Washington Post: Use Immigrants to Cut Americans’ Wages

Americans are finally winning higher wages because wealthy investors are trying to create more profit-generating jobs in an economy with few unemployed workers, the Washington Post’s editorial board admitted on April 5.

So the government should respond to this rare economic advantage for ordinary Americans by enabling investors and CEOs to hire more foreign workers, according to the editorial board’s opinion in the Washington Post:

This imbalance is giving workers and job seekers tremendous power. Pay is rising at the fastest pace in years, workers are quitting jobs and finding new ones at record levels, hourly employees at companies such as Starbucks and Amazon are starting unions, and companies are offering flexibility and benefits that would have been almost unthinkable pre-pandemic. These are welcome trends.
[…]
Companies are desperate for workers. Millions of legal immigrants want to work in the United States. This shouldn’t be so hard to fix.

The editorial board’s article is headlined: “The U.S. needs more workers. Too bad our legal immigration is a mess.”

The Washington Post is owned by Jeff Bezos, the owner of Amazon.com Inc., which is facing increased marketplace pressure to pay higher wages to its rapidly expanding workforce. Higher wages would trim the company’s profits, and shrink Bezos’ worth on Wall Street.

The skew in the Post’s pro-corporate, pro-Amazon, pro-investor editorial matches a same-day article in the Wall Street Journal, which is owned by Jeff Bezos’ billionaire peer, Rupert Murdoch.

Jeff Bezos and his secular jewish clan are destroying American and it’s Christian Culture. Kabbalist, secular khazarian (Israel) jews are masters of pulling the strings of their zionist puppets to take away all God given rights of free speech, gun ownership (personal responsibility for self defense), personal property, free-markets and trade, freedom of real money, freedom of association. etc…Who is John Galt? TEXIT!

This new generation of workers are amazingly debilitated. Mentally, physically, morally lacking skills. If you get them to the job site, they want you to hold their hand to the point that, you just as well do the job yourself. However, it’s not about the “who,” but the “what” with context to this article.

During the Nuremberg trials, the corporate leaders were asked, “Why they should escape prosecution (and they did)?” Their answer was, ” because we had to use the laborers from the camps. We had a fiduciary responsibility to our shareholders.” Let that sink in, that’s where we are in the USA right now.
