Well yes. that is at the current pay rate. Rich millionaires love legal and illegal immigration because it keeps wages stagnate and guarantees their position at the TOP! That is why I asked coach K about the effects of population, but he did not take me up on it. I could write a book on this subject, but only a few here would bother to read it.

I was able when he said it, to validate it, and as you noticed, it was opposite of what thevadministration was doing and preaching.

You better to begin reading and listening instead of you traditional one liners going for the left, which by the way is not me, and never has been.

I do not generalize and my anti anything is pretty well documented on here as to why's.

That's because conservatives have no sense of humor. They are worried that someone will displace them on the totem pole of success. They pass laws to protect themselves. Do you realize that the US is around 30th in all qualities like "upward mobility on world lists". We are behind England, but nobody in TV Land cares to believe me. You will NOT!

I do not care to talk about myself on here, but your assumptions are very very far off the mark, because when I read your posts, your intent is not to discuss, learn or share...it is to disagree.

Now many on here simply come here to "find fault" sort of as a hobby, and that is where I have you slotted, right or wrong.

I worked for the GOP for years, been an activist for that party for over 50 years.

The party left me....I am, and always will be a conservative who believes in truth, morals and have never moved. The party became corrupt and I left. Does not mean that everything they say, I reject. I am an American before any party.

I do not follow or believe in conspiracy theories as they do at present.

I believe in honesty and not blatant lies.

I also believe, my party will descend even lower unless...well, don't know what will be the savior.

I point out, and all of this is to show how you misjudge. The GOP picked up seats in the last election, but lost the WH. Means the weak llink is at the top....and the embracing continues

I'm not sure where you have been. Most of your comments make zero sense in terms of the unemployment question. How can you debate or not get that we have a 6%+unemployment rate and every company is desperately looking for help. 1 reason unemoyed are simply being paid more vto stay home than work. (drop mic)

Technically we have a 6.5% unemployment rate but only because people not currently looking for work are not counted as unemployed.

Why look or want work when the govt will pay you to be a burden on society.

Yep, exactly.

I have been doing a weekly trip up and down I-95 to Maryland. I CANNOT GET ANY FOOD!

Unless it stop at sit-down restaurants I can't eat. I'm pulling a big trailer so I can't do drive throughs, and ALL the fastfood dining areas are closed.

Sickening to see what our beloved country has become in just a few short months.

Unemployment benefits and other government support programs interfere with "normal" economics.

I'm not saying that they're not necessary or good in some cases but they interfere with the normal supply and demand which is the basis for economics.

Remember the old adage - Sink or Swim? Many people of our generation worked multiple jobs to get ahead, or worked long hours to keep heads above water.

Now, it is the responsibility of the government and US - the taxpayer - to support people who don't even want to work ONE job. And they get food stamps, etc. etc. while there are signs everywhere saying HELP WANTED.

The He!! with that!
