Trump supporters fail to realize that large-scale immigration and a general labor shortage can coexist at the same time. The United States has shortages in all kinds of blue collar jobs, such as mechanics, plumbers, electricians, truck drivers. At the same time, more and more working class white Americans are dropping out of the labor force.

There's been a great deskilling of the American labor force. It actually reminds me a bit of the American Indians who lost their traditional ways of life and descended into addiction, poverty and despair. Make that comparison around leftists though and they'll have an apoplectic fit. But it's true. And Trump will not save them.

Here's a great mental image: You can in an hour drive from the Dallas-Fort Worth metropolis, one of the largest in the country and booming in part thanks to immigrants from all over the world, especially Latin America and Asia, to a Choctaw casino on the Oklahoma border, which is one of the largest casinos in the world, and is booming thanks to poor whites from all over the region -- and who are in serious physical and moral decline. The Choctaw were also a pro-Confederate tribe that kept slaves. And a painting of the chief done up like Kim Il Sung greets visitors when they go in the casino. This is not a cyberpunk novel it's real life. BrutalistMcDonalds has issued a correction as of 09:30 on Feb 17, 2016 |

Liberals can't get workers to buy into socialism so they are using scab labor to keep wages and the job market depressed in order to force working people to go on welfare.

Though likely would on the degree. Things like loving around with South American countries to keep banana prices low is some serious bullshit, for example. You take care of your own first, so that you have the capability to take care of others when needed. We have a lot of taking care of our own to do, and Republican policies of austerity are not the answer.

the trump tutelage posted:I meant "difficult" as in "good luck even getting the opportunity," not "work is hard abloobloo". You don't have to be a Master tradesman to qualify for union membership in the first place. Most trades certainly have a place for apprentices, and journeymen. Journeymen also make very good pay after putting in the years and experience, so even if Master certifications are limited in your field it's still lucrative work.

Electrical work pays well because the licensing and insurance requirements keep illegals out of the trade.

That's how all of the trades work, so I don't know what kind of point you're trying to make. If you want there to be mandatory licensing to pick fruit or roof shingles, then maybe you should organize laborers and agitate for favorable regulations.

Man, you've got a serious problem with illegal immigrants. There's no point in blaming desperate people fleeing their terrible countries with no future. Blame the rich assholes who pay them so little and work them half to death. They're the real problem. If you want to get rid of illegal immigration, just enforce the law on the demand side. Trying to round up people and their families is inhumane and like bailing water with a seive.
