Candidate Joe Biden is such a fascinating gaffe machine that sometimes his serious policy quotes get overlooked. He had one a few days ago when he was speaking to the Asian Latino Coalition, where he uttered the much-reported Bidenism, “Poor kids are just as bright as white kids.” At the same event, he supported […] August 11th, 2019 | Category: immigration politics | Tags: 2020 campaign, Democrat, foreign workers, immigration, increase legal immigration, job displacement, Joe Biden, President Trump, RAISE Act, schools, Senator David Perdue, Senator Tom Cotton |  Email This Post |  Print This Post The presidential election of 2016 had zero mention of the coming automation threat, so the appearance of tech entrepreneur Andrew Yang as a 2020 presidential candidate was a hopeful sign that America might be alerted to the mass unemployment that is predicted for the future by numerous experts. Andrew Yang discussed his presidential campaign on […] July 31st, 2019 | Category: replacing workers with smart machines | Tags: 2020 election, Andrew Yang, automation, Chris Wallace, foreign workers, jobs economy, manufacturing, robot, smart machine, unemployment, workers | Email This Post | Print This Post Dishwasher seems like a perfect job for newbie unskilled immigrants: English is not required and training is probably an hour, max. It’s one of the more basic jobs. In fact, an open-borders booster website says, Immigrant Dishwashers Do the Jobs Americans Don’t Want, so we spoiled citizens apparently need foreigners to keep our plates clean.

The magazine does like its articles long and rambling, so the reader learns about assorted agro-facts like grower complaints about the H-2A visa, the manual skills required to pick delicate strawberries (“a wristy twist that prevents bruising […] April 13th, 2019 | Category: replacing workers with smart machines | Tags: agriculture, automation, farm robot, foreign workers, H-2A visa, national security, picker machines, robot, strawberry | Email This Post | Print This Post Fox Business TV host Lou Dobbs had been an enthusiastic supporter of the president, but the recent sight of Trump cozying up in the White House with Apple CEO Tim Cook and US Chamber of Commerce honcho Tom Donahue sent the broadcaster over the edge. Even worse may have been the reaffirmation of increasing […] March 9th, 2019 | Category: immigration against Americans | Tags: cheap labor immigrants, corporation, foreign workers, increase immigration, job displacement, Lou Dobbs, President Trump, Tim Cook, Tom Donohue | Email This Post | Print This Post It’s hard to feel sorry for journalists losing their employment because of automation since so many of them have never been sympathetic to the job loss of American workers caused by inexpensive immigrants. But now smart machines are moving into news offices and are already cranking out articles that are heavy on numbers, like finance […] February 6th, 2019 | Category: replacing workers with smart machines | Tags: automation, foreign workers, immigration, media, newspaper, robot, robot reporter, smart machines, technology, technology job loss, unemployment | Email This Post | Print This Post There is plenty of chatter about immigration flying around the ethers on a daily basis, but very little concerns the big policy basics of Who and How Many. Senators Tom Cotton (R-AR) and David Perdue (R-GA) have done the nation a service by developing and submitting a bill that recognizes the reduced need for foreign […] August 3rd, 2017 | Category: immigration enforcement | Tags: American wages, American workers, foreign workers, job loss, legal immigrants, RAISE, supply and demand | Email This Post | Print This Post Fast-food restaurants are a major target for automation developers because of the high labor costs connected with preparing food and dealing directly with customers. Kiosks for ordering food have begun appearing as a result of their simple design. In February for example, Wendy’s announced it would install kiosks in 1,000 restaurants (around 16 percent) by […] July 5th, 2017 | Category: replacing workers with smart machines | Tags: aliens, automation, food prep, foreign workers, job displacement, restaurant, robot, technological unemployment | Email This Post | Print This Post We already know that foreign cab-drivers are a bane to life and safety, so seeing them replaced by self-driving technology would be an improvement. A few examples come to mind, particularly Jordanian immigrant Jehad Baqleh who murdered Julie Day in San Francisco at the suggestion of the devil, he said; the Bangladeshi cabbie who in […] September 27th, 2016 | Category: replacing workers with smart machines | Tags: automation, diversity, foreign workers, government, immigration, job displacement, robot, self-driving cars, self-driving trucks, Washington | Email This Post | Print This Post Is working in this country’s spectacular national parks a job that Americans just don’t want to do? Apparently the government thinks so, judging from the foreigners it promotes to the head of the line. The recent death of 21-year-old Ecuadoran Estefania Liset Mosquera Alcivar is regrettable, but it does remind us of how Americans are […] August 27th, 2016 | Category: replacing American workers with cheap foreign labor | Tags: aliens, foreign workers, job displacement, national park, Yellowstone | Email This Post | Print This Post Leo Perrero is becoming the face of the American IT worker fired and then forced to train his foreign replacement or else lose his severance package. A few months after being rudely laid off by Disney Corp, he appeared on a local station in Florida. On Friday, he discussed the issue with Lou Dobbs. Former […] March 5th, 2016 | Category: replacing American workers with immigrants | Tags: Congress, foreign workers, H-1b visa, immigration, job displacement | Email This Post | Print This Post On Thursday, Senator Jeff Sessions’ Immigration Subcommittee held a hearing titled, The Impact of High-Skilled Immigration on U.S. Workers. The hearing was not that different from a similar one last March, and it indicates the desire of the chairman to enact some meaningful reforms. However, killing the H-1b scam outright seems the appropriate action when […] February 26th, 2016 | Category: replacing American workers with immigrants | Tags: foreign workers, H-1b visa, H-1b worker, hearing, high-skilled workers, immigration, job displacement, train replacement workers | Email This Post | Print This Post |
