    From John D Groenveld@21:1/5 to All on Thu Dec 8 11:35:20 2022
    PFIRDC.ORG's Joe Guzzardi on whether Donald Trump regrets dispatching
    Jared and Ivanka Kushner to Silicon Valley to sue for peace with the
    likes of Mark Zuckerberg: <URL:https://ustechworkers.com/tech-layoffs-may-give-u-s-it-workers-opportunities/>
    | The critic, Dr. Ron Hira, Howard University, political science
    | associate professor and Economic Policy Institute research
    | associate, countered that the rigged H-1B system is a transfer-of-
    | wealth scam that makes the employers wealthy winners, and the
    | workers, low-wage losers. Dr. Hira added that employers aren't
    | required to prove that a U.S. worker shortage exists before hiring
    | an H-1B, that H-1B workers' wages are set too low, and that the
    | compliance system doesn't hold employers accountable. "Guest-worker
    | programs are supposed to fill domestic labor shortages. The H-1B
    | program does not fill shortages," Dr. Hira said.

    Does Kellyanne Conway fear Trump will get outflanked by Ron DeSantis
    on the National Question by inviting the likes of Mike Emmons onto
    Ken Griffin's campaign stage?

    "Yiannopoulos added, he planned the evening "just to make Trump's
    life miserable" as word of the dinner spread beyond Mar-a-Lago's
    gilded walls. Fuentes backed Yiannopoulos: "I hate to say it, but
    the chickens are coming home to roost. You know, this is the
    frustration with his base and with his true loyalists."" - Charisma
