California: Massive Layoffs of Americans Replaced With Foreigners

d2d

I have a friend who's 65 and works for minimum wage at a 7/11. He got laid off and replaced with an illegal alien willing to kickback a big part of his salary to his boss. So much for dreams of $15 an hour.

In California, massive layoffs are being spearheaded by multi-billion dollar Southern California Edison, which is terminating scores of American workers and replacing them with immigrants willing to work for less. But don't worry. There aren't hardly any foreigners in Seattle, are there?

A minimum wage worker getting replaced by an illegal alien willing to kickback a big part of his salary?

First of all, why didn't your friend report both the 7-11 owner and the new employee to INS?

Second, even if the new employee was legal, this practice is illegal on so many fronts, kind of hard to get away with it, once reported.

Third, if a business owner has to get a kick back on a minimum wage employee salary to stay afloat, that business isn't going to last much longer.

Fourth, there's a new Walmart being built every 15 seconds or so. Why doesn't he apply there for the same pay, instead of having to spend his day being harrassed at the cash register, and having to clean the slurpee machine?

First. Seattle is a Sanctuary city, and my friend doesn't like to make trouble, ever. I offered to represent him pro bono and he got very angry with me.

Second. See, supra.

Third. Are you familiar with simple greed?

Fourth. He's trying without any luck. He's 65 and doesn't have a car. Have you heard of age discrimination?

More questions? This is fun. Thanks for your help. I never would have spotted these issues on my own.

First, your friend is a huge pussy.

Second, if he's your friend, then you're a huge pussy, too.

Third, fuck you for bringing such a bullshit story here, when there are a million real stories of fucktardedness you could have delivered instead.

Scary shit huh d2d. Lots of votes for dems and a lot of broke white AMERICANS. Dems forgot to think about the tax base. Its gone. Who's going to compensate? Broke white americans. This cuntry is fuckered. Im hoping for Iran and a bad nuke deal. Then soon they can put America out of her misery.

Nukes cook really good popcorn!



Personally, I like the M110A2 Atomic Shell for popcorn. It's small enough for your kitchen and makes a great Christmas gift.

I don't see eye to eye with d2d much but he has a point. Foreigners, legal and illegal, from poor and lower middle cuntries have been pitted vs. 'Mericans for a while now. They help stagnate or even lower wages and weaken union power.

I'm not just talking blue collar, lower wage, and trade jobs. Plenty of white collar jobs like engineers have gone to foreigners.

... and all Obama cares about is the fact that they're 62.5% likely to vote "D". ... and all the RINO's care about is corporate PAC contributions.

@d2d, how would you feel about your fictional, elderly friend receiving welfare checks and food stamps?

He wants to work and won't take welfare. He did get food stamps but only after I personally dragged his ass to DHS. Right now he's working part time getting paid under minimum wage under the table. He's a vet and already would have free healthcare at the VA but he won't take that either.

Believe it or not, a lot of baby boomers were taught self reliance. Just because the system is set up now as a social welfare state doesn't mean that your government's "customers" want that or will take it.

Between Section 8 benefits, Obamacare, food stamps, SSA, SSA Disability, VA disability, and VA non-service pension benefits, there should absolutely be nobody homeless; but there are millions of homeless. Interesting fact, there are more vacant foreclosed houses than homeless.

Social welfare only works for people who want social welfare. Funny how that functions.

The first thing I learned in business was to listen to my customers, no matter what I was selling; legal advice, investments, anything. Odd how politicians think they have all the answers and never ask their customers what they want.

You had me at float plane, but you lost me at Pious. A Prius is a woman's car. This is what I have my eye on.

Boomers are the most narcissistic, entitled generation ever.

Their parents bled for this country and they Woodstock'd instead.

I feel absolutely no sympathy for that age group. They had the world by its dick and fucked it up.

The only wood stock I know about was on my M-14. But I defer to you for knowing everything about my generation.
