Most muslim immigrants are on welfare and the ones that do work are not good workers. It's all culture and white replacement wrapped in economics and labor costs false arguments.

Immigrants aren't coming to work hard for lower pay. They are coming for welfare and to push their ethnicity and culture into power.

The government, we, pay them not too work and pay them to work. These immigrants are beyond not needed and beyond worthless.


Either the fools think with mass 3rd world immigration they're going to drive down labor costs and magic soil and magic government will make the immigrants equivalent and interchangeable with white westerners, or they're just doing it to bring down and replace white, western culture all together. Regardless of why they are doing it, the latter is what's happening.

A company policy can't trump religion. In fact it's part of the Supreme Law of Land. Moreover, where there is a burden being placed on a religion in a workplace because of company policy, a well organized and stated claim for religion will always trump the companies policy.

Why can't they simply pray during their normal breaks? Is there a policy that forbids them from praying while on break?

Not true. The Republicans are just as bad. And, as I have said in a previous post, most of the Americans that won't work the jobs are drug addicts or welfare queens. There are so many programs out there, a lot them can cobble together an existence, such as, free phones, some housing, medicaid, food stamps, aid for dependent children, free medical clinics for the indigent, churches or food banks that provide free food. There is often not much incentive to get a job or something other than a temporary or transient job and then take off for awhile. I see it all the time.

Some of the immigrants do work. But, have you ever bought a house that didn't have a square wall in it ? My nephew did and it was an upscale neighborhood. He said it was all Hispanic subcontractors in there doing the work.

I am with Stephen Hawkings, humans are doomed.

I'm not sure, I'm not Muslim and don't know much about their requirements. I'm sure some compromise could be put together. I liked the idea where they would just make up the time they spent praying later.

It's sort of like the Seventh Day Adventist being required to work on the sabbath.

I'm not saying it's right, I'm saying Cargill shouldn't do anything stupid and be fortunate these are immigrants without the capacity to organize and do something about it. But then on the flip side, Muslim rights aren't exactly in style right now so it works two ways. The generalized requirement is that a company is Substantially Impairing their free exercise in some fashion, do note that a lot of these accompanying statutes were enacted to protect Christians in the workplace by Various Congresses.

Easiest question to answer yet. Of course robots will repair robots. And do it better and faster than humans ever could. And robots will build robots.
