If you’re ever tempted to declare that you are on
strike from your family and that they will just have to suffer through a day
without your presence, you’d better think twice. Your family may very well take
a cool trip somewhere without you and in the future be able to bring up the
pleasant experience and preface the memory with something like “Remember that fun
day when Dad was on strike and we took that cool trip to the railway station and
had a wonderful lunch without him?”
Well, evidently immigrants in America are not so
circumspect and are behaving rather too boldly, because they are officially
taking a day off from serving us evil American citizens, and they think that
this will teach us devils to appreciate, perhaps even adore, the immigrants in
this country for the essential services they provide, with special attention given
to the illegal aliens living here.
What a load of crap! When the people who occupy the
lowest rung on the economic ladder think they’ll punish us with their absence,
I see only disappointment ahead for them. What kind of idiocy would make people
who often speak English haltingly and poorly think that they can hold us hostage
to their presence, or lack of presence? Usually people who are new to a nation
and are trying to establish themselves by buying a home, raising a family, getting
a good job, increasing their standard of living and hopefully becoming wealthy
one day, will work hard and diligently to improve their lives and convince
possible future employers that they are serious and hard-working and will perform
work dependably.
But here go the newest and most needy members of our
society, not showing up for work, in an attempt to show us how dependent on
them we are, and how much we need them. And I say “Bullshit”.
My day is going fine, thank you. I have not been
stupid enough to make my life dependent on a bunch of immigrants who work at
the lowest wage and benefit levels and who could at a whim deprive me of the
things I need and want in my life. The more these fools strike and withhold
service, for work that we have been repeatedly told “no American will do”, they
more they’ll find out that we can do without them and their low skills, and that
there are many Americans who will indeed do the work immigrants are too haughty
to perform.
Liberals who organize and encourage such behavior as
this strike only add to the resentment that Americans feel toward our uppity
immigrants who believe they have a constitutional and God-given right to be
here and live off of our generous nation and its willingness to help the needy
and the newcomers. This kind of demonstration is why Americans voted for
President Donald Trump and not the socialist Hillary, who is probably behind
this misguided affront to Americans. This is not helpful.
