You'll note that during the weekI only post in the morning or early afternoon. I can't post from work.

You should work more overtime like a San Francisco janitor.

We all know what tin would be doing for a few hours a day in the closet.

fair enough, but it had a low-hanging fruit element to it that i couldn't resist.

It's looking more and more like Trump might sign a new travel ban EO.

It's definitely one of the planks in the platform.

Wasn't sure whether to post this here or in the SJW thread.

Trump could worsen a big problem in the housing market

At first glance I wondered what Trump could be doing to affect the housing market. Income taxes? Interest rates? Banking regulations? Nope. Illegal immigrants.

The tight supply in home construction results from a shortage in able construction workers. And, given President Donald Trump’s aggressive ambitions to crack down on undocumented immigrants, homebuilders may have an even tougher time finding workers in the future, according to Yun.

“It’s widely known but less discussed that there are many undocumented workers at construction sites. And with the border being much tighter, it may lead to a greater construction worker shortage unless America can crank out people with the skills in construction, plumbing, lumber framing, and welding,” he said.

So we should just leave the immigration situation as it is now, and we'll have plenty of cheap labor to build our homes? I had no idea the critical skills in homebuilding these days are provided by illegal immigrants.

Yesterday Yahoo had an article saying that home prices could be depressed because some immigrants had to cancel plans to purchase a home. Today home prices could go higher because of a shortage of illegal immigrant labor.

Some of the dumbest things you'll read these days are found on Yahoo.

Yahoo is a shell of its former self. Even the great "brain trust" Marissa Mayer didn't do anything good to help that failure of an organization. We'll have to see if they'll even have a news department once the sale to Verizon goes through.

Big business is in favor of lax border control.  It saves them billions of dollars in salaries.

It also is one of the reasons salaries are stagnant.

Everybody pictures the illegals being berry pickers and hotel maids but they take up a big slice of the skilled manual labor as well. The difference in treatment of low skilled and manual laborers is the driving force behind a monster share of migration worldwide

...and we all cheer when they report record profits and we own their stock...
