We DON'T have ENOUGH people to fill the manufacturing jobs, here. The thing is our manufacturing jobs require specialized skill and makes several times more than the ones we outsourced. But workers refuse to update their skill and instead just whine about jobs being outsourced.

But I'll bet they can make enough masks and medicine for a pandemic!

Yes, and they can get part time work as protestors and rioters.

Nothing better than an immigrant coming to a country, then trash talking it continuously.

If she hates it so much, perhaps she should leave.

She a nobody. Biden will likely appoint Louis Farrakhan as Sec of State or Defense Secretary.

Well, unfortunately, that isn't how people like her work. People like her enjoy the overall freedom that she has here, including the ability to verbally trash our country that she wouldn't be allowed to do in her country of birth and the opportunity that has been given to become someone that she could never become back in her home country. However, they really don't like us as people or our culture and, as such, they want to remake the culture, government and laws in a way that fits their ideology. They think that is the way this should work - America and Americans should conform to their cultural beliefs rather than them coming to America and conforming to America's cultural beliefs.

I can't stand any of the Squad members, but Omar makes me the sickest by far. She's the epitome of the American dream and success story. Her poor background from a war ravaged land to get the chance to come to America and to be able to make it into one of highest positions in the United States government. I mean come on here. How can you say this is systemically racist nation if a black woman, Muslim at that can make it into congress??

Damn she enrages me.

To further my thoughts on this subject, a couple of quotes to drive the point home:

"The old saying was 'when in Rome do as the Romans do'. The new saying is 'When in Rome tell the Romans what to do'." - Dr. Thomas Sowell


"What 'multiculturalism' boils down to is that you can praise any culture in the world except Western culture—and you cannot blame any culture in the world except Western culture." - Dr. Thomas Sowell

So, you don't have kids. Got it. These jobs are meant for retirees and HS kids looking for their first jobs. Anyone with any kind of parent had to get a job like mowing lawns or working min wage. Must be nice to skip that part of life.

Actually, no, I wouldn't trade places with any of these people. They are either reliant on others or suckin on the Govt Teat.

It actually disgusts me that people think they need some type of servant.
