That Immigration Raid at Hyundai Plant in Georgia

[YDB95]

Is that what you're all about? Picking and choosing what laws to follow?

You mean like Trump has been doing all his life? No, that would be totally unacceptable.
And yes, Hyundai broke our laws by hiring undocumented immigrants. That would be a lot less likely to happen in blue states with unions and worker protections.

It seems the arrests were not what they seem. Most of those were here on visa to install specialized equipment not available in the USA for short terms.

Koreans Legally Present

Blue states are sanctuary states, they protect illegals. Blue states exacerbate the immigration problems starting at the top with the corrupt Biden administration and the rest of the Democratic Party. Another pile of hot steaming crap from you as usual.

And yet the latest example you have to point to is in a red state. Hmmm...

And ICE went in, judicial search warrants in hand and did the job with no provocation from the Georgian political leadership with cooperation from Georgia state patrol. No riots, no protesting. This issue will be fixed and Hyundai will be better for it.

It should be noted that ICE is not limiting their lawful reach to just blue states.

Maybe political leadership on both sides of the isle should focus on recruiting and training American workers in these specialty skills.

There’s no question the high profile ICE raids are working. It’s very difficult and expensive to deport people. Experts say the government has the capacity to only deport around 600,000 people per year. Self deportation is much more effective. More than 1.6 million have self deported between January and July. The high profile raids have undoubtedly played a big part in that. Also a big reason very few are trying to enter illegally.

Excellent idea. They could start by offering a living wage, a right to unionize, and reasonable worker protection policies.

A living wage is much easier to reach where living costs are reasonable, without the extreme home prices, taxes, and fees of many blue states.

Please, someone, have this make sense.
You're saying that if you're in a poor area, then of course 8 dollars an hour is enough to pay for your expenses? WTF are you saying?

It ain't taxes that keep the poor people poor in any state. (Arguably it's the relative lack of taxes on the rich, at least partially.) Housing prices have risen a lot faster than inflation in general has, everywhere.

So let's eliminate taxes completely and give everyone a level playing field.

What will be your excuse when "the poor" still fail to prosper? That "the rich" are at fault?

You can't do both at the same time.

 

[HisArpy]

You can't do both at the same time.

Sure you can, we're all born into this world with nothing. What we do after that is 100% on us. Unless you're saying that "the smart ones" have more advantages over "the stupid ones."

Which is a conversation you need to have with either God or Gaia depending on your personal beliefs. However, I can tell you unequivocally that neither gives a shit because the rule is simple; ONLY the strong survive. Everything else is you trying to tilt the odds in someone's favor and that ain't how the game is played.

If that were within 100 miles of being true, Trump would be sweeping the floor somewhere.

Trump got where he was by working hard at what he does best. That he borrowed money from his father changes NOTHING because nearly everyone borrows money at some point. What those people do with it determines whether they succeed or not.

Trump, obviously, succeeded.

What you want to do is TAKE from Trump to give to those who couldn't figure out how to be successful. And only after that point do you say the playing field is level.

That's like giving away touchdowns to the losing team after the final whistle blows and calling it "fair."

 

[YDB95]

Trump got where he was by working hard at what he does best.

That is only true if you count being a media whore as "what he does best". I grant you he did indeed work very hard at that.

 

[HisArpy]

Sure. Well, that's the case if the only thing you know about Trump is "you're fired."

Which, considering your performance here on Lit, is probably about the extent of all things Trump that you know about. Other than the lies you spread that is.
