On The Dole

I was just laid-off a week and a half ago by my chump employer Houston Casualty Company -- they gave me a bitch severance package and then shorted me on the 4 days of PTO that I accrued and didn't use!

So I'm scouring the internet for jobs, whatever job I can find at this point, and it seems really fucked up in Los Angeles, where I think the Unemployment Rate is around 15 to 20% (unofficially).

As I'm watching some Ted Kennedy Death Coverage on CNN, a commercials runs about an unemployed breadwinner... and then it turns into an admonishment of the Obama Administration for letting 1.5 million immigrants into the country to take our jobs. It was provided by the The American Worker some group that is no doubt a front for some GOP/Confederate Political Action Committee that's trying to keep non-Whites from coming to this country.

The thing is this commercial is targeting LEGAL Immigrants, because there's no way for the government to measure and/or stop the flow of illegals. And from what I recall, you can't come to this country to work unless you get one of those 41-B Visas... and to get those, your employer has to submit paperwork to the government that indicates you, as the immigrant, have a skill that an American CANNOT fulfill. Most of the legal immigrants with sanctioned visas are usually scientists, mathematicians and computer programming specialist -- all jobs that American students over the past 25 years didn't concrete on or there's just a huge need for those skills.

Incidentally, illegals are doing jobs that white people typically have never done (as Blacks were around and those were all the jobs they could get, like janitors, trash men, housekeepers, basically shit manual labor jobs) or that Blacks won't do anymore since the Civil Rights Movement (unless they really have to mop floors and take out trash, which is usually the case for young, Black men 'cause they've been in jail). I'd really like to see a white housekeeper -- MAID -- that is, a young white janitor -- just doesn't happen.

So I take severe umbrage with this political group American Worker, what the fuck? You mean to tell me that some immigrant is going to take a job that just doesn't exist anymore? Should really ask for the repeal of NAFTA (the North American Free Trade Act) and force the Chinese to float the yuan so it's no longer artificially cheap (thus making all things from China cheap than they need to be by maybe 20%).

And what's really some shit is this commercial was up here trying to blame the Obama Administration for "continuing to allow" this to happen! I mean damn, like he could have changed the immigrant policy within his first 7 months. All the actions that were done under the Cowboy's Days in the White House are why the job situation is so fucked up. Get your concept straight, bitches!!!
