2 I don't know about the rest of y'all, but I've always heard of how well those Haitians work. I mean , just look at the utopia that Haiti is today.

3 There is an established, long-standing immigration legal process. I would suggest Gov. DeWine encourage Haitians and others to use it.

5 Springfield mayor Rob Rue would stand to lose money if the apartments he’s been renting to Haitians became vacant. Ditto for the other “connected” landlords in Clark County, longtime poster child for the Rust Belt

6 In 2022, I refused to sign DeWine re-election petition in a room full of GOP diehards. They deescalated the situation as quickly as possible. His COVID nursing home policy was the same as New York’s. I undervoted the governor line on my Ohio ballot that year.

With respect to immigrants, Dewine is trying to maximize the profits of the companies that are exploiting these people. When it comes down to it, there are likely subsidies involved that make hiring these immigrants advantageous. Maybe the funding is State; maybe it is Federal.

The end result can be seen in Springfield. Ohioans who rent are pushed out. Subsidies make it more profitable for property owners to transform their properties into bunkhouses. The result is slums. Ohioans cannot compete for jobs or housing against subsidized immigrants. Licenses are issued to folks who can’t drive. Things become unsafe. None of this is in the interest of Ohio voters. All of it is in the interest of Dewine donors.

7 /\With respect to immigrants, Dewine is trying to maximize the profits of the companies that are exploiting these people.

Dewine and Ohio and not the only ones. Excellent assessment and post Supe.

* New, most appropriate word. "Bunkhouses."

8 bunkhouses sounds about right.

14 Rock cocaine sold on inner city street corners.
Buyer's money taken by minors, run to 'the bank', exchanged for the rocks and run back to the corner.

Different corners for different market commodities operating on the same 'hands off' staffing plan.

16 For the companies that hire the illegals, just hit them with a one million dollar fine per violation/person. Shit will end very quick as they let them go or go under.

17 DeWine’s gig is to facilitate the availability of low cost “refugees” with legal status. It’s not slavery, but the immigrants are being exploited. You can tell that exploitation is taking place because nobody making $15 to $20 an hour chooses to sleep in a bunkhouse that they rented for 4 hours. There is a huge chunk missing out of their pay that is not accounted for. The missing money is in the pockets of a person that manages an agency that provides the labor commodity to the employer. The renters are making bank. There are likely cuts for local and state politicians. Some of of it may be in the form of campaign contributions. DeWine would argue that this economic activity is beneficial to Ohioans. It does benefit a few Ohioans in the same way that Obamacare provided profits to insurers and was detrimental to the vast majority of people. DeWine will be feverishly working to replace the Haitians, Somalians and Afghans with some more impoverished legal refugees from half a globe away. Ukrainians can’t be used because they all have relatives in Cleveland and can’t be exploited.

18 When we were a token Capitalist Country in my youth, I was told if the job was unfilled, it would force the employer to raise wages. That's how it was explained to me.

If the job goes unfilled because they wont raise the wage, is this Capitalism?

19 ..basic economics 101 - supply and demand.

What screws up basic economics is government interference. The governor seems to confuse 'rent' with 'labor' scarcity driving up prices.
