I don’t why Freepers are so angry when the aide is right. These people who are not cut out for the workforce collect welfare and are called leeches. They can be found in places where the last sentence heard in conversations is “do you know what I’m saying?”
Should we consign them to 60 years of “leeching” or cut the red tape and bureaucracy so that business can thrive and they can work? A man or woman that supports their family, even at minimum wage, is much happier, productive and mentally balanced than a welfare ward of the state.
I wonder what the same aides would think about those illegal workers who are here who cannot speak English.
They want their freedom here but seem to show loyalty to their dear Mexico versus the America.
They are saying anything that will stick; so they can pass this amnesty. I would never trust Marco’s aides. It also comes across as insulting now that two of his aides have said this/putting American worker against illegal worker. Not talking about a person with a green card while going through the legal steps of citizenship.
I worked in an underground mine the best part of my life. It was said that only white trash and Mexicans would work there. The work paid quite well but was rather brutally hard and hot (even with ventilation). Rural people used to hard work did well, urban people regardless of ethnicity couldn’t cut it.
West VA coal miners come from within the communities as well. I haven’t much use for urban type workers though I’d imagine the steel mill workers to be generally good folks.
There is some truth in what this aid says. Imagine the cast of Friends working in a steel mill.
So the "Conservative" answer is job training and/or tightening welfare requirements - NOT importing more foreign workers, 57% of who collect at least one form of welfare themselves.
As a high school teacher, it is obvious that many of America's young people have been assiduously taught how to NOT work.
Come in late, leave early, many breaks and vacations, minimal effort and still earn an "A".
Children learn more by watching than by listening and schools are Socialist Nirvana's.
Incorrect. The leeches are not interested in working for a wage, and few ever enter the work force. The people the aide refers to are the chronically underemployed, former tradesmen and laborers who have been cut out of the workforce by illegal immigrant labor. They are largely uneducated and unskilled so they cannot "retool" as white-collar laborers. But they cannot compete for their old jobs because they cannot afford to live on third-world wages. In the eyes of Marco Rubio they are "not cut out for the work force."
