Your response DOES NOT say ANYTHING about those jobs now being made available to legal workers, does it?Blackvegetable » 24 minutes ago » wrote: ↑ Because it isn't "obvious", in fact it isn't - at all.
The study estimated that between 51,000 and 297,000 of the lost jobs would have been held by American-born workers, as businesses that rely partly on immigrant workers scaled back operations for everyone, including US-born employees.
In the 86 cities that saw the sharpest rise in ICE arrests, they found roughly 13 lost jobs associated with each excess arrest. Industries that traditionally employ a large share of undocumented migrants, like construction, saw the biggest impact. But employment in sectors like arts and entertainment, where few immigrants work, also fell sharply. The authors said that’s because businesses cut staff as people stop going out when ICE raids dominate the news.
“Enforcement at this scale and speed — visible, shocking, designed to produce fear beyond the directly targeted population — destroys jobs, disrupts businesses that Americans own and run, and depresses the local economies in which Americans live and work,” Marcela Escobari, Ian Seyal and Paul Beach wrote in the report.
EVERY JOB that was held by a deported worker IS NOW A JOB OPEN FOR AN AMERICAN!
And it's a totally **** claim, and here's why!
The deportation of a worker DOES NOT DESTROY THE JOB! The job IS STILL THERE, and all it means is that someone else will be hired to replace that deported worker!
How is it that you're so dumb that you can't understand that?
