GREEDY FUCKERS!
EXPLOITERS OF WORKERS, WHETHER LEGAL OR NOT, SHOULD BURN IN HELL... Or the local jail!
Undocumented workers in
Houston face hazardous conditions and unpaid wages

According to a report published by the University of Illinois at
Chicago, day laborers in Houston are being exploited amid recovery efforts in
the aftermath of Hurricane Harvey. The report highlights the economic
exploitation of these workers and the hazardous working conditions they face.
The report surveyed 361 workers in the Houston area in October,
approximately one month after the hurricane. The vast majority of them engaged
in disaster relief in the area were from Mexico and Central America, 72 percent
of them undocumented.
In Houston, undocumented workers are hired on an as-needed basis
for manual labor in construction, landscaping, loading and moving. In most
cases, undocumented workers are hired at some 20 informal hiring sites in the
Houston area, located near building supply stores, gas stations and along major
roads and intersections.
According to the report, 26 percent of
undocumented workers
reported wage theft—
nonpayment of wages for work completed—in
the period
following Harvey. The unpaid
wages among the 361 workers surveys
exceeded
$20,000, with an average of
$212.48, a median of $85 and a maximum
amount of
$2,700. Furthermore, 44 percent
of undocumented workers reported wage
theft in
previous months, and 57 percent in
the past year.
The report establishes that workers did not know where to report
wage violations and wage theft. The Texas Workforce Commission (TWC) is the
agency responsible for assisting workers in recovering denied wages. Among all
workers surveyed, including both documented workers and American citizens, not
a single one identified the TWC as an organization to seek assistance with wage
claims.
The workers have also been forced to work under hazardous
conditions and do not receive training needed to protect themselves from hazards
during disaster relief. Eighty-five percent reported that they have not
received any training for the worksites they are involved in. Eighty-seven
percent have not been informed about risks related to unsafe buildings, 85
percent have not been informed about risks of mold and working in contaminated
water and 83 percent have not received training for working around fallen trees
and electrical lines.
More than one-third of workers reported being injured while
employed in Houston. Of those injured, 67 percent said the workplace was
unsafe, 63 percent said the injury was due to lack of protective equipment and
52 percent said that they were injured due to pressure to work faster.
The report also indicates that most undocumented workers in
Houston do not have proper safety equipment. Forty percent of undocumented
workers in Houston do not have protective eyewear, 61 percent reported not
having a respirator to protect them from mold and chemicals and 64 percent
reported not having a hard hat. These items are all basic safety equipment
imperative to the type of work the laborers are asked to do.
The study is limited and cannot capture the full scope of
exploitation, as there are over 600,000 undocumented immigrants in Houston
alone. After the hurricane, many immigrants were afraid to ask for government
assistance or evacuate damaged homes for local shelters. Although local
officials, such as Mayor Sylvester Turner, assured immigrants that they would
not be targeted during disaster recovery, many still feared deportation. Of the
undocumented workers surveyed in the report, 64 percent said they were not
comfortable seeking government assistance after the disaster.
Texas Senate Bill 4, which went into effect in September,
prohibits the adoption of policies that prevent police from questioning the
immigration status of someone they have detained. Officials who fail to comply
with the law could face jail time and a fine up to $25,000 for repeated
violations. The law, aimed at outlawing “sanctuary cities” in Texas, has been
upheld by an appeals court and is the source of much fear in undocumented
communities.
The wage theft and abysmal working conditions relief workers are
facing in Houston further reveal the criminality and gross negligence of the
response of the American ruling class to natural disasters. The xenophobic mass
deportation program, intensified under the Trump administration, subjects
already exploited immigrant workers to police state repression and abuse.

These babies are destined to transform America. The nativist CNN reporter
Lou Dobbs estimates that there are over 200,000 (dated) "Anchor Babies"
born every year whereas George Putnam, a radio reporter, says the figure is
closer to 300,000 (dated) . La Voz de Aztlan believes that the number is
aproximately 500,000 (dated) "Anchor Babies" born every year."
Pew: Even if Migration Ended, Europe’s Muslim Population Will Continue to Surge — Sweden 1/3 Muslim by 2050
The Muslim population of Sweden could hit 30 per cent by 2050 if current migration patterns continue, with the figure hitting 14 per cent continent-wide unless there are radical changes to Europe’s attitudes and policies towards mass migration.
Even in the unlikely case that all migration from outside the European Union suddenly and permanently ended, the new research on Europe’s rapidly shifting demographics found that by 2050 the Muslim population of the continent would hit 7.4 per cent, up from 4.9 per cent in 2016.
More likely is that levels of migration will continue as they have done for years, with so-called refugees and economic migrants arriving in European nations in large numbers. In the so-called high scenario described by Pew, Europe would be 14 per cent Muslim by 2050, a growth of 193 per cent.
Immigration trends have generally shown a propensity to be at, or even beyond, the ‘high’ projections established by migration observatories in the past, with cities like London becoming minority white British faster than thought. So-called ‘white flight’, as well as higher than anticipated levels of migration to Western European nations have contributed to these trends.
Pew reports some nations will display this trend of change more clearly than others, with Sweden expected to have the highest levels of Muslim settlement by 2050, at a projected 30.6 per cent. Sweden will be followed by fellow high migration nations Austria, Germany, and France, at between 18 and 19.9 per cent Muslim population.

The United Kingdom follows closely behind in projected growth, with a projected 17.2 per cent of residents in 2050 under the high projection predicted to be of the Muslim faith.
While Pew reports that mass migration will continue to be the main driver of these changes, that even the zero migration model shows continued growth reveals that other factors are at work. High birthrates among Muslim communities is one cause, as is the projected 160,000 European residents who will convert to Islam.
The growth is not universal, however, with some — predominantly Eastern European — nations avoiding a significant rise. Even under the high growth model, Poland’s Muslim population is only projected to hit 0.2 per cent by 2050.
Poland and other Eastern and Central European nations like Hungary have been pursuing a policy of rejecting forced migrant resettlement by the European Union. A recent poll of Polish citizens found that a majority would rather leave the European Union — continued membership of which remains widely popular in the country — than be forced to take Muslim migrants.

The next and final steps would follow and that is to elect our own governors of all the states within Aztlan."

What’s clear is that the producers are leaving the state and the takers are coming in. Many of the takers are illegal aliens, now estimated to number over 2.6 million. The Federation for American Immigration Reform estimates that California spends $22 billion on government services for illegal aliens, including welfare, education, Medicaid, and criminal justice system costs. Liberals claim they more than make that up with taxes paid, but that’s simply not true. It’s not even close. FAIR estimates illegal aliens in California contribute only $1.21 billion in tax revenue, which means they cost California $20.6 billion, or at least $1,800 per household.
Nonetheless, open border advocates, such as Facebook Chairman Mark Zuckerberg, claim illegal aliens are a net benefit to California with little evidence to support such an assertion. As the Center for Immigration Studies has documented, the vast majority of illegals are poor, uneducated, and with few skills. How does accepting millions of illegal aliens and then granting them access to dozens of welfare programs benefit California’s economy? If illegal aliens were contributing to the economy in any meaningful way, California, with its 2.6 million illegal aliens, would be booming.
Furthermore, the complexion of illegal aliens has changed with far more on welfare and committing crimes than those who entered the country in the 1980s. Heather Mac Donald of the Manhattan Institute has testified before a Congressional committee that in 2004, 95% of all outstanding warrants for murder in Los Angeles were for illegal aliens; in 2000, 23% of all Los Angeles County jail inmates were illegal aliens and that in 1995, 60% of Los Angeles’s largest street gang, the 18th Street gang, were illegal aliens. Granted, those statistics are old, but if you talk to any California law enforcement officer, they will tell you it’s much worse today. The problem is that the Brown administration will not release any statewide data on illegal alien crimes. That would be insensitive. And now that California has declared itself a “sanctuary state,” there is little doubt this sends a message south of the border that will further escalate illegal immigration into the state.

Indeed, California goes out of its way to attract illegal aliens. The state has even created government programs that cater exclusively to illegal aliens. For example, the State Department of Motor Vehicles has offices that only process driver licenses for illegal aliens. With over a million illegal aliens now driving in California, the state felt compelled to help them avoid the long lines the rest of us must endure at the DMV. And just recently, the state-funded University of California system announced it will spend $27 million on financial aid for illegal aliens. They’ve even taken out radio spots on stations all along the border, just to make sure other potential illegal border crossers hear about this program. I can’t afford college education for all my four sons, but my taxes will pay for illegals to get a college education.
