Heard an interview with trump saying he wanted to deport the jobless. I guess that is where ICE will be turning its attention to next.

From looking at the stats, it seems an odd choice as that is also a good chunk of his voter base.

Funny, looking through film lists & criticisms promising obscure/unknown/forgotten or movies you've never heard of, yet I've already seen every last livin' one of 'em..............

Well, the jobless do want to take your jobs.

Reminds me of something an 8th grade student of mine said long ago:

"We should eliminate the poor to stimulate the economy!"

Seeing the news....maybe not (I hope)
yeah no.

Well, about this time last year, immigration to the UK from the US hit its highest level since records began. I know Canada is also seeing record numbers (apparently, especially nurses) and overall achieving a negative net migration (the last time this happened in the US was during the Great Depression, when around 100,000 people moved from the US to the USSR in search of jobs). I'd imagine that must be opening up a fair few job openings.

Plus all those dishwasher and hotel maid jobs all the now-deported immigrants used to do.

According to a series of polls, the percentage of Albertans wanting out is in the high 20s, while those wanting to stay hovers around 70%.

Dishwasher is a uniquely terrible job that is nonetheless vital. I had an Uber passenger during Covid who was a waitress. I asked "how are you guys doing with staffing?" She said "not too good, our dishwasher is in 8th grade". This was in Belmont MA an unspeakably fancy town. Mitt Romney had lived there.
