Maybe I was on to something. Maybe he is in a parallel universe where slavery ended in the late 1920's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Orlando Buffalo Posted 3 hours ago Share Posted 3 hours ago 42 minutes ago, Joe Ferguson forever said: You are a strange little man. Looky what jobs were #3 for illegals in Fla https://www.floridapolicy.org/posts/nearly-400-000-undocumented-immigrants-work-in-six-key-statewide-industries-study-says. Perhaps the new law accounts for some of the high cost of living in Fla? Pls link the 2012 reference. You link to an article that literally was wrong about everything as far as the impact of the new law last year but I should simply trust the premise? As for why I picked 2012 is I traveled around the country until 2013 and I had enough contact with general managers for Marriott hotels who told me they could not compete on the dirt cheap rates of lesser motels because they could not hire the illegals who work on daily pay. This was a general manager outside Chicago and one outside Atlanta. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nah, I’m in a hotel in a fairly conservative city with immigrants ( some likely illegal) after a nice day roaming around. We ate in nice restaurants so the staff was mostly American although we didn’t go back in the kitchens. Couldn’t bring ourselves to visit the slave market. But you be you. I bet you’d be interested but not want it in textbooks. 13 minutes ago, Orlando Buffalo said: You link to an article that literally was wrong about everything as far as the impact of the new law last year but I should simply trust the premise?

A general manager you say… seems something there is causing inflation worse than the remainder of the country https://www.tallahassee.com/story/news/local/state/2024/04/10/florida-inflation-highest-rate-rise/73272034007/#:~:text=Florida's inflation rate nearly 4%%2C highest in nation&text=On a monthly basis%2C costs,of 9.1% in June 2022.

A general manager you say… I have no interest in seeing a slave market. It was a dark time in history. However, I still am confused about the less than 100 years comment.

Law passed in 2023, we had high inflation in 2022. You need to learn to look at a calendar. Housing has become more readily available, fruit and vegetables have not gotten more expensive since last year, and no longer waits in restaurants. Those are the 3 things they warned about, as for childcare I can't comment because it has been a tight market in our market since 2008 at a minimum.

So what caused the highest inflation in the country in April 2024? Yacht prices in Miami? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is literally a line in your article "but rent, car insurance and transportation costs continue to rise." Rent has been rising slower and appears to be stable in my area now. The other parts are not related to your predictions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also from the linked article According to the U.S. Census Bureau, you can expect to spend an average of $287.27 a week on groceriesin Florida, the fifth most expensive state in the nation after California, Nevada, Mississippi and Washington. With children in the house, Floridians spend, on average, $341.40 a week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
