No burn intended. People are leaving that state in droves, tho.
The cost of a slave compared to a house has no connection to skill level of agricultural work. The supply of slaves and the potential labor output would be much more relevant.

Does it matter? You despise both.
Lol, re ed alt
No kidding.
Maid wages would probably depend on the Hotel (I'm sure they get paid more in fancy Hotels vs. a Motel 6). But no matter. Agricultural companies in California offered increased wages and benefits above minimum wage, and the native born Americans didn't show up. Nor did the supposed "unemployed" Midwestern demographic who saw their livelihoods outsourced and are eternally pissed off at foreigners for "takin their jerbs."
Why does it make more sense to allow skilled people vs. unskilled in the country? That "sensibility" should depend on what the labor market demands. If we're having trouble filling unskilled positions with native born Americans, then allowing them in at a higher rate vs. skilled workers makes more "sense." "But higher skilled and wealth creation!" You don't think reduced labor costs and higher bottom lines for companies increases "wealth creation?"
In California, at least, kids with STEM degrees are cheap. Finding a kid to do roofing in 100 degree weather for 12 hours is actually more of a rare bird these days.
Not a new phenomenon. The highest net out-migration we had was actually in the 90s (peaked at 300K. Fun fact, two termed republican governor at the time). Net out is at about 100K.
what's your source on that?
I'll dig up mine. Seasoned workers brought a much higher price due to the length of the learning curve.
Agriculture isn't plug and play.
I agree that in our modern tech ubiquitous environment, "back breaking" blue collar work demands more comparative skill (pushing through physical exhaustion, enduring the monotony of the work, working efficiently with all manner of tools, are all "skills") than sitting on your ass coding or running data through an algorithm. 7 year olds can in' code, but are total morons when it comes to using hand tools.

If it's on a pyramid you know it's true.
Maybe Derp, Chris, Nathan89, or koriwhat can unpack what Louis Gohmert is talking about.
Probably implying something about immigration law/open borders.
I tried to plug my Bluetooth speaker into a corn cob. No worky.
Thanks for this wisdom.
Contextually that makes no sense, Darrin.
It's hard to tell whether you're more glib or dense sometimes.
lol more homework assignments
What's your thoughts on the Gohmert piece?
A POC spoke rudely to a pregnant Manhattan fortess dweller.
Darrin cut right through all the PC bull to the real heart of the problem.
y Muslims the day after a historic mass slaying.
it's sideways sympathy for the shooter.
"The Jewish problem is real, but Hitler's methods were too extreme."
"Jews are great. Muslims are great. All that killing is happenstance."
Sounds like he's saying mass murder isn't the solution to your country allowing people that you don't want there.
Of course some people are going to pick more bushels than others which will demand a higher price. That pertains to the labor output. The price of that individual will also be cut drastically if there was a surplus in slaves.
Keep going guys, you're doing great.
The world isn't changing for you guys, you're going to have to adapt to it. There really is no big divide, both the more vocal conservative and liberal factions are actually minorities by themselves.
Was gonna recommend to catch a plane and go to some more conservative country, but those are either largely anti-democratic (North Korea, China, Russia, etc)...
Then cut welfare. Sounds like low skill labor is a distribution problem.
Because I think low skill labor is a distribution problem in this country. While I've been hearing for years that the country needs more stem workers which would point to a supply problem. If that's not true then there is also no need for them either. But yes higher skill people create a better opportunity for industry and job creation. Reduced labor costs is a benefit to the company and a negative to other Americans that compete for them. If we're seeking reduced labor costs then why are we trying to increase minimum wages?
