I visit the USA regularly as my partner is a yank..And you were the one spouting off about the Chinese beings the ones that are exploited...And still no answer to that in your usual uniformed ramblings.. The Chinese are not particularly beloved by me. Immigrant unskilled labourers of any nationality are exploited in the US, not just the Chinese who built the railroad, and they were most definitely exploited.I can assure you that when I ramble, I am certainly not in uniform. No one held a gun to their heads to emigrate to the USA they did that out of their own free choice. You just have an unhealthy downer on America. A typical trait of the lefty free loaders we have in the world today it's just the usual politics of envy and faux concerns for the under dogs.

You think it's unhealthy to mention anything unpleasant even if it is true? The world is not all unicorns and butterflies. We can't fix things that are wrong unless we first acknowledge that they are wrong. I am not by any means a lefty free loader, and my observations on this topic are supported by facts. Nor do I have a downer on America. I have plenty of good things to say about America. No country is all good or all bad.

Where were you when the coloureds in detroit lost their jobs because the chinese and the japs flooded the US markets with cheap crap cars?... You are just selective where you you aim your own faux concerns..

The US exported much of its manufacturing industry from the 70/ 80s. Trump is trying to get it back . I don’t see this being done soon and I don’t see it being done painlessly but the workers have twigged that the liberal elite hate them and have acted accordingly. The irony is that one might expect lefties to be trying to protect the blue collar worker but they have abandoned them . Instead the left is obsessed by net zero and assorted ‘ Marxist’ ideologies.

Of course the biggest exploiters of the Chinese is China I don't see you bitching about that.. Jonksy, I'm not really sure where you want this conversation to go. We were talking about immigrants, and now you're veering off into automotive industry issues which have more to do with imports than immigrants. As workers on the railroad, the Chinese were brought to the US, where they worked at hard labour jobs six days a week and were underpaid. That fact is a matter of public record. Detroit's woes, on the other hand, have to do with auto imports, not immigrants. In my mind, these are separate issues. And once again, I am no particular fan of China.

Funny that the UAW (United Auto Workers) Union endorsed Harris then. Did they? It didn't change the way auto workers voted did it? The unions in the USA are no different to the wankers we have here. They live off the backs of the the workforce..
