Do people buy insurance to help them in their time of need?
Why do our students go to school?
Why do 22 veterans a day commit suicide?
Three totally separate questions, but all three are deeply related.
Recently Brian Thompson was murdered.
He was the CEO of United Healthcare.
This was terrible no matter how you look at it, and the murderer should be tried and prosecuted according to our laws.
But how and why did it happen?
The details are still being sorted out but the theory seems to be that he had his healthcare claim denied.
If people pay healthcare to protect them in their time of need, who do they turn to when a corporation denies them in their time of need?
This is a volcano that has been simmering for sometime, and my thought is if you leave people with no options and back them into a corner, what will they do?
I ask this question because there is a bigger volcano that is ready to explode on a much larger scale.
Our corporate executives have been sending our best paying jobs offshore.
It started with the lie that they would find similar or better paying jobs.
This has been happening since at least the mid 70’s and it has destroyed once bright futures, and many communities.
Starting earnestly in 1990 these same corporate excecutives have been importing nonimmigrant guest workers to take our remaining best paying jobs.
Once again this is destroying once bright futures and leaving our citizens nowhere to turn, and many of our once thriving communities in ruin.
Many of us who have endured this have gave up ever working for corporate america again, and have sought safe harbor in government jobs.
Problem is, these government jobs, whether they be state or federal are now hiring the same imported guest workers.
And after decades of attempting to let every contact I could find at the Department of Labor and Department of Veterans Affairs know, I can assure you that nobody is home.
They are clueless, but when the average person working at unemployment offices across the country make around $30,000 per year, do we really think they can understand what skills are necessary to make six figures per year in the technology industry?
Like most I used to think this was only happening in the technology industry, but after 20 years of studying this, I realize it is all jobs in America and it can best be shown via this chart.
If you look at the number of jobs we created over the previous year, and then compare it to the number of visas issued, you realize that we have many more workers than we do jobs.
If you break down the visa totals into actual visa types, we see that the B-1 visas have the largest numbers.
I have had people say you can’t use those B-1 visa totals because they are not allowed to be used for work.
When I inform them that Infosys has been fined for using the B-1 visas for work, they then say well that is only a small percentage, which could very well be true.
Or it could be totally false if enough whistleblowers come forward.
We may never know the answer to that.
To move past that question, I decided to add our high school graduates as they will need work once they graduate from high school.
As you can see by the chart, in most years, we had more high school graduates than we created jobs for.
At this point a large quantity of people will say that is because they don’t want to work.
But if their experience is anything like mine, they are not finding jobs, and once again, this is because we import many times the number of guest workers compared to the number of jobs we create.
Somebody is getting forced out of the work force and since it isn’t the imported guest workers, it is the american citizen.
And trust me, nobody in the media or government is listening.
The picture above is a summary of a monthly total for foreign born employed and native born employed that shows who is getting the most jobs created since Jan 2007 when these totals first started.
If you look at the green row, you see that Foreign Born Employed has gone up by .037 and that Native Born Employed has gone down by .037.
This is an exact one for one match, and it repeats every month.
What is not so obvious is that Foreign Born Workers are only 19.2% of the workforce whereas Native Born Workers are 80.8% of the workforce.
Yet Foreign Born Workers have received 52.2% of all new jobs created since Jan 2007 with Native Born Workers receiving 44.4% of these new jobs.
Is it any wonder we are not finding jobs?
Hell, President Trump is preparing to staple green cards to their diplomas if they graduate college.
And Stephen Miller has gone silent.
And Elon Musk is telling the guest workers that he will move heaven and earth to get them here.
And he doesn’t seem to care if Americans get forced out or not.
And still the media plays the hypocrite about the shooter.
And our politicians like elizabeth warren and AOC play the other side and hint that the people have nowhere to turn.
And we watch as that smaller volcano erupts.
While we sit on top of a much bigger volcano that is heating up.
22 veterans a day is something that should not be happening.
But it is.
During President Trump’s first time in office, I wrote him a letter stating that I believe many of these suicides may be because of the economic problems I’m describing here.
He must have read it because about six months later I get pulled into the office at the local VA hospital and asked if I am suicidal.
That is how tone death management is all the way up and all the way back down the line.
Here I am trying to describe what is happening.
And there response is, there must be something wrong with you.
This is why the problem will continue to grow until somebody else gives up and targets another corporate executive, which I hope will never happen.
While some politician shifts the blame to the same corporate executive rather than admitting that they might be the problem.
And that their actions are enabling all of this nightmare.
