Jobs? Did someone mention jobs?
Just yesterday I read that the administration claims the economy added a whopping 160,000 jobs in April. There are 94,044,000 Americans who are NOT IN the labor force. That means 94 million people not working who are NOT included in the 5% unemployment statistic the administration likes to claim.
And, meanwhile, we have more than 25 million foreign workers here who do have jobs. (And I don't think that figure includes the illegal aliens who are working under the table.)
Yes, I'd say we have a problem, and open borders is not going to fix that. On the other hand, a couple of days ago I stumbled across something from New Zealand. It was a list of job specialties they need. It was a very short list, and none of my skills would even remotely, approximately qualify. If your skills aren't on the list, you can't emigrate to New Zealand. Last I knew, Australia was the same.
Why doesn't the U.S. recognize that we NEED to do that so we can put Americans back to work in the United States of America?
