Trump Reverses Course--Resumes ICE Raids on Farms, Hotels

The New York Post reports that "ICE resumes raids on farms, hotels and restaurants after briefly telling agents to avoid them." The article states: "Homeland Security officials instructed agency leadership in a call Monday to resume raids at those businesses — which have higher proportions of illegal migrants in their workforce — following the days-long pause, according to the Washington Post and CNN."

According to the Department of Labor’s Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), the employment-population ratio declined by 0.3 percentage point to 59.7 percent in May. Per the article, "In other words, more people disappeared from the labor force altogether. This drop raises an important question: where did those workers go? The Washington Post asserted it was illegal immigrants taking advantage of the Trump administration's self-deportation program." Average hourly wages concurrently rose by 0.4 percent during May, to $36.24 in May, which the Washington Post also attributed to there being fewer illegal aliens in the workforce. 

Of course, if all the liberals and socialists that whine about illegals actually cared about poor people, they would be celebrating such an easy way to improve the lives of working class Americans. But they don't. Which reveals a lot about their personalities as well as their belief system.
