       @JLownlaw I don't blame him for firing the administrative class, if they are just going to engage in obstruction or malicious compliance, which they will.

       it didn’t even make good economic arguments, except on immigration. (and of course anti-immigration folks would be unpersuaded. they are happy to make the trade anyway)forbes has followed the economist down the drain i guess

       @ademan @JLownlaw I agree with some conservatives that the number of illegal immigrants is dramatically underreported. it would be economically destructive to deport them all rapidly but I didn't follow the unemployment argument. if all those jobs were vacated, tons of unemployed citizens might be enticed to do those jobs. If they started paying humane wages. Which I guess they won't, to which I say good riddance to those shitty jobs. The economy won't stop.

       either the jobs are important enough to pay more for (to attract citizens), or they’re not.in either case the consumer is worse off, but in the first case the people who got jobs are better off. the question is of course, “by how much?” then “how do we weigh these things against each other?” and “is it our place to pick winners and losers?”(the last one only libertarians even ask, everyone else assumes the answer is yes, except shitlibs who ask it only when it’s politically convenient)

       @ademan @JLownlaw maybe half the fast food industry would close down if they had to pay decent wages. which would be good for america tbh.

       @sun @JLownlaw @ademan It's time to force living wages, watch all fast food close down, and have the zoomers revolt.
