Replacement of American Workers by Foreigners Hits Extremes

 ZeroHedge: The Real Shocker In Friday's Jobs Report: 1.2 Million Native-Born Workers Lost Their Jobs, And Were Replaced With 668K Foreign-Born Workers

Meanwhile, the number of foreign-born workers (i.e., immigrants) surged by 668K to a record 30.396 million

About 156 million people are employed in the labor force. About 1 out of 5 are foreigners and this isn’t counting illegal aliens who might run into the tens of millions. The total swung by 1.8 million people last month alone, or more than 1 percent of the workforce.

If an invasion of foreigners was good for the country, USG should be running massive budget surpluses as foreigners build companies and pay taxes. The opposite is the case: data from the Center for Immigration Studies shows foreigners use welfare at far higher rates than natives. Cities such as New York, Chicago and Los Angeles are now having political meltdowns over experiencing a small fraction of what Texas, Arizona and other border states experienced for decades. Many of these states were already on the brink of bankruptcy. They do not have the resources to deal with the problem.

It also isn’t really a result of busing from border states so much as the waves of illegal aliens finally overwhelming the United States. There isn’t enough housing, there aren’t enough doctors, there aren’t enough schools, there’s nowhere near enough money for tens of millions of new welfare cases adding to the burden of a rapidly aging society already going into inflationary-collapse over entitlement spending. If natives are quitting or losing jobs and being replaced with cheaper foreigners, they all qualify for welfare. The country is moving backwards, rapidly into Third World status.

Very short-sighted and clueless people think this is good for the country. It’s going to end up being good like atomic cornflakes, margarine and mRNA vaxxes. Unlike many problems, this one won’t get cheaper after people realize what happened. The country will first experience massive economic hardship. Only then, when natives suddenly cannot find jobs or have to take huge pay cuts amid rising inflation, or see their welfare benefits cut as is already happening in cities such as Chicago, will they realize they’ve been hoodwinked. Then we spin the roulette wheel and find out what form the dictatorship takes and how long it lasts. Even if its democratic, the man who emerges from this mess will rule as FDR and Lincoln did. Political enemies will be jailed., either the current regime hanging on or a new regime punishing the current one. Immigration will probably go negative for a time and then hit a number close to zero, staying there for a century or more.

The U.S. has been in similar situations before, but it was never pushed to this extreme. Foreign born population was high enough to warrant a major reduction or even near total ban on immigration back in 2000. Policy has gone in an extremist direction since then. The three prior periods: heading in the 1770s, the 1850s and the 1920s. Two out of three sparked wars and the third came ahead of World War II. Nothing good is coming in the short-term.

Systemic Racism is Fake

If systemic racism was real, people wouldn't have to fake studies to prove it.

NYPost: Professor fired for ‘faking data to prove lynching makes whites want longer sentences for blacks,’ 6 studies retracted

Florida State University criminology professor Eric Stewart was a guru of the claim that “systemic racism” infests America’s police and American society.

Now he’s out of a job on account of “extreme negligence” in his research.

The academic was fired after almost 20 years of his data — including figures used in an explosive study, which claimed the legacy of lynchings made whites perceive blacks as criminals, and that the problem was worse among conservatives — were found to be in question.

Denmark's Identity Program in Focus

Quality immigration becoming a little more of a rare commodity every day, the key to success for Western countries will probably be like Denmark: being able to raise the birth rate, to accomplish the transition to modernity in a sustainable, to resolve the errors of past immigration policies, to propose a viable social model for active couples, to be able to preserve the identity and integrity of the population of origin.

Dominicans Cracking Down on Haitians Again

Guardian: US warns its ‘darker-skinned’ citizens of Dominican Republic’s migrant crackdown
US officials in the Dominican Republic are warning “darker-skinned” Americans they are at risk of being swept up in the country’s crackdown on Haitian migrants.

The advice from the US embassy in Santo Domingo suggests that authorities there are using a person’s appearance as a criteria for detention of those suspected of being in the country illegally.

The Dominican Republic says it has deported 43,900 migrants, mostly Haitians, between July and October in an operation it insists is necessary for national security amid growing unrest, gang crime and a fuel blockade inside its only neighbour on the island of Hispaniola.

This will eventually come to Europe. Probably not the United States because it isn't an ethnostate. The odds are near zero in the U.S., but they rise with the degree of collapse that unfolds. It is possible that all illegal immigrants are eventually deported if there's no amnesty.

China Growth is Over

The rapid growth that marked the past 40 years of Chinese history has ended.

ZH: Chinese Oil Demand Set For First Annual Drop In Over Three Decades

There was a question that used to be asked: will China grow old before it grows rich? Demographics are destiny and China's demographic deficit is starting to hit demand. 

Remember the commodities implosion of the 2010s? Everyone thought Chinese growth would ramp to the sky. Then copper and iron ore imploded when China didn't destroy its currency with mass printing of currency to fund infrastructure. 

Same story now, plus all the commodities bulls who are certain the Western countries will destroy their economies in pursuit of Green communism. A lack of Chinese growth alone could sink commodities, but if the Watermelon economy gets tossed along with the ruling class, it could be quite a drop for certain commodities.

Denmark Sending Migrants to Rwanda

It begins.

Denmark’s left-wing government will begin sending asylum seekers to Rwanda after groundbreaking agreement

Instead of migrants waiting in Denmark for their asylum request to be processed, the country’s left-wing government will now begin deporting them to Rwanda after the African country agreed to accept them in a bilateral agreement.

The plan, which has long been a goal of Denmark’s right-wing parties, took more than a year of negotiations, but the policy goal is now closer than ever to being realized. The deal does not apply to only Rwandan migrants — instead all asylum seekers would be forced to wait in Africa until their asylum procedure is finished. The fact that the plan is being implemented by a left-leaning government points to the strange circumstances in Denmark in which the left has embraced many of the anti-immigration polices of the right.

The strange circumstance where a mainstream party used their gray cells.

Anti-immgration is the winning issue. Not only are these migrants going to stay in Rwanda, but the rest of Europe will start making deals with other countries to take migrants. And then they'll move on to unassimilated foreigners, eventually coming to mean Muslims. It was done once before and it will be done again.

“Every fifth young man with a non-Western background born in 1997 had broken the law before turning 21. It’s not everyone. But there are too many young men who take the freedom of others, steal children’s futures, intimidate prison guards – and leave behind a long trail of insecurity,” said the Danish prime minister.

“It has been going on for too many years. Girls who are called derogatory names because they are Danish. Or girls who are subjected to social control because they have become too Danish. A sausage cart in Brønshøj that is attacked with firecrackers because it sells pork,” she said.

She sounds a lot like Trump, no? The next decade is going to really suck for globalists and mentally ill people. If you want to know why the ruling class of America, and the West more generally, floods the country with illegal aliens, sends children to die in pointless wars, sends billions to Ukraine while people are homeless at home, why illegal aliens are given free transportation and never had any covid restrictions, why people are willing to destroy the health and wealth of a nation in pursuit of fake climate science, look no further than this image of loyalty:
The "right" is most loyal to its family, friends, nation. Loyalty moves out from the family. The "left" is loyal to foreigners, even enemies of the tribe in the extreme. The warmongers on the right are no less "left" than the nominal left because they are expressing a part of the same twisted ideology. No one with loyalty to their own people would waste so much blood and treasure on foreign wars, nor oppose common sense economic policies that help their citizens. That Denmarks "left" embraces common sense loyalty to its own people is the shocking thing in Europe? No, what's shocking is that Denmark joins a handful of governments in the West that place their own citizens first.

The American ruling class' attempt at labeling January 6 protesters as traitors is going to be one of the all-time backfires if a right-wing politician who understands that picture above wins. It is trivial to flip the entire authoritarian police state against the people who have the inverted loyalty because they observably behave like traitors by tearing down statues, defaming the nation's heroes, support foreign governments and illegal aliens and so on. It's also expressed by the research showing white leftists are now anti-white bigots and that trend has strengthened over time.

If America goes, then Europe will go down like dominoes almost instantly because look at Denmark. It's already happening. The playbook is right there in the open, but we do live in authoritarian times. Why do you think the DoJ and FBI are raiding dozens of Trump officials and supporters? There is nothing stopping whatever party or movement grabs ahold of the immigration issue. 

This isn't a traditional left-right issue, it is the globalist-nationalist dividing line. If you support local control and helping people locally, you are now "far right" aka nationalist and if you support sending money and effort as far away as possible, you are "far left."

Back to Europe, the icing out of the nationalist Sweden Democrats failed: The astonishing rise of the right-wing Sweden Democrats

But as vote-counting progressed, the right-wing bloc consisting of the Liberals, Christian Democrats, Moderates and Sweden Democrats now seems on track to win, currently with 49.7% of the vote.

While final results aren’t expected before Wednesday, Social Democrats have so far received the largest percentage of votes, 30.5%.

But currently, the Sweden Democrats are the second-strongest party, gaining 20.6% of the vote in their best-ever election performance. That makes them the biggest party on the right, in front of the Moderates who came as a close third with 19.1%.

Anti-immigration is common sense in an age where the ruling class is implementing extremist migration policies that exterminate the local culture and destroy local sovereignty. It is actually one of the definitions of genocide, and some people who talk about Tibet and Xinjiang in China do call the mass migration of Han Chinese into these areas as a kind of genocide because they realize its designed to crush local power. Yet when it is being done at an even greater scale in the West...it's only a matter of time before someone even more radical than Trump comes along to flip the table for good. And if he's an authoritarian, the idiots in the ruling class have build him the power structure he can use to eliminate their power with both shocking rapidity and shocking popularity.

Collapsing Fertility Might Hint at Collapsing Financial Markets

Is fertility crashing because of mRNA shots or because of an unfolding economic depression? I haven't seen clear evidence because I haven't seen economic-adjusted fertility data. If you accept that an economic collapse is possible, then fertility numbers aren't crazy. They seem unexplained because the collapse in the economy and financial markets happens after fertility begins falling. If fertility is tied to the economy and not the mRNA shots, it's forecasting something as bad or worse than the 1930s Great Depression.
If you're familiar with the mRNA skeptics, you have seen the falling fertility data. Alex Berenson will be posting a new article on the topic soon. For myself, I remain skeptical. Not because I have a dog in the fight, but because I'm familiar with the existing explanation for falling fertility rates. 

Socionomics Institute: Stocks & Sex: Revisited

This correlation means that trends in conceptions significantly precede expansions and contractions in the economy, which lag the a-d line, usually by years. Most noticeably, the lows in procreation coincide with stock market lows, not economic lows, which follow shortly thereafter.
Is Fertility a Leading Indicator?
In a new paper at The Economic Journal, Steve Lugauer, along with Kasey Buckles `00 and Daniel Hungerman of the University of Notre Dame, use data on more than 100 million births in the United States to examine whether fertility behavior anticipates economic recessions. They find strong evidence that the growth rate of conceptions declines very rapidly at the beginning of economic downturns and the decline starts several quarters before recessions begin. In other words, fertility is a leading economic indicator.
Socionomic theory posits that financial markets are expressions of social mood. Rising markets reflect optimism or positive mood and declining markets pessimism or negative mood. A key point: mood generates news, not vice versa. Socionomic theory doesn't say falling stocks make people feel negatively, it's that depressed people sell their stocks or don't invest. Similarly, depressed people will not bring children into the world.

The data is very supportive of mood driving society. Fertility doesn't start falling after the economy goes into recession. It starts falling before, sometimes years before. Mood doesn't affect everyone in the same way, but most people are affected by mood.

What's concerning about the current drop is that it is ongoing. It would make sense for a V-shaped drop in fertility that lines up with the pandemic. It doesn't look like that is happening. Fertility is still falling a full year later. The mRNA not-vaxxes are an obvious candidate because fertility falls as they're rolled out, but this raises the question of temporary or lasting impact? Both are possible. The other explanation, social mood followed by visible signs in the stock market and economy, cannot be ruled out.

Consider that national leaders are also driven by mood. What makes a President threaten to use F-15s on citizens? What makes the government and people clamor for potentially nuclear wars with Russia and China? 

I've chronicled why I think the entire stock market boom was Federal Reserve "manipulated." I don't think they intentionally drove it higher, but I saw a very clear gap between social mood indicators and stock prices developing into the mid-2010s. Signs of extreme negative mood include transgenderism and the horror genre. The U.S. is experiencing extremes in transgenderism that might only have a parallel in Weimar Germany. The horror genre in movies has been strong for two decades now and even crossed into pop music:

Socionomics Alert: Terror Pop

Socionomics Alert: Stock Market Peaks Amid Record Horror Haul

Socionomics predicts rising and peak social mood produce heroes and a clear separation between good and evil. Falling and negative mood produce anti-heroes and ambiguity. The 1970s saw heroes such as Dirty Harry and Paul Kersey (from Death Wish, notably being remade with Bruce Willis in 2017). Dirty Harry gunned down criminal to the cheers of audiences and Paul Kersey carried out vigilante killings. Rambo was a hero who ran afoul of the law. In the 1980s, the good-guys are within the law. Rambo works for the government. Many heroes are fighting communists. At the peak of social mood, the superhero was reborn with characters such as Spiderman. This quickly turned dark in the 2000s. Dexter was a serial killer anti-hero. FOX currently has a show called Lucifer with Satan as the main character.

Horror movies also rise and fall with these trends. Freddy and Jason, two of the more famous horror movie characters, were both created in the late 1970s and peaked in the early 1980s. Horror was a less popular genre in the mid-1980s through the peak in social mood at the end of the Millennium. Since then, horror has steadily grown its box office receipts. It also turned gruesome with movies such as Saw and Hostel, what some critics describe as "torture porn."

And now amid a new high in stocks, horror is at a new peak too.

That was written in 2017, the market peaked about three months later and then more QE...and yet more extreme social division, negative mood, still rising trends such as transgenderism. Going solely by mood, the S&P 500 Index should be sub-2000 if not sub-1000. I concluded that post:
Horror movies peaked in the late 1970s and early 1980s amid recession and a low in stocks. It comes back for a one-year blast in 1987, the year global stock markets plunged 20 percent or more in a single day. Horror doesn't return until the late 1990s and hits a short-term peak in the year 2000. After that, it grows into a larger and larger genre with a growing list of subcategories, before hitting a new record in 2017.

The implications for financial markets would be bullish if stocks were making new lows, since it would give a coincident indicator of a bottom in negative mood. Instead, this peak looks like it could be a larger version of the 2000s peak, a burst of horror at a peak as mood turns. If that's that case, the next downturn in mood, the next political shift, is going to a lot more like the 1920s or 1850s than the 1970s.

The existing explanation for plunging fertility is negative mood. Mood leads the markets. If the stock market crashes in the next few months, if the economy sinks into the worst recession in the past 40 years, maybe the past 90 years, then the drop in fertility is not only wholly explained by negative mood, but is actually a flashing neon sign screaming "Sell Now!"

I'm not invested in this explanation. The timing lines up with the mRNA shot rollouts. It being a side-effect would confirm my belief that the shots are worse than covid itself. 

The point I'm trying to get across: let's say the shots harm fertility. It could be temporary, permanent, it could be a major crisis or a minor one. Whatever the data is showing you and making you think about the vaccines, translate that into the economy and the financial markets.  If it's a minor crisis that reverses over time, the markets may dip and then recover over time. If the drop in fertility is off the charts and if the vaxxes aren't the explanation, it's telling me that financial markets might collapse off the charts. If you can't rule out a social mood and by extension economic explanation, then you had better be on high alert in the financial markets.

More on Fertility

The vaxx is a possible explanation, but don't discount that fertility could be signaling a collapse in social mood and the economy. Look at those collapses in the 1930s and 1970s and consider the worse demographics in developed nations along with anti-natalist culture.

Fertility Crash: Negative Mood, the Vaxx or Both?

Two tweets I saw passed around thsi weekend looked at Germany's and the Netherlands' drop in fertility.
Unless there is a vaxx and unvaxxed control group, the drop could be mainly driven by social mood. If mood is driving it, the drop will accelerate around August or September (mapping to the stock market peak rather than vaccinations) and continue sliding for at least six months.

Here are the Germany and Netherlands country ETFs. They peakedin May and August 2021, respectively.

Systemic Racism is Diversity

MIT, Harvard scientists find AI can recognize race from X-rays — and nobody knows how
A doctor can’t tell if somebody is Black, Asian, or white, just by looking at their X-rays. But a computer can, according to a surprising new paper by an international team of scientists, including researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Harvard Medical School.

The study found that an artificial intelligence program trained to read X-rays and CT scans could predict a person’s race with 90 percent accuracy. But the scientists who conducted the study say they have no idea how the computer figures it out.

“When my graduate students showed me some of the results that were in this paper, I actually thought it must be a mistake,” said Marzyeh Ghassemi, an MIT assistant professor of electrical engineering and computer science, and coauthor of the paper, which was published Wednesday in the medical journal The Lancet Digital Health. “I honestly thought my students were crazy when they told me.”

Almost every discovery is in the direction of destroying the concept of the Blank Slate. Systemic racism is a lie. There's no pernicious system of hatred or discrimination. At worst, there is a natural sorting under liberty. Which comports with what is an increasingly authoritarian and totalitarian system when it comes to race. That is to say, what do we do if the public cannot handle diversity?

As genetic science and AI discovers more innate human differences that explain away most of the "racism" in the world, it looks more and more like the people who cannot handle diversity are the very people promoting it. That the best solution might be taking all the people who complain about diversity and racism and putting them into homogenous societies. Both the people who are racist and hate diversity and all the people who are anti-racist and promote diversity, would be better off in a homogenous polity. The people who can handle diversity are the ones who can see race/sex/ethnic disparities and, finding no clear evidence of discrimination, can accept that differences exist.

If people can't handle the differences, then they can't handle diversity and need to live in a homogenous society. That has been the solution for all of human history. My hunch is that if we sorted the population this way, the number of people who want to live in the diverse society would fit into a few cities and they would probably be very similar in other ways, such as being highly gifted in intelligence, wealth, athletics, and so on. Another form of tribe forming along a different human characteristic.

From seeing social media and public discussion, many supposedly intelligent people can't consistently separate groups from individuals. Practically speaking, I'm not sure that diversity is possible at scale. The USA seemed stable up until the white population fell below 80 percent. As it heads towards 60 percent, the accusations of racism are ramping up because the white majority, soon to be plurality (or not depending on if the Hispanic category survives) is losing power. Increased diversity isn't creating a utopia. Combined with institutionalized racism via affirmative action, civil rights laws and assumed white guilt, increased diversity is providing cover for anti-white racism. The only way out for the USA as it currently exists as a political union is a rebirth of Christianity. If the country doesn't turn back to God, then it will break apart formally or informally.

Waking Up From the Racism Psyop

WashFreeBeacon: Yes, the Media Bury the Race of Murderers—If They’re Not White
Frank James, the man arrested for Tuesday's New York City subway shooting, is a black nationalist and outspoken racist who railed against whites, Jews, and Hispanics. A careful reader of the New York Times could be forgiven for overlooking that. In a nearly 2,000-word article on the attack, James's race is not mentioned. The same is true for the coverage offered up by Reuters; the Washington Post only mentioned James's race in relation to his condemnation of training programs for "low-income Black youths."
There is video of James saying that whites and blacks should not even live in the same hemispehre. This isn't some one off example. If you believe that racism is a problem in America, you have been pysopped. The data from the Free Beacon shows what any red-pilled media consumer already knows. White shooters have their race mentioned up front. The media hypes the story endlessly. They tie the shooting to broader political movements such as Trump voters, right-wingers. When the opposite occurs, the media quickly drops the story. Notice the subway shooter story is already quickly fading?
I didn't think it was possible, but the media became even more racist after the Floyd incident:
American media outlets such as the NYTimes are arguably responsible for the subway shooting because they are the ones creating this myth of racism in the country, which appears as a motivation for the shooting. If you follow the logic used when it's a white shooter, we should be taking the NYTimes and all major media outlets apart with FBI investigations, DOJ lawsuits, deplatforming from banks, social media, banning NYTimes employees from using Airbnb and so on and so forth. A funny thing will happen: race relations in America will greatly improve.

Elon Musk is Tying to Decolonize Twitter

The world is so inverted that racist, anti-Western Indians and Chinese colonize American institutions, use them to punish Americans who had nothing to do with past colonization, and justify it by a moral appeal to prior colonization...without ever realizing they have now inverted their moral standing. All the anti-white and anti-American propaganda can be tolerated when it is seemingly coming from whites and guilt-ridden Westerners. One may disagree, but it seems authentic. Indians and Chinese are clearly not white though, and many of them harbor legitimately racist ideas about their own ethnic and religious superiority. When the same words and ideas that were tolerated before come out of their mouths, the jig is up. They out themselves as invaders and colonists.

One cannot immigrate to a foreign country and credibly claim to be a member of that society, while harboring such bigoted ideas and openly proclaiming them. It would never even cross my mind to speak about a foreign country in the way these people do, while being in that country as a tourist, let alone an immigrant. To move there would be to tacitly accept the culture and way of life, or at least be tolerant of it.

If you fully understand this dichotomy, then you can understand why banning things like CRT, and talk of white privilege and systemic racism is crucial to preventing a social disaster. The country is racially oppressing a majority of the population, they are persecuting the younger generation, and in another 10 years or so it will be impossible to stop what follows. The Baizuo will die off and be replaced by openly racist Indians, Chinese and so forth. A generation of now-adult whites will realize they've been racially persecuted their entire lives by foreign racists. Minority groups such as blacks and Hispanics are either already racist against these groups, or resent them for their relative wealth and power within the ranks of the Democrats. There are already fights between blacks and Hispanics and Asians over school budgets and policy in diverse states such as California. The toxic mentality described by Wax in these videos is running wild because Baizuo have created this "safe space" for extreme racism and bigotry as long as it is anti-white.

Whether you agree or not, the fact that this is starting to be openly talked about is a sign of what is coming. We are living in the peak Baizuo moment. People openly spouting bigotry against the majority population and claiming moral justification for it, on the assumption the population will never lift a finger against them, are in for a shock. They will be doubly and triple shocked when both their pro-American co-ethnics and their ancestral governments side against them too.

Will Baizuo Admin Unleash Murder and Mayhem Ahead of Midterms?

Axios: Biden officials fear "mass migration event" if COVID policies end
U.S. intelligence officials are privately bracing for a massive influx of more than 170,000 migrants at the Mexico border if COVID-era policies that allow instant expulsions during the public health emergency are ended, sources with direct knowledge of the discussions tell Axios.
Drug traffickers, sex traffickers, terrorists, hitmen, "criminal tourists," and assorted menagerie of economic and opportunistic welfare migrants are all waiting to pour across the border.

Immigration was the key issue heading into 2016. Nothing I discussed in 2014, when I saw the potential for Trump entering and winning the Republican nomination for President has been solved: Immigration Issue Set to Explode in America; Prepare for Political Volatility. Instead, the ruling class has gone in the opposite direction, making it abundantly clear to anyone who pays attention that they do not care one iota for the American people. God only knows what it coming because there isn't much on the scene with Trump still hanging over the party.

Trade of the Decade: Long Nikkei, Short Yen

Long Nikkei, short yen. Not a go out tomorrow and buy trade because Nikkei will track south with global indexes. The yen leg of the trade also looks extended here. In 10 years time however, these will look like rounding errors if the trade works. This was a trade people thought about putting on a decade ago, but it's time may have finally arrived.
Will Japan wither away in the Age of Automation or be reborn as the export powerhouse>? It is one of the few nations that could credibly become the Global Hegemon if AI and robotics dominate warfare. China's 1 billion people is no advantage on 100 million Japanese, nor is 400 million Americans. All that matters is the technological edge. The transtion period will be expensive though. Japan is a commodity importer, it has a massive debt/GDP ratio and terrible demographics. Its exit from the malaise will hammer the currency.

American Regime Change is Coming

Even a regime institution, Wharton, is showing that deporting all illegal immigrants (and legal ones on welfare) is the right policy.

Immigration and America’s Aging ‘Time Bomb’

“We find that, after an initial period, increasing legal immigration improves both the government’s fiscal balance and the economy on a per-capita basis,” the paper stated. “Legalization policies [or regularizing undocumented immigrants], on the other hand, worsen the government’s fiscal balance due to increased spending, while having modest effects on the economy broadly.” Lawful immigrants receive government transfers over their lifetime such as Social Security benefits, Medicaid, and the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP); if they are not sufficiently productive, they create a “retirement benefits imbalance,” the paper pointed out.
This is common sense. This is data that is publicly available and has been for a decade or more. They don't go into the weeds in this study above, but the Center for Immigration Studies has. See more at: Immigration: The Key Political Issue


Nearly all immigrants broken down by ethnic group and race, use more welfare than natives. Ninety-percent of legal Hispanic immigrants are on welfare. The reality is very few immigrants are actually "adding" the economy such that it improves the lives of native citizens because to do that, they must produce so much economic output that it more than makes up for costs such as higher housing prices.

The policy implications are clear. America should all but close the door on immigration for decades at least. It should deport all illegal aliens and all legal aliens on welfare. Many "citizens" likely forged immigration documents (including Congressperson Omar), have committed crimes or engaged in anti-American activities that should see them stripped of citizenship and deported. This type of policy is coming because the alternative is the nation falls apart. Forced assimilation is coming one way or another, either because the nation breaks into more ethnically homogenous states or because the national zeitgeist does a 180 degree turn. Even in the Ivy League heart of Baizuodom, institutions are starting to give air to the reality of the situation.

All that's needed is a final breaking of narrative control. Hence the totalitarian impulse by the Baizuo. They are terrified of open debate because they are so far on the extreme with their open borders policy, they are literally making open warfare upon the American people (throughout history, when a huge wave of people suddenly show up in someone else's land, it ends with bloodshed and destruction of the native peoples or the invaders). Any open discussion of the immigration issue will end with the Baizuo removed from power solely on this issue. It is their Achilles' heel. Immigration is what put Trump in office. It will put him back again should he run on the issue, and it is the issue that will ultimately bring down the ruling class because they're normalizing talk of treason and traitors now. That's the word that will be used to describe politicians and NGOs that facilitated the mass invasion of the USA.

China's Shrinking Provinces, Population Growth Slumps to 1978 Level

Some provinces are shrinking as population leaves, others have negative birth-death ratios.
iFeng: 15省份人口数据出炉:河南44年来出生人口首次跌破80万
Among the 15 provinces, Zhejiang, Guangdong, and Hubei are among the top three in terms of population growth; 12 provinces have announced the birth population data in 2021. Guangdong is the only province with a birth population exceeding one million, while Henan, the most populous province The birth population has fallen below 800,000 for the first time since 1978.
Hubei was hammered by the SARS2 lockdown:
Hubei's resident population from the central region ranks third in increments, reaching 547,000. In terms of natural population growth, Hubei will have 404,000 births in 2021, with a birth rate of 6.98‰; the natural population growth rate will be -0.88‰. According to the "Hubei Statistical Yearbook 2021" (the statistical yearbook has released the birth population data since 1985), a reporter from China Business News found that this is also the first time that the natural growth rate of the permanent population in Hubei has turned negative in decades. Based on this calculation, in 2021, Hubei's natural population growth will decrease by about 51,100 people, while the mechanical population growth, that is, the net inflow from outside the province, will increase by 655,000 people. It is worth noting that, judging from the changes in the permanent population of Hubei since 2011, from 2011 to 2019, the permanent population of Hubei has been increasing, but in 2020, it decreased by 1.517 million compared with 2019, and increased by 0.547 million in 2021.

In the opinion of experts, such a large change is closely related to the epidemic. Niu Fengrui, a researcher at the Urban Development and Environment Research Center of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, told Yicai.com that the magnitude of Hubei's population changes is related to special external factors and accidental factors. That is to say, due to the impact of the epidemic in 2020, some people will be outside and not included in the statistics; by 2021, when the economy and society fully recover, these people will come back.

America Is Going Insane

This is not a sane country. From BLM to the pandemic lockdowns that included banning essential medicines to now Ukraine. You can see all sides are capable of believing insane bullshit.

ZH: The Overton Window Is Being Shoved Toward Warmongering Extremism

Instead of tackling simple problems head on, the nation collapses through an endless swirl of retarded ideas or propagandized threats. How can this end? It will only end with dictatorship or something approaching dictatorship, such as the mob rule that sometimes reared its ugly head during the American Revolution. Or it will collapse in every way imaginable, be it currency collapse, cities burned to the ground, political fragmentation into multiple nations. This could happen if the USA "wins" its global empire after defeating Russia and China, or it could come as part of losing the war. 

Either way, nothing good is coming. There is no one on the political scene with the strength of character and force of personality to resist the propaganda machine. Social mood is collapsing and if it's not missiles flying at Russia and China (and into the USA), it'll be bullets, knives, bricks and Molotov cocktails flying between American citizens.

Illegal Alien Wages Collapse Under Open Borders

Increase supply and lower the price? Who'd have thunk it? Mass migration is now so out of control that even illegal aliens are seeing their wages collapse or are simply not being paid at all, because the person hiring them can find a new sucker the next day! And this isn't happening at the border where migration is always relatively high, but in far away places such as hipster neighborhoods in New York City.

This is not satire: Hipster would-be socialists are exploiting workers, thanks to Biden’s border disaster

On February 28, NBC News ran a piece captioned “Undocumented day laborers face harsh work prospects due to immigration spike”. As hard as it is to believe, neither the headline nor the video itself is satire.

The primary focus is on workers at the corner of Division and Marcy Avenues in the Williamsburg section of Brooklyn, known as La Parada, or “the stop”. The voiceover explains, “This is a place where immigrant women find a job for the day, primarily doing domestic work. Every day, up to 150 women wait here, bargaining for hourly pay that is often below minimum wage”.

Why, exactly, would workers bargain for pay that falls below the state and/or federal minimum? The video continues: “Often, these day laborers are undocumented”.

Here’s the problem, according to NBC News: “With more women looking for work, there is more competition. Desperate to find a job and with little to no English, many new arrivals don’t negotiate their rate.”

Increase supply and prices go down. This is basic economics. There is only one type of immigrant who immediately improves the economy: the super producer. The entrepreneur, the inventor, the business founder. Not someone who runs a convenience store or a restaurant, but a business that creates substantial new wealth. Productive people don't subtract from the economy and their children may become more productive, but they aren't making the average person better off unless there's a labor shortage, in which case adding labor can have an immediate positive impact. Less productive migrants are net negatives. They produce more GDP because they purchase basic necessities, but that money flows to corporations and the wealthy. They consume more welfare than they pay in taxes, sometimes substantially more. It adds more debt (inflation) into the economy and makes the average citizen worse off, the average worker far worse off because their effect on labor prices pulls everyone's wages down. Moreover, we can't ignore the raw numbers of immigrants. There aren't enough productive immigrants to cause problems such as overcrowding in schools. Low/no skill mass migration is the main driver of negative outcomes for ordinary Americans.

A high minimum wage is a terrible idea because many of these migrants can't produce enough economic output at a $15 minimum wage. What will happen is mass unemployment that drives up welfare costs, coupled with a large black market for sub-$15 an hour labor. The low living standards of American "minimum wage" workers was caused by three factors: feminism, mass immigration and offshoring. The first and third of those are over. Female labor force participation peaked already. Offshoring peaked. A growing desire for onshoring will reverse that trend soon enough, if wars and soaring transportation costs don't do it first. The last factor is more extreme than ever: open borders.

If you are not familiar with New York City or Williamsburg in particular, the neighborhood is rated as number one among “The 10 Most Hipster Neighborhoods on Earth” on Thrillist.

According to that outlet: “If hipsters have a mecca, it's most certainly Williamsburg. A world of bow ties, trilby hats, and suede chukka boots, where everyone's an amateur photographer with an unnecessarily expensive DSLR camera.”

Williamsburg is also extremely “progressive”, a blue enclave in a sea of blue in an area polling outfit FiveThirtyEight refers to as “The Elite Circles” (along with lower Manhattan), “the most progressive slice of the city”.

I trust that commuters are not traveling into La Parada from the more conservative environs (like Staten and Long Islands) looking for domestic help, so most of the would-be employers there are likely Williamsburg locals. It appears, then, that hipster would-be socialists are busy dickering for the cheapest, below-minimum wage workers whom they may or may not end up paying — a fact that speaks volumes.

Baizuo love to scream about $15 minimum wage, but I'm willing to bet the minimum wage in New York City could approach $20 an hour without mass immigration. Close the border and deport the illegal aliens, and watch wages soar. Imagine a person violently and gleefully stabbing a knife into the back of the American worker over and over while alternatively screaming "racist" at the worker and "Fight for $15" and you understand the mind of the modern Baizuo.

Putin Explains How Modern Ukraine Was a Soviet Invention

The Obama-Biden regime has destroyed Ukraine. The puppet government installed via coup in 2014 has severed the nation in two with its aggressive anti-Russia policies. Congratulations. Any futher destruction that falls upon the rump Ukraine is wholly the responsibility of the Obama-Biden regime and its puppets in Ukraine.

President Putin spoke to the Russian people on Monday evening. This is tweetstorm translating it:

"historically, the inhabitants of the south-western regions have called themselves 'russian' and 'orthodox'. we think this is self-evident."

"modern ukraine was completely and utterly created by the bolsheviks. this process began immediately after the revolution of 1917. lenin and his comrades did this in a manner which was very rough on russia proper, by cutting off a historical part of its territory."

he's elaborating on stalin & khruschev cutting off parts of russia, creating "soviet ukraine".

putin elaborating on the bolsheviks compromising with ukrainian nationalists to create the chimera of "ukraine". nothing you haven't heard on our episode on ukrainian history!

"why did the communists make such generous presents to the minority nationalists? this makes no sense, it is insane. but there is an explanation: after the revolution, the main goal of the bolsheviks was to stay in power by any means necessary."

"the leninist principles of nation-building weren't just a mistake, they were 'worse than a mistake'. this became extremely obvious in 1991."

"we cannot change the past, but we have to speak about it openly and honestly."

"ukraine was completely built and created by lenin. he was its architect, including his orders on including donbass in the ukrainian soviet republic by force."

"now the ukrainians destroy lenin monuments and want decommunization. you want decommunization? we can show you what REAL DECOMMUNIZATION means in ukraine."
