    Via Breitbart Immigration, Breitbart.COM/immigration, see John Binder
    on whether Kellyanne Conway fears Ken Griffin and Lachlan Murdoch
    will allow Ron DeSantis to outflank Donald Trump from the right by
    campaigning as a tribune for legacy American proles against their
    dispossession and for their posterity: <URL:https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2022/12/15/wapo-unfilled-u-s-jobs-belong-to-foreign-workers-not-americans/>
    | The Washington Post published a piece suggesting that more foreign
    | workers are the answer to filling unfilled U.S. jobs - not
    | necessarily a national full employment agenda to pull millions of
    | jobless Americans back into the labor market, particularly working-
    | age men.
    |
    | Major corporations are represented on the Post's board of directors,
    | including Berkshire Hathaway and the Coca-Cola Company. Mass
    | migration groups like TheDream.US are also represented and companies
    | such as the Vanguard Group, with a history of outsourcing American
    | jobs, holds a stake in the Post.

    | The Post's Abha Bhattarai and Lauren Kaori Gurley write:

    |
    || A shortfall of immigrants is worsening widespread labor
    || shortages and hobbling the U.S. economy at a time when more than 10
    || million jobs remain unfilled, particularly in low-paying and
    || physically demanding industries such as hospitality, agriculture,
    || construction and health care. [Emphasis added]
    ||
    || ...
    ||
    || The crisis had prompted senators on both sides of the aisle to
    || try to strike a deal that allowed more legal immigration in the
    || weeks before Republicans take control of the House. But those
    || proposals never got off the ground, making an immigration overhaul
    || far less politically feasible. [Emphasis added]
    ||
    || ...
    ||
    || Economists say it's difficult to quantify exactly how many
    || foreign-born workers are missing from the labor force, particularly
    || when it comes to undocumented immigrants. By one estimate, the
    || United States is shy of about 1.7 million legal immigrants based on
    || pre-pandemic migration trends, according to Giovanni Peri, director
    || of the Global Migration Center at the University of California at
    || Davis. [Emphasis added]
