This damn immigration thing is really making me mad, how about you?

Question

Now i have learned two of my nephews got layed off from a big construction company. Bother are journeymen electricians. Within a few days they learned the company had hired more than they laid off. And who do you think replaced my union nephews? You guessed right. They speak spainish, not english, and they are skilled workers. But they make half as much as my union nephews who are now on unemployment until the try to find something that pays enough. I will bet that story is typical all over over the usa. Yes, and i have a neighbor who runs his own air conditioning and heating contract company. He is being eaten alive, he says, by people from the south who can do the work and have cut his business in half over the past couple of years. Millions of contractors (carpet layers, brick masons, plumbers etc.) are suffering. But the government thinks immigration, waves of people crisscrossing the border is good. I don't and it is natural they would come and take over. Need new blood in DC!!!!!

Answer 1

Sir I agree with you I live in Dallas and where I work there are mexicians working there. they work cheap and they steal what is not nailed to the floor.
I think in the end the mexicans will win.

Answer 2

I know just what you mean. The illegals are running this country into the ground and if we do not force the issue right now then we can forget it because the politicians know that Americans are fed up with it. With election year coming up they will listen (or pretend to) and get at least something started about this problem. If we don't force it now then all will be lost for the next four years. So Americans, stand together and start marching in the streets like the illegals do! Call your reps and even the White House. Get everybody you know to call. WE HAVE TO STAND TOGETHER ON THIS ISSUE AND START MAKING SOME NOISE OVER IT, OR THINGS WILL JUST GET WORSE!!

And if you think that it only affects the blue collar workers, think again.

Answer 3

I believe your nephews were laid off , for lack of proper work performance, or just plain laziness

My reasons

Number one you said it was a union shop, Unions do not allow companies to fire employees without cause, they have a involved grievance procedures.
(2) Union Shops have hire (ing) list by what employees are on a list waiting for the next available jobs.
(3) Union members would walk off the jobs if (scabs) were hired. Union members are very militant about their contract rights

US workers are protected by EEOC job protection provisions.
Why did your Nephews not file a complaint with EEOC ,if what they say was true , the EEOC will find in their favor and give them back their jobs with back pay.

Too many of these their taking our jobs !! Are out right Miss information attempts.
We are a country of laws and we have laws that cover everything.

i won't be able to talk for human beings, yet i'm mad at him via fact he's no longer giving me what i'm inquiring for. i choose a return to unfastened industry principals and a smaller government. each little thing he does is going against that end. turning out to be jobs by using stimulus? each dollar he's utilising to create jobs is a dollar that replace into first removed from the financial equipment. If those money hadn't been taxed away, the folk who earned it would be turning out to be jobs with it. He would not care approximately jobs, he in simple terms needs government jobs. This financial equipment replace into no longer created completely by utilising "grasping banks". It replace into led to by utilising the government who theory that anybody could very own a house, inspite of no count number if or no longer they might pay for it. So the government pushed for much less complicated lending, the banks went alongside with it, hoping for ordinary revenue, and then while the bubble popped in ordinary terms the banks took the blame. Oh with regard to the school loans? the government reported i do no longer qualify for ANY pupil loans, and because Obama and congress made it so in ordinary terms the government can provide pupil loans, i'm caught without adequate money to discover the money for an training. thank you, Obama. "yet on the comparable time, the undemanding solid, the morals that united statesa. prides themselves on. the yankee dream. is okay if in ordinary terms some human beings could have it eh? appears like bigotry to me! " never! in case you elect to usher with regard to the undemanding solid, donate money to charity! the type between liberals and conservatives is that conservatives have self assurance that folk could be unfastened to assist their fellow guy as lots or as low as they elect. Liberals have self assurance we could consistently be forced to furnish to others, and be thrown in penal complex if we don't.

Answer 5

Thats just how it goes. Someone said "you earn what you deserve" and I agree. These "illegal" people work at things that are available to them and that require little or no experience because thats all they can do. But we are born as citizens and are given great opportunities. We arent born thinking that we want to be fruit pickers or cheaply paid construction workers or just plain bossed around. We are given the ability to excel in this nation and if you did not take advantage of that thats you own problem and their is no excusr cause if I can do it anyone can. People who dont take advantage of these opportunities end up in a volatile sector of dirty jobs and blue collar ones, thats how life is you cant complain, times are changing and you have to adapt. Life comes at you once not time to complain, we have to take responsibility for our lives.

This nation is not reserved for a particular race. History is repeating itself this is the same situation we had with the early chinese, russians, irish, japanese, germans and even so called "communist" people. We all thought that they were going to change our way of life or that they were some sort of invaders or primitive people or even demons...EXAMPLE: native americans an even colored people. All because of our lack of knowledge and tolerance and our fear of the "unknown".

Answer 6

This is a really fascinating issue. The majority of voters in BOTH parties want something done about illegal aliens, but the leaderships of BOTH parties LOVE illegals. Some Republican leaders and candidates are making a big issue of it because they see it as an issue where the Democrats are more vulnerable, but if you've been looking at the situation you'll see that once in office they will do just what Bush is doing--nothing.

Democratic politicians love illegal aliens because they know that newly-naturalized citizens almost always vote Democratic. Republican polticians love illegal aliens because they are cheap labor--they keep down wages for -everyone-, and Cheap Labor is one of the GOP's highest priorities.

So if you vote for the Republican candidate who makes the most serious noises about illegal aliens, you KNOW--I don't have to tell you, you KNOW--that after the election it will be business as usual.

In fact this is how MOST campaign issues work. Because we don't hold our politicians accountable for their promises. We can't solve -this- problem until we solve -that- problem.

Answer 7

there is a fine line there with immigration and illegal immigrates but some illegal immigration dont leave because they have fell in love. my boyfriend is stay because of our 2 month old son and me. but do to stupid laws i'm having trouble helping him. so i wish people would just understand that because one person is bad that all other people that ethincy is bad too. i'm sorry about your nephews but think about the ones who are here and want to stay because of there family and love ones but can't is it right for the government to be able to tare apart a family and not allow a infant to even know his father or for them to take someones love of there life away. i don't think so

Answer 8

the company did it not the workers.they probably didnt know poeple were layed off for them.step out of your narrow minded narrow viewed box.look at it from the hired workers perspective.did they know that was going to happen?no.
how do you know they are all hispanic?other ethnic groups come here illegal too you know.
sorry to hear about your nephews.they could take the time to go get a degree so no illegal can take their job.

Answer 9

what are you getting mad about I feel for your nephews but man why you getting mad at the little man . hell you should be pissed off at the business not the little man making pennies on the dollar for laying off your nephews. its this corporate culture crap about maximizing their profits. you have to dig deeper to find the truth.

Answer 11

Poor babies.

I lost my job - as did almost 5000 employees across the U.S. -- because our jobs were outsourced to Manila, Mexico City, India and elsewhere.

Guess what most of us did?

We went out and found another job......

Therapy would help, I believe.
