who digs a grave has to do it to the satisfaction of the employer. A JOB is just that-—a JOB. It means that you have to have the skills to perform the job and have the rest of the attributes to make the employer happy about your work product.
America has more opportunities for education than any other country in the world. Refusing to use those opportunities is NOT the fault of the public nor of the employer. You who are unemployable are the cause of such choices. I & others have paid property taxes for years to support the community schools. We are not going to support an army of truant officers. Nor are we going to support YOU for an untold number of years forward. You are running out of chances.
Living a lifetime of being supported by those who are productive is teaching only that now, employers are supposed to pick up the baton & keep handing out paychecks to those who don’t deserve them. I don’t know a single employer who will sign up for this status & the risk to their company’s future.
A breaking point is coming & filling the USA with more illegals isn’t the way to deflect that breaking point. In fact, it will hasten the breaking point, IMO.
Authors & historians will have plenty of information for whatever books are still written 60 years from now.
The current administration is pushing for a race war. They haven’t learned to be careful what you ask for.
Looking like Detroit might be the best of these immigrant areas. I expect large parts of the southwest to revert to squalid villages indistinguishable from the barrios of their home country. Imagine Spanish speaking versions of Indian reservations where the government provides everything and the residents willingly live in grinding poverty with no jobs and just wait for their government dole.
You may be raising an issue I wasn't aware of. When I read of recidivism rates in the 50s and 60s, bad enough, are those only crimes committed in the state the perp was imprisoned in?
