In 1924, President Calvin Coolidge signed the Johnson-Reed Immigration Act, which halted mass immigration into the United States.

 

The act completely stopped immigration from Asia, and set strict quotas on immigration from other places including Europe.

 

Wages began to dramatically increase.

 

By the 1950s, America reached the peak of its economic and industrial might. Economic inequality was low. Large businesses and workers alike were prospering.

 

Then, in 1965 the Hart-Cellar Immigration Act was signed by President LBJ, opening the floodgates and allowing for massive unchecked immigration, especially from the global south.

 

Immediately, income growth and wage growth for the bottom 90% of earners came to an abrupt halt.

 

Soon after, the incomes for the top 1% of earners skyrocketed, leading to the massive wealth inequality in America we see today.

 

The political left attributes this to simply a lack of proper taxation and regulation, but thatโ€™s mainly not the case.

 

Mass immigration has allowed for modern scab labor to become the norm, allowing large companies to pay lower wages for foreign migrants who demand less.

 

The loser? Americaโ€™s middle class, which has been deteriorating for more than half a century now.

 

When you see wealthy technocrats argue in favor of mass โ€œskilledโ€ immigration, keep this in mind.

A DISTURBANCE IN THE FORCEโ€ฆ

 

Cartoon published 12/28/2024

 

Weโ€™ve all read the stories. American workers getting canned in favor of cheaper, overseas workers.

 

In many cases those American workers must train the overseas workers or they wouldnโ€™t get their last paycheck. This has been going on since the 1990s. Bill Clinton supported NAFTA and American jobs were sent overseas. Clinton hailed it as a positive thing, whereas Ross Perot described NAFTA as a โ€˜giant sucking soundโ€™ that would bring negative effects to most Americans and the US economy.

Perot was proved correct. The rich got richer and average Americans got poorer, yet Vivek Ramaswamy sees it differently. He sees the 1990s as a decade where Americans got stupider and lazier, thus necessitating the importation of even more foreign workers from China and India by means of the special H-1B visas.

 

Vivek is wrong. American workers have not gotten stupider or more lazy.

 

They have gotten the shaft by the billionaire class who continue to get even wealthier. The DEI movement hurt workers as well. White American males in particular were rendered persona non-grata by corporate HR departments across the country. American workers are facing inflation, ridiculously high medical and medical insurance costs, and high taxation by the government blob. The American Dream of owning a house and sending children to college has become just thatโ€”a dream. It doesnโ€™t help that well-paying jobs are given to foreigners by means of the H-1B human trafficking scam.

 

KEEP US DRAWING IN 2025 WITH A DONATION!

 

We agree with Steve Bannon. The MAGA movement is populist, not globalist. Musk and Ramaswamy should stick to their DOGE assignment and cut government wasteโ€”not make themselves richer by bringing in millions of qualified Indians who will work for less.

 

Another mega millionaire, cartoonist Scott Adams, (who fancies himself as having a bigger brain than most) chimed in and said he had Indian neighbors who are fine people. Weโ€™re sure they are, Scott, but your empty virtue signaling misses the point. Yes, there are plenty of smart people from India, but if one truly believes in America first, then Americans should be first to get those well-paying jobs. The ultra-wealthy in this country have lost compassion for those who arenโ€™t wealthy and now their contempt is showing. There are plenty of smart people who are not mega millionaires. We donโ€™t need more concentration of that wealth into fewer handsโ€”we need more opportunities for hard working, smart Americans.

 

Elon made matters worse by threatening to pull out Republican voices who disagree with him by โ€˜leaf, stem and root.โ€™ Heโ€™s supposed to be a free speech absolutistโ€”letโ€™s hope he does not resort to silencing conservatives with whom he disagrees. Musk has not been a Republican for long and he does not speak for MAGA or the party. In fact, many disagree with his โ€˜dark MAGA,โ€™ sentimentsโ€ฆmostly because he used the word โ€˜dark.โ€™ MAGA is not darkโ€”it is sunny and shines the light of truth on corruption.

 

Trump is the sun that will help make that happen.
