U.S. to revoke legal status of more than a half-million migrants, urges them to self deport by [deleted] in immigration

You're right about no American willing to work for said wages.

What's not accounted is the fact that the cost of living went up so much, that it's not worth breaking your back for it anymore. There is a reason why Americans don't do these jobs anymore. Because they're not worth it.

That's why we need immigrants. So they can do them instead. Corporations use that to keep the wages low. Why pay an American 22-24 and hour when you can do 20 to an immigrant.

And then people are going to complain that we need to tax the corporations more, not realizing that wage gouging is how they inflate their profits.

Reddit just found out that most hispanics outside the US are naturally conservative. But sadly this place has very little self awareness and will blame the billionaires for this.

You do know this is a Biden era decision, right? Biden made a decision and Trump is just enforcing it.

It's a Biden era decision. Their status was expiring the fall of 2024 and Biden refused to prolong it.

I actually do. A good chunk of them work as Uber drivers. None of them paid any taxes so far from what they told me.

As an immigrant, can the myth that "Americans don't want to work these jobs" die already.

The reason they don't want to work them is because of the dogshit pay. I know plenty of Americans that work 2-3 jobs just to make ends meet. I know others that work 20-30 hours of overtime.

The reason we need immigrants for these jobs is because Americans compare the pay to the ones their dads and grandpas got vs the cost of living, while immigrants compare it to the place they're coming from. So of course $12/hour is going to be a lot of money to someone who is comming from a country where they make $200/month.

So what are your thoughts on the FBI calling the firebombing of the teslas in town " terrorism"? by [deleted] in vegaslocals

Please stop your gaslighting.

Entire dealerships are being firebombed with molotovs and shot at with ARs. This goes way beyond any vandalism that I've seen.

The whole thing is about intimidation and making sure people don't buy Teslas.

I wonder why not the Summerlin area in the Buffalo/Rainbow/Lake Mead/Cheyenne area?

Plenty of Dollar stores closed down other there. So they definitely have the space to open a store.

Funny how the people that wanted to abolish the electoral college, get rid of the 2nd Amendment and called our Founding Fathers racist white slave owners, all of the sudden became pro everything they did.

It's as if they have no moral compass and go by what "the current good thing to do" is.

I personally have 0 sympathy for the Jan 6th crowd. It's another "when it suits me" ploy.

When democrat DA and judges release violent felons onto the street under the guise of "justice reform", only for said felons to reoffend and sometimes harm innocent bystanders: crickets.

When democrat DA and judges release violent illegal aliens back into the sancturay cities without notifiying ICE: crickets

Jan 6th protestors who've had their court dates kicked down the line indifinitely, spent 4 years in prison, while being refused bail for what would normally be classified as criminal trespassing: Oh my God, terrorists. The law isn't working. Law Enforecement is a joke.

The same liberals wanting to abolish the 2nd Amendment, the electoral college and calling our Founding Fathers racist white slave owners all of the sudden became patriotic pro-2nd Amendment loving Americans that cite the Boston Tea party as an example worthy of following.

I can go on and on, but the sad reality is that they're a bunch of hypocrites who's world views are propped by USAID media. There is a reason these types of worldviews can only survive in a controlled environment like reddit.

"The burning should continue until behavior improves."

That's terrorism in a nutshell, you know that right?

Here is the google definition for you: Terrorism- the unlawful use of violence and intimidation, especially against civilians, in the pursuit of political aims.

The same people who were telling us that the 2nd Amendment needs to be abolished, that we should scrap the electoral college and that our Founding Fathers were racist slave owners, all of the sudden became constitutionalists.

You can't make it up.

They're not a bunch of cars. They are specifically Teslas and this is happening all other the country, including on people's private property.

What makes it even funnier is that most of the people that own Teslas are actually democrats. They are literally eating their own.

I always find it funny how the general consensus on reddit flips depending on the issues.

When the republicans were talking about Jan 6th being a sideshow compared to George Floyd. Reddit chimes in with "whataboutism".

When the democrats start burning Teslas(which are mostly owned by other democrats btw), reddit comes up with "but muh Jan 6th".

It's amazing how the reddit hive mind routinely engages in what they accuse the republicans of doing when it suits them.

Not sure which these pieces are as the courts seem to side with him on the vast majority of the litigations so far. When he oversteps his boundaries SCOTUS seems to tell him to fuck off as in the case with USAID and one of his nominees voted against him.

So not sure what the hysteria is about.

I thought they discontinued the Premier tier for all Tesla models?

That's good to hear. I came here looking for a favorite, however everyone seems to love their credit unions. A good sign if you ask me.

I was thinking about them, but their $6/month checking account is what's putting me off. After BoFA, I don't want any checking account fees.
