Do not watch at work or around your kids, huff's pals here use a lot of f words
People come in here and post rapes and murders by illegals and huff stays silent, we run short of people to pick avocados and that's why gets ole huff fired up. Crazy times with these libs.
Did you spot huff in that group?
Nobody GAF. Close the border.At first blush, this seems to make intuitive sense. But new a new paper in the Journal of Development Economics helps show why new immigrants do not, in fact, tend to hurt native workers. After reviewing the flow of Syrian refugees into Jordan, researchers found that "Jordanians living in areas with a high concentration of refugees have had no worse labor market outcomes than Jordanians with less exposure to the refugee influx."
That's particularly eye-opening given the scale of the migration. Over 1.3 million Syrians moved to Jordan from the beginning of the Syrian civil war in 2011 to 2015. That's a huge influx into a country of 6.6 million Jordanians.
The study's result is consistent with the vast majority of economic research about immigration's impact on wages. The Mariel Boatlift in 1980 is a common case study.
In 1980, amid especially bad domestic economic conditions, Cuban dictator Fidel Castro allowed about 125,000 people to leave the country. They fled to southern Florida, increasing the size of Miami's labor force by 7 percent in a matter of weeks. Given the sudden nature of this change, and given that most of these migrants were not particularly high-skilled, the Mariel Boatlift a good place to examine how immigration affects wages. And most studies of the boatlift find that the boatlift did not reduce native-born Americans' pay. A 1990 paper by the Berkeley labor economist David Card, for example, found that the boatlift had "virtually no impact on the wages or employment rates" of lower-skilled Miami workers.
The Harvard economist George Borjas reached a different conclusion. His paper, published in 2017, found that the wages of high school dropouts in Miami fell by between 10 and 30 percent after the boatlift. But now a new study in The Journal of Human Resources finds that the wages of high school dropouts in Miami didn't change relative to the wages of high school dropouts in other cities that did not experience a large immigration influx.
How, you might ask, is that possible? After all, the basic laws of economics suggest that an increase in the supply of labor should lower the price of labor. But increased immigration doesn't just increase the supply of labor—it also expands the demand for labor.
The Nationalist Right Is Wrong: More Immigration Doesn't Reduce Wages
He should be removed for failing to do his job. Hope the voters take notice.
Will he jail illegals who have committed crimes?It's not his job. His job is to jail people that have committed local crimes, which he is doing.
We actually want local police to leave immigration alone. We want them to be friendly to illegals, because their priorities are to keep the peace and spend funds wisely. The reason we want them to be on good terms with illegals is we want illegals to report crimes, and they aren't going to do it if the sheriff is going to lock up everybody they can get their hands on. If you are an illegal and a victim of violence or property crime, we want you to report the crime. A sheriff who says he will not jail illegals is a sheriff who is building trust with that community. It's smart government, for once.
