There are 8 billion people in the world.
.01% of that is 80 million people.
Our historical job creation since 1970 shows we have never created more than 4 million jobs per year with the exception of the corona scam where we regained some of the jobs lost the previous year.
And it proves that for the most part, we create less than 2 million jobs per year.
Now Elon says infinite job creation is possible.
If that were true, there are so many unemployed and underemployed Americans, we would see that in our historical job growth.
Yet we don’t see it.
Why is that?
And for those 80 million guest workers he wants to import, for them to have jobs when we create so few jobs, 80 million Americans would lose their jobs.
I picked the year 1970 to start with because sometime in the 70’s, our businesses began shipping our jobs offshore.
And in 1990 the H-1B scam where we started importing guest workers to force Americans out of jobs began.
There was once a fictional piece going around that said for every H-1B worker we imported, they would create 1.92 new jobs.
Do you see that happening anywhere in the chart above?
Now to be fair with Elon, he might have meant .01% of 1 % which would be 8 million jobs.
Still, we do not create enough jobs for our own high school graduates.
And if we let him do that, I can guarantee you that at least another 99 of his fellow billionaires will want to import their own .01% of 1 %.
Which brings us right back to 80 million nonimmigrant guest workers being the goal, at a minimum.
