Exclusive–Wilcox: Foreigners, Not U.S. Citizens, Benefit Most from Biden’s Job Market
https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2024/06/18/exclusive-wilcox-foreigners-not-u-s-citizens-benefit-most-from-bidens-job-market/As another recent jobs report showed persistent low unemployment, other data demonstrates many of these job gains are being devoured by foreign nationals at the expense of American workers.
Data released earlier this month from the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) found that 637,000 foreign-born workers have joined the U.S. workforce in the last year, while roughly 300,000 American-born citizens have left it. Given the 10+ million illegal aliens who have entered the U.S. in the past three years, it is likely that many, if not an outright majority of these foreign-born workers are in the country illegally. Another recent report found that roughly three-fourths of all new jobs since 2019 have gone to foreign-born workers over American-born citizens.
Much has been made as to why attitudes about the economy remain so poor despite low unemployment. Biden Administration officials have been perplexed as to why they aren’t receiving more credit for job gains in the economy. Most pundits and politicians have pointed to inflation as the main reason that Americans’ confidence in the economy remains low, and that certainly is a decisive factor. Another major factor, however, is the toll mass migration has taken on Americans’ ability to earn a decent living. U.S. politicians are in office to serve the needs of U.S. citizens and should not expect to receive credit for job gains that largely go to foreign nationals.
Mass migration has made American workers less competitive in the job market, and driven up housing costs. For many Americans, the large number of migrants that have been imported into the U.S. in recent years, both legally and illegally, has put the American dream out of reach. Americans are a welcoming and compassionate people by nature, but have become fed up with mass migration due to its negative effects on American families and workers. A CBS poll conducted earlier this month found that 62 percent of Americans want all illegal aliens deported, much to the consternation of CBS anchor Margaret Brennan, who reacted in disbelief when the poll was read live on air during her show. The CBS data comes on the heels of another poll from Axios showing majority support for mass deportations of illegal aliens, and another recent poll from Gallup finding that immigration is now the top concern facing Americans. However, it’s not just Americans who are waking up to the problems posed by mass migration.
Most job growths are from foreigners, not American citizens.
