Considering that unskilled labor and even a fair bit of skilled labor is more and more being replaced by automation...he might have a point. As it is jobs in this country are in short supply today, but in 20 years from now when automation levels up a few more times and our population is starting to look like 500 million....how much will immigration at that point be helping or harming those of african descent or any of us for that matter.

1stSgt Nelson Kerr - I don't think you quite understand the concept of past danger and future danger. And on that note I do not quite understand how you made the connection of things that happened 50 years ago or more to a danger that faces the working classes of the future and for that matter today...Do you understand the concept that as technology becomes more complex that more and more jobs will be doable by machine?

For instance right now they are working on self driving cars, assuming that that actually becomes a thing in the next 10 years, which by all reports it will, that right there could be upward of 6 million jobs that were obsoleted by technology. Hell maybe 20 times that if you consider that most forklift driver positions could be done by current AI technology.

Add to that that more and more manufacturing jobs leaving this country and those that remain are more and more being replaced by automation it leaves us in a situation where we literally need to consider what jobs will be available for people in general to work in 20 years.

But good job dropping some buzz words. It showed me the depth of your intellectual ability, I am so schooled. Let me tell you.

1stSgt Nelson Kerr - I don't think you do, you were unable to respond to anything I said and opted to just drop a few buzzwords like it was a mic drop. I mean seriously if that is all you are able to do then ...honestly I'm not sure what to say at this point.

I've seen more white people on the street corner holding up signs that reads "Homeless" than I see in the strawberry fields. Yet you see more Hispanic in the strawberry fields than you see on the street corner.

Far and away the majority of adult homeless people you see on the street are there because of mental health issues and/or substance abuse issues, not for lack of employment or government assistance. I am quite sure I do not understand your point.

The law of supply and demand is real. The presence of illegal aliens and unlawful residents, who are employed, puts an artificial suppressor on the price that labor can command. It is a fallacy to believe that farmers will allow their crop to rot in the fields and orchards for lack of farm labor. They will increase wages until they can harvest their crops. But as long as farmers paying a fair wage must compete against those farmers that rely on low-paid illegal immigrant labor; the problem cannot self-correct.

It is also a fallacy to believe that the American consumer will forego fresh produce and preserved produce because of a price increase, caused by paying a fair, living wage to agricultural workers. Their is no food that comes to mind that is not essentially an agricultural product, much of which is labor intensive to tend and harvest.

“Has any policy in American history hurt African-Americans more than our immigration policy?” Carlson asked Krikorian, who promptly replied, “no.”

Reeeeeeealy, now, guys?

How's about those slavery laws in the first place?

Or how's about the Jim Crow laws in the aftermath of the Civil War?

Or how's about the black exclusion laws in Oregon?

Or how's about abortion laws, which have killed about 15 million black people in a country whose black population amounts to 13.3% of the total population (about 41 million black people today)? The rate of killing of unborn black babies is three times that of unborn white babies, and amounts to about 27% of the black population had no abortions been performed. By any other measure, this would qualify as genocide.

Or how's about the social welfare programs which are based on government handouts in exchange for no tangible work by the recipients? Blacks are disproportionately enslaved, in a very real sense, to the government, who pulls their puppet strings in political maneuvers all the time, buying votes en bloc from people forced to exist on a subsistence level.

These two guys need to have a nice, piping hot cuppa STFU with a side order of Pack Sand.
