Great!
And here’s a suggested price list.
For every non-American we catch illegally crossing our southern border, Mexico pays to America:
$250,000.
Plus:
$500,000 per count for each additional crime committed.
$1,000,000 per count for smuggling drugs or guns.
$2,000,000 per count for human trafficking.
$5,000,000 per count for rape.
$10,000,000 per count for homicide or manslaughter (including death by auto accidents).
$100,000,000 per count for terrorism.
Plus, $1,000 per day per each illegal alien incarcerated in America on any charge.
Plus, $50,000 per each vehicle stolen or damaged by aliens who illegally crossed our southern border.
Plus, actual damages for all property damaged by said illegal aliens.
All of the above cumulative per each count.
Just doin’ the job our government won’t to do.
...and compounding interest.
Amen.
And we can add to the list.
$500 per each emergency room visit.
$1,000 per day for each hospital stay.
And $1,000,000 per each deported offender returning to America.
Catch and release or deport and return should be very expensive to Mexico.
We’ll get a wall or fence or barrier of some kind built where appropriate and or effective border securement and enforcement measures implemented by Mexico and Mexico will happily pay for it and they’ll happily pay for our border security personnel and all costs of enforcement.
It's "associated with." Correlation is not causation. The whole economy expanded during the time they cite, 2000-2007, so how do they know those jobs wouldn't have been created if the H-1Bs had never come?
Also, expanding H-1B suggests that all those new jobs that are created will now be able to go to more H-1B folks instead of U.S. citizens. Suddenly the board is changed because more pieces have been added. If the law keeps changing to add more H-1Bs, then H-1Bs can keep snatching up all these "created" jobs, and this prediction which is based on a period of time when H-1Bs did not increase, will not come true. They want H-1Bs to expand enough that they can snatch up all the newly created jobs that supposedly were forced to go to U.S. citizens in 2000-2007 because H-1Bs stayed static.
• Adding 100 H-1B workers results in an additional 183 jobs among US natives.
And that probably happened because these crappy low-paid workers wrote such sh!t code that it took almost 2 American workers per each one of them to clean up the mess they made.
I like the numbers. lol
I’ve already answered.
... • Adding 100 H-1B workers results in an additional 183 jobs among US natives.
The 262 and 183 numbers are totally bogus. They are dependent upon selecting a time span that includes the tech crash of 2000-2002, a time span that included steep losses of both native and foreign workers. See http://econdataus.com/amerjobs.htm#section3. However, if the 2000-2007 time span of the study is moved forward two years to 2002-2009, a time span with general job gains (at least through 2008), the relationship reverses, showing a correlation between foreign job gain and native job LOSS. I would be interested to hear Zavodny address the fact that her exact same formulas show a reverse correlation for 2002-2009 (or 2002-2008). I suspect that she will never address that unless she is asked by someone who she cannot ignore.
People need to realize that, just because someone is a professor and/or has PHD after their name, it doesn't mean that every paper that they attach their name to is correct or has even been reviewed. The one that you reference is a "working paper". That's especially the case when they receive funding from a lobbying organization as I believe Zavodny did for this paper. Unfortunately, many otherwise intelligent people seem to think so. Check out the names on the "Parrot Page" of people who mindlessly parrot those numbers without doing anything to check to see if they have been verified. They include Senators Orrin Hatch, Jeff Flake, and Ted Cruz and the White House web site. For a longer analysis of the study, see this link and for an analysis of another bogus study, see this link
Nice!
No question. She is using pure globull warming “hockey stick” logic to get these numbers. Thanks for the links. Maybe Cruz would change his position if he saw how the study was debunked. Some of those other guys are definitely in the tank for cheap labor and are just using these numbers as an excuse.
