    It would be very interesting to know the wages of these Hatians and how they compare to the native workers.

    I’m curious as to whether they pay FICA? I mean, they are here temporarily, right? That’s the T in TPS. Also, what about benefits?

    There are conflicting stories about Medicare and EBT food stamps as well as HUD.

      By the way, if Mr. McGregor wants 30 more Haitians, why doesn’t he hire them? I’m sure he can find 30 employees that are derelict in their duties due to the rampant drug addiction in his native staff and with all the extra days off they take, he should be able find some positions to fill… And with 15,000-20,000 hard working Haitians in the community, he should be able to hire 30 in an afternoon…

        Ok, we're about a week or so post -debate. Now tell me, how much do you remember about that debate? If you were Joe Average on the street, what's the one thing you remember?

          Medicare ain't cheap, the story is probably Medicaid?

                          In the meantime, more and more is coming out about the new business model of not outsourcing to third world countries, but to bring third world countries here, instead.

                                      I have read through this article. It speaks of migrant labors working with very low pay and living in very poor conditions. It cites no instance of a worker being abducted there against his will, no instance of a worker disallowed to not work a particular against his will, not even an instance of a worker being paid below statutory minimum wage. It describes poor people living a hard life, it does not describe slavery.

                                      Feel free me to cite something concrete from the article that indicates "slavery" if you believe such credible evidence is provided in that article, in case I missed it.

                                      Also, none of the conditions, even the alleged ones (and the word "alleged" does appear many times in the article), is helped by Trump and Vance's rather irresponsible rhetoric. Heck, as DeWine states in his op-ed, Trump and Vance's rhetoric made things worse.

                                        I think that does meet a definition of slavery. At the least, it meets a definition of indentured servitude. People are deliberately being placed in situations where they can't say no and where the wages paid are substandard for the work.

                                        It becomes an endless cycle for poverty, and it takes jobs from American citizens, making it a twofer, giving a screwing to both sides of the populance.

                                          Without the rhetoric, we wouldn't be talking about this at all.

                                          Remember, debates are all about snapshots and memorable quotes. Trump broke the internet with the dog and cat comment.

                                          Now, all 👀 are on Springfield.
