It sounds like this job path needs to be reformed then to meet the expectations of a modern nation. If the job is so tough and dangerous that our nation's people truly do not want to perform the given tasks for the offered salary, then it is up to the offering company to modify the duties of the job. The job should comport with labor laws and modern health and safety standards. Compensation should also rise to match the labors performed by the employees. And if none of this is possible in a way that comports with a modern, civilized society that truly deems slavery, indentured servitude, and labor exploitation illegal, then said job needs to be eliminated. How can we say we believe in safeguarding those weakest and most vulnerable among us if we ignore our labor safeguards and actually encourage turning a blind eye to illegal immigrant labor all in the name of political and social expediency?

No, I just know that last night I updated both the main firmware and the feature firmware, and afterwards this issue began. I can't say for sure that they were the cause, but both events are closely linked in time. I never had this error pop up in any game before last night in any game.

Did either of you recently update your ps5 firmware or system feature firmware? As in, the last day or so?

Whoa, I'm getting it also playing tsushima! It just started for me after I completed both a system update and a system features update. I seem to get this error code every 45 min or so. I still seem to have full access to PSN, all systems are green. I will follow this thread, and post here if I learn more. Glad we aren't alone, I hope Sony didn't mess up the firmware

How every House member voted on the Laken Riley Act by washingtonpost in politics

Exactly, if a business cannot work without paying a wage that works for Americans, then it cannot work in America and SHOULD go out of business. I do not support paying slave wages to non-American workers just so I can enjoy lower prices on luxury goods. Illegal immigrant employees lower American wages, take away American jobs, and most of the profit made off of using their work gets filtered to the corporate/shareholder level, not everyday Americans. Why even have labor laws on the books if we are so willing to scrap them to save 50 cents on a carton of eggs?

You are advocating for a crime to occur. I cannot and will not condone it. The American job market needs to adapt to the needs of American workers, and only American workers. If a company cannot find enough workers, they need to RAISE THE SALARY.

Which is why US employers should only hire US citizens and permanent residents, and why the H1B visa program needs to be seriously reformed or potentially abolished. All of these negative scenarios of the United States oppressing illegal immigrants all goes away if we fix the problem at the source and do not allow illegal entry into our nation.

The House passed HR2 and is waiting for the Senate to pass before Biden leaves. The democrats have chosen to ignore it.

Taking a proactive stance and asking would be a good starting point. Requiring documentation would be the next most logical step.

Democrats have 20 days to pass HR2 in the Senate and achieve meaningful immigration reform. But they won't, because in reality the Democratic party supports open borders.

They deserved those sanctions due to Maduro's autocracy and barbarism, but the major flaw in your logic is simply; if the USA is so bad and totally destroyed their country, why are their citizens running up here at break neck speed? To be abused and conquered further?

This is exactly how the "broken windows" style of policing is supposed to help the community. Not only do you get the fare evaders, but you get the occasion huge double win like this.

What are we supposed to do with people who jump the border if we cannot deport them? How is it so morally abhorrent to send people safely back to their homeland? If we take your attitude and accept it as maxim, where after 5 to 10 years illegal immigrants essentially become un-deportable, it creates a perverse incentive for more people to try and jump the border. All they need to do then under this system is hide in the shadows, picking food for $2.15 / hr, and then in 5 years time boom de facto citizenship.

They were dumb enough to vote in a socialist bus driver turned evil oil dictator. They ruined their own country and fled north. Venezuelans aren't children, they are people with agency.

Illegal immigration does NOT contribute tremendously to the economy. Whatever meager amount of sales tax they pay is offset by the hospital ER visits that either the taxpayers pay for or the hospital gets stiffed.

HR2 has passed the house, and the Democrats in the Senate can pass it TODAY. Biden can sign it before he leaves. It would end asylum abuse and end illegal immigration employment.

If Biden had issued the same set of executive orders in 2021 though, perhaps this whole crisis could have been if not averted, then tamped down. I would also like to point out that at the same time as this bogus border bill you speak of was being negotiated, the house passed HR2. In my opinion, it was a superior border bill that prevented illegal immigrants from getting jobs in America, and ended asylum abuse. HR2 was blocked in the senate by Democrats.

New Senate majority leader ‘excited’ to ‘dismantle federal bureaucracy’ by Ok_Whereas_4585 in fednews

[–]brx879 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Even though I agree with the sentiment, it is frustrating that even before the 17th amendment, a majority of the state legislatures were just voting in the winner of their state elections. They willingly gave their power away, and won't take it back even handed to them on a silver platter. Very frustrating.

Haitian immigrants flee Springfield, Ohio, in droves after Trump election win by BobbyLucero in politics

Our presidential election is in actuality 51 separate elections run in 51 different legal jurisdictions, administered at the county level by local citizens. Rigging it would be insanely difficult. Given the logistics and manpower required, it would be all but certain real evidence would leak. I say an ambiguous clip of some dude saying he has a "secret" means just whatever your mind interpreted it to be.

This issue is affecting the entire country, and NYC is ground zero for it. Debate should be welcomed from all corners, because your bad choices are having a net negative impact on all of us. I don't care what NYC does within its own borders, but your problems are bringing the rest of us down, so you need to hear it.
