At least that is what the ICE guys said on the last raid when they
were just confiscating fake IDs



Always amazes me that the bile and insults aimed towards hard-working
Mexicans typically doing jobs U.S. citizens won't do isn't also aimed at
the banksters and brokersters who tanked the U.S. economy and the
corporationists who sold our jobs offshore and are raking in record
profits because of cheap labor.


That was non-responsive.

Why bother quoting previous messages if you are not responding to what
was said?


It was perfectly responsive. Whatever the "illegal" Mexicans are doing
in manual labor jobs, they didn't tank our economy.


You're right, Clinton, et al, aren't Mexican and aren't illegal.

You think it takes courage?


More than a coward who tosses out endless insults and hides behind
anonymity like Fla Jim does.


How is 'Fla Jim' any more anonymous than 'FOAD', for example, or
'Keyser Sose'?



Oh, right, because I used to post here with my real name and no one
knows it. Right.


Why did you decide to go anonymous and why?

American used to do those jobs. What changed? More pay for not working?


Many of those jobs were filled by high school and college kids. You don't see many of
them working nowadays.

Oh, snerk.

Now you are snerking Mike Bloomberg? He is to the left of you.


Oh, Mikey is writing under a nom de plume now, eh?


The last time I looked "Bloomberg Business" was one of Mikey's rags.



And you think Bloomberg looks at every article every day planned for his

I think that if you are not writing the type of article Mike likes,
you won't be working there long.

Do you have the same opinion of Fox and Murdoch?


I doubt Murdoch watches a lot of Fox News. He's not, after all, the sort
of idiot the network attracts to its "news" programming.

Back in the day when I worked for a big circulation daily newspaper, the
stuff on the editorial pages -opinions and op ed pieces and features-
ran the gamut. There was no effort made to kiss the ass of either the
editorial page editors or the managing editors or the publisher. My
guess is that Bloomberg himself pays little attention to the content of
his publication(s).

Now, my hometown paper, the New Haven Register, was "responsible
Republican" in those days, and it rarely endorsed other than Republican
candidates for political office, but it had little difficulty getting
behind editorials that were "progressive" in nature. Of course, back in
those days, Republicans were *responsible* and not the sort of insane
trash that party puts forth for national office these days.

"Nationwide"? That sounds like something that *might* be happening in
a few union dominated states where you have to be in the union to work
but it is certainly not true most places.
Guys around here are always having troubles finding local kids who
want to learn a trade. That is coming from the electrical contractors
group I belong to, not just a rumor on the street of an "anecdote".
Kids do show up but most never finish the apprenticeship. The work is
too hard.

Right now hiring in the building trades is up 7% so far this year
(according to the news today) and they are advertising everywhere
trying to get more people.
If you know some trade guys who can handle a little sunshine, send
them down.


Uh, northern unionized trade workers/apprentices avoid Florida for the
most part in the spring, summer, and fall months because your pay rates
suck.
