Many Nursing homes are horrific these days. Perhaps they need more qualified people working in them.

I don't really care what they need. They made the decision to come here and now it's the tax payers expected to help them when we don't even help people already here. Screw that

I'm moving on anyway, because I want to communicate with people that care about the American people first. Sadly, it isn't in this thread.
I care just as much about the American people too, because I am one of them. Trouble is, your definition of "American" people is WHITE a bit different from mine.

Ah, but if we did that, that's socialism!

Yeah, its a bizarre take. A large house/mansion wouldn't have the set up to properly delivery the services needed here. JBCC absolutely does. There are so many buildings there with dorm type / barracks, medical, food services infrastructure, security. It's just hardo posturing.

That’s right - backs of LEGAL, well-educated, highly skilled immigrants. It’s not the asylum jefe, asylum unskilled, uneducated illegals that turned all those GOOGs and AAPLs into trillion dollar companies.

Wait, weren’t you saying those migrants are here to save us, not to bleed us dry, just a few posts ago?

How silly to confuse startup / settlement services with long term contributions. They will all end up being net givers, not takers, in American society. That's what history tells us...heck, just look around and see all the enterprises where immigrants (legal or not) are working.

Was responding to the poster who claimed that America did not need ANY immigrants.

Are you telling me with a straight face someone with zero education and skills working a part time minimum wage job pays more in taxes than they receive in taxpayer-provided benefits, especially in a city like Boston or NYC?

Wait, so are you now saying there’s a difference between an average asylum jefe, asylum illegal and a green card holder who works at google?
