"Job openings in US remain at record low; While layoff pace slows, employers are still hesitant" by Courtney Schlisserman, Bloomberg News | July 8, 2009
WASHINGTON - Job openings in the United States remained at a record low level in May....
But that DOES NOT STOP the GLOBALISTS from IMPORTING WORKERS and OUTSOURCING and OFF-SHORING JOBS!
Employers are cutting jobs at a slower rate than earlier this year after eliminating about 6.5 million positions since the recession began in December 2007....
Then HOW COME the PAPERS and GOVERNMENT didn't tell us until OCTOBER 2008!?

"From N.E. back to Brazil, with regret; Homeland's economy crushes dreams" by Maria Sacchetti, Globe Staff | July 8, 2009
CONSELHEIRO PENA, Brazil - Her homecoming has been a deep disappointment: The university where she studies pharmacy is more than an hour away. The long lines and bureaucracy drive her crazy. She cannot find a job - and is anxious that she will never have a real career.
Now she has a new dream: To return to the United States....
I would like to state for the record right now that my objections have nothing to do with race or anything else.
How would YOU FEEL being a CITIZEN of AMERICA -- loser of OVER 7 MILLION JOBS, let's face it, government lies -- struggling as you are being looted and lied to, having to READ THIS on the FRONT PAGE?
You know, IF IT WERE UP TO ME there would BE NO IMMIGRATION PROBLEM!
OUR CORPORATE POLICIES that DRIVE the PROGRAM -- ones that this pro-corporate, pro-globalist paper supports -- CREATE the VERY CONDITIONS of POVERTY in those lands!
Why don't we BUTT OUT and LET the PEOPLE THERE LIVE as they want?
Let's RAISE STANDARDS there instead of LOWERING them here!
As for the education and health care, it wouldn't be an issue. That film "Sicko" got to me, and if we can SPEND TRILLIONS FATTENING BANKERS' POCKETS and MAS-MURDERING MUSLIMS WORLDWIDE, then WE CAN TAKE care of ALL the PEOPLE HERE -- WITHOUT the GLOBALIST ECONOMIC INTEGRATION AGENDA!!!!!!!
Her frustration echoes among former immigrants in the state of Minas Gerais, one of the biggest departure points for immigrants to Massachusetts. Not long ago, they were living every immigrant’s dream, part of the tide of thousands of Brazilian workers who fled a sagging US economy to build a better life in Brazil with the money they made in America. Instead, many are struggling with low wages, unemployment, and even culture shock....
I'm sorry, I'm not feeling the empathy and love here-- especially when you read what I have further posted below.
So they TAKE MONEY OUT of the U.S. ECONOMY, hanh?
Please KEEP THAT IN MIND!!
Roughly 1.4 million Brazilians now live in the United States, including about 336,000 in Massachusetts, and they send home more than $2.7 billion a year, according to the Inter-American Development Bank and Alvaro Lima, director of research for the Boston Redevelopment Authority.
In Conselheiro Pena, the results are on vivid display: Palatial homes tower from the hills, a giant billboard advertises the gift of plastic surgery, and the
Do you KNOW HOW MANY POOR PEOPLE THER ARE in BRAZIL?
KIDS wandering the slums BEGGING?
They COULDN'T FIND SOMETHING BETTER TO DO with the $$$?
So the U.S. ends some ELITERS back to Brazil to party and splurge.
“There isn’t a family in this town who doesn’t have a relative in the United States,’’ said the mayor, Neyval José de Andrade, whose sister is now an illegal immigrant in Massachusetts.
But immigrants said the United States’ allure faded in recent years as the economy soured. They lost their jobs, the dollar was worth much less in Brazil, and they could no longer justify spending years away from their families....
Can you blame an American for feeling insulted by the paper? The agenda-pushers care more about illegals than they do Americans (something they prove everyday, and WHY they are TANKING)!
Cleumar, the carpenter who used to work on Cape Cod, said his former boss in Massachusetts still offers him jobs, and he probably will return next year. He did not give his last name because he plans to enter the United States illegally....
Thanks for giving him cover, Globe.
And wait until you read this:
The United States remains a strong attraction, even for those who are making a living wage here....
When WE AREN'T MAKING LIVING WAGES here?
--more--"
And this IS NOT about RACISM, readers!
I'm at the point now where MY FEELINGS as a HARD-WORKING AMERICAN for 30+ years have been HURT by the AGENDA-PUSHING "newspaper."
Now to ADD INSULT to INJURY!
"Immigrant tax impact assessed in report; But it does not classify legals from illegals" by Maria Sacchetti, Globe Staff | June 24, 2009
Immigrants pour billions of dollars into state coffers every year in taxes, according to a report to be released tomorrow that promotes immigrants’ contributions but does not offer conclusive evidence about whether they are a net cost or a benefit to Massachusetts.
And they TAKE OUT BILLIONS MORE!!!!!!!
Otherwise WHY are we in SUCH TERRIBLE SHAPE?
Need money?
Pigs at the State Trough

How many times I gotta put 'em up?
The report, commissioned by the Immigrant Learning Center Inc., an educational nonprofit in Malden, does not distinguish between legal or illegal immigrants. It comes as state leaders and advocates for immigrants are crafting policy recommendations, due July 1, for Governor Deval Patrick after a year of research on the nearly 1 million immigrants in the state, said Marcia Hohn, director of public education for the center.
And I NEVER really heard much back (see below)!
In addition, President Obama is launching a national debate this year over whether to grant legal status to 12 million illegal immigrants in the United States, including about 190,000 in Massachusetts. Obama is set to meet tomorrow with key members of Congress to discuss how to proceed.
HERE WE GO AGAIN!! Now I gotta CALL DOWN THERE ANGRY! When will they F***ING LISTEN!!!? What part of NO did you NOT UNDERSTAND, Congress!!!!?
In Massachusetts, immigrants paid about $1.2 billion in state income taxes in 2005 and $1.06 billion in local property taxes in 2007, according to the report, which was researched by the Institute for Asian American Studies at the University of Massachusetts at Boston. In addition, in 2006, immigrants bought $19 billion worth of goods and services. That figure includes $346 million in sales and excise taxes.
I'm tired of SELF-SERVING STUDIES!!!!
More than half of immigrant households in Massachusetts owned homes worth a total of $81.3 billion. Immigrants also paid $2.3 billion in gross rents in 2007. About 35.8 percent of immigrants and 25.8 percent of natives paid more than 40 percent of their income in housing costs. The report said that 16.4 percent of immigrants collected $1.2 billion, or about $8,674 per person, in government assistance such as food stamps - a percent that was lower than the 22.3 percent of natives.
I'm not going to comment anymore because I'm livid at the lies.
But the report did not contain information about other costs, such as emergency medical care.
Or the COST to our SCHOOLS!
The Federation for American Immigration Reform in Washington estimates that illegal immigrants alone in Massachusetts cost taxpayers $580 million in emergency medical care, education, and incarceration as of 2005. By 2010, the group estimates, the cost would almost double to $992 million if they were granted legal residency, and reach an estimated $1.7 billion by 2020.
Actually, WE MAKE OUT on the JAILS here in AmeriKa!
See: The Illegal Immigrant Imprisonment Industry
Right, and I'M the RACIST!!!!
Massachusetts is home to 912,310 immigrants - 14 percent of the state’s population. Sixty-two percent have been here for a decade or longer. An average of 20 percent are here illegally, according to estimates earlier this year by the Washington-based Pew Hispanic Center.
Probably a lowball figure, but what difference does it make?

And ABOUT that REVIEW of POLICIES, obfuscating and omitting MSM?
"Council recommends immigrant policies
A state advisory council on refugees and immigrants yesterday handed Governor Deval Patrick a long list of policy recommendations for better integrating immigrants in Massachusetts. The report, the result of the governor’s executive order last year, was not made public because it is still a draft.
Nooo, it was NOT MADE PUBLIC because the "draft" would be known to INCITE the ANGER of the TAXPAYING PUBLIC when THEIR TEACHERS and COPS are being given pink slips!!!!!
But the recommendations will focus on several areas, including healthcare, public safety, and increasing US citizenship, job training, and English instruction.
While the rest of us are being hosed!
The report is based on research and testimony from more than 1,200 immigrants, policy makers, advocates, and others at six public hearings and 15 private meetings statewide, said Eva Millona, cochairwoman of the council and executive director of the Massachusetts Immigrant and Refugee Advocacy Coalition.
Funny how those were VERY UNDERPUBLICIZED, 'eh?

And yet we get a REPOR...., 'er, DRAFT?!
