Give them jobs ... teach the trades of carpentry, electric, plumbing, HVAC, etc as an apprentice program, working on the homes.

The only issue with that is that it's actual work. You have to move around, carry heavy things, even sweat. We've imported a peasant class so we wouldn't have to do that sort of thing.

It's funny the only people trying to create a "peasant class" as you put it is Republicans. Who oppose steps to legalize those people as well steps to hold employers accountable.

Fuck off with the your dishonest bullshit.
 
Peasant class my mayonnaise white ass!

The Guatemalan immigrant that does hardscape and landscape work for me will work your ass into the fucking ground! This man does not know the meaning of stop until the job is complete.

I could probably waste three pages writing some of the Jobs we've done on my property. He works for $20 an hour and thinks that's the greatest thing in the world.

Oh yeah, that's his side hustle. He works in a local factory over here on the 3-11 shift. He's got two kids and his wife has MS. He speaks some pretty good broken English and I speak some horrible broken Spanish. Between us we communicate OK. I don't pry or get very personal but he does complain about the paperwork he's been going through for years!

Do you feel like a tough guy now that you've put me in my place?

I have no delusions you have been put in your place. Your long history here speaks for itself.

But the rest of us don’t have to pretend that you aren’t dishonest and easily manipulated by propaganda.

Have you figured out yet the Olympic boxer wasn’t a man?

Nope…you did that to yourself. Moving from CA to the poorest state in the union…Mississippi. Locked in a gated compound.

I can understand leaving Cali because of taxes, but Mississippi? Had a Bret Farve hard-on?

All I can say is that you get completely different quality of hand car washes between Westminster, CA and Silverdale, WA. I'll let you get the difference. Clue the one in CA is miles better, and you are glad to give a nice tip.
 
Not the Villages (our central FL county barely went for Biden) but yesterday I was driving along and saw a bunch of people (maybe 10-20, I didn't count) with signs and waving at cars. At a glance it looked mostly like older white women, but they were on the other side of this 6 lane busy road and I was moving so I'm not sure. Surely the Trumpers were out early, I'd have to find time to swing back around and flip them off 🙂 Nope--Harris and Walz signs all. Color me surprised, I don't remember ever seeing people (and barely any signs) for either Hillary or Biden over the past 8 years.

Considering Biden did win, maybe that's a bad sign, who knows 🙂

Look like someone finally got caught. By the way it's legal to have ghost candidates in FL as long as you follow the law. 🙁 Apparently this guy didn't.
