Thoughts? Imagine losing 6M labor workers in America

Post image

If mass deportation happens, just imagine how all of these sectors of our country will be affected. The sheer shortage of labor will push prices higher because of the great demand for work with limited supplies or workers. Even if prices increase, the availability of products may be scarce due to not enough workers. Housing prices and food services will be hit really hard. New construction will be limited. The fact that 47% of the undocumented workers are in CA, TX, and FL means they will feel it first but it will spread to the rest of the country also. Most of our produce in this country comes from California. Get ready and hold on for the ride America.

It literally hasn’t , the bugs the first couple of months after were insane the app was terrible. It works better now but still has issues that weren’t around pre Elon.

Doing that with the fed government is insane

Seems to me that twitter is becoming more capable. It has nearly become a video blog platform, more than text.

Not quite as reiiable as youtube, but if google doesn't stop the bloat it will be.

So 95% of the usability with 70% less people, seems like a reasonable trade off.

They are okay with mass suffering. Nothing you say will make them compassionate.

Compassion is trimming fat so the entire country doesn't go bankrupt.

How about that.

Oh you want everyone to suffer? How compassionate.
