IMF warns World economies of Trump regime!

21 December 2016 (01:35 UTC-07 Tango 06) 01 Dey 1395/21 Rabi ‘al-Awwal 1438/23 Geng Zi 4714

“The timing of the abrupt asset-price movements—coming within days of the U.S. election—is the key clue about what moved markets. The election of Donald Trump as president, coupled with continuing Republican control of the Congress, ended six years of divided U.S. government.

………More rapidly rising U.S. interest rates signal further dollar appreciation. Tax incentives for U.S. corporation to repatriate their past profits held abroad, which some estimate at $2.5 trillion, could also push the dollar up. Given faster demand growth, the outcome will be a widening U.S. current account deficit, that is, more borrowing from abroad. Some of it will possibly finance a growing Federal fiscal deficit, depending on the precise features of the U.S. fiscal package, the extent to which it is paid for by budget cuts elsewhere, the path of government borrowing rates, and the economy’s growth response.

……..If sharp exchange rate shifts and growing global imbalances follow the U.S. policy regime change, protectionist pressures become a major risk…….it is most likely that emerging market economies are the main targets for higher trade barriers erected by advanced economies.

Governments should therefore keep in mind that protection is likely to be counterproductive at home……In an environment of sharply divergent policy mixes, as we may now be facing, the rules of the global trading system will be more important than ever.”–Maurice Obstfeld, International Monetary Fund Economic Counsellor and Director of Research,  and Professor of Economics

My Immigrant Idaho: Mormon farmers suffer under Trump’s illegals policy!

21 November 2016 (03:24 UTC-07 Tango 01) 01 Azar 1395/20 Safar 1438/22 Ji Hai 4714

“It would have to be a massive, military type effort. And then what?   ….Our dairy industry in Idaho depends on immigrant labor….”-John Thompson, Idaho Farm Bureau Federation, commenting on Donald Trump’s campaign promise to deport illegal immigrants

Right before the False Flag elections on 08 November 2016 (the official Electoral College elections take place on 19 December) it was revealed that Idaho’s businesses are employing an estimated 41-thousand undocumented (ie illegal) migrant workers.  Under Trump’s promised plan to deport illegals it’s estimated that Idaho agricultural industry alone would lose at least 25% of their illegal migrant workers (one estimate says 40% of Idaho’s ag workers are illegal).

I’ve written before that the true reason ‘christian’ lawmakers in Idaho are allowing illegal immigration is that thousands of U.S. citizens have fled The Gem State.  The southern Idaho Twin Falls area has long been ground zero for immigrants.

In June of this year, The Economist revealed that this goes back the end of the U.S. occupation of Vietnam, when Mormon-LDS dominated leaders began a immigrant farm labor program (as a False Flag program run by taxpayer funded College of Southern Idaho) under the guise of helping refugees from Southeast Asia.  Today that program has exploded to the point where federal agencies, and the United Nations, are directly involved.

The Twin Falls College of Southern Idaho Refugee operation has become so big that an Idaho Falls TV station drove three hours to Twin Falls to do a report about it.  KIFI reported “Many people don’t know that Idaho is a major refugee resettlement destination. There are centers in Boise and Twin Falls that welcome hundreds of refugees from all over the world each year.”   But their report wasn’t negative, KIFI’s report made it sound like most Twin Fallsians love the CSI Refugee Center job stealing program.

Right to Work (you over) governor Butch Otter giving praise at the Chobani alter

One of the largest employers in Twin Falls is immigrant founded Chobani Yogurt. Between his New York and Idaho yogurt operations the owner admits to employing at least 3-hundred immigrants.

But don’t think the U.S. citizens who call Twin Falls home support the covert College of Southern Idaho Refugee Center program.  The Refugee Center administrators admit that 3-hundred refugees are brought through Twin Falls every year, with most staying put.  What KIFI failed to report was that U.S. citizens living in Twin Falls, including agronomist Adrian Arp, are pissed and hope Donald Trump keeps his promise to get rid of illegal immigrants: “I think God is giving us another chance. I mean, seriously. You looked at all the odds. The Republican establishment. The crooked media. Despite it all, he was able to pull it off. And now we’ve got to hold his feet to the fire.”

Some pro-immigrant groups (please notice that most pro-immigrant groups support illegal immigration, not legal immigration) downplay the number of immigrants arriving in Idaho.  At this point more than 95-thousand immigrants have arrived, but keep in mind the official population of Idaho is about 1.5-million, that’s a fraction of New York City’s population of just over 8-million!

Red Neck Fail: ‘Christian’ Texas home base for taxpayer funded Islamic extremist schools!

18 November 2016 (12:29 UTC-07 Tango 01) 28 Aban 1395/17 Safar 1438/19 Ji Hai 4714

“Among the issues in the complaint that were left aside by TEA include evidence of discrimination in hiring, pay, and promotion favoring Turkish males, preference for related Turkish vendors in major contracts, discrimination against English Language learners and Students with Disabilities, abuse of the H-1B visa program to bring in underqualified Turkish nationals for teaching and leadership positions, misuse of federal program funding for low socioeconomic students and students with special needs, and systematic overcharging of leases to Harmony schools by Harmony’s private real estate arm to siphon over $18 million of public funds out of the schools.”–Gülen Investigation.com

President Bill Clinton praising lobbying efforts (bribing of U.S. politicians) by Muhammed Fethullah Gülen and his followers: 

The ‘christian’ dominated Texas Education Agency (TEA) has concluded yet another in-house investigation into a Turkish immigrant run U.S. taxpayer funded school system.  The latest accusations that the Houston based nationwide school system is really an Islamic Extremist recruitment system comes from NATO member Turkey. The TEA stated the claims were “unfounded” despite ‘mountains’ of publicly available evidence.

Retired U.S. general Michael T. Flynn, and posible advisor to President Trump, accuses Gülen of being a terrorist

This announcement by the TEA came as U.S. Presidential elect Donald Trump asked retired Lieutenant General Michael Flynn to be his national security adviser.  Just days ago Flynn wrote “From Turkey’s point of view, Washington is harboring Turkey’s Osama bin Laden…..    ….To add insult to injury, American taxpayers are helping finance Gülen’s 160 charter schools in the United States. These schools have been granted more H1-B visas than Google.”  That ‘Osama bin Laden’ is Muhammed Fethullah Gülen, who has been protected by various U.S. presidents since 1997.  (is Flynn’s opposition to Gülen the real reason Obama fired him?)

2012 CBSNews 60 Minutes report, in which they were told Muhammed Fethullah Gülen does not speak to news media:

In 1997 Muhammed Fethullah Gülen was secretly rescued from Turkey by U.S. President Bill Clinton, after Gülen publicly ordered his minions to overthrow the Turkish government.  Since then he’s created an extensive taxpayer funded charter school system across the U.S.  NATO member Turkey claims that some of the Islamic Extremist insurgents they’ve captured came from the U.S. and attended those schools.

2014 British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) interview with Muhammed Fethullah Gülen: 

It should be noted that Turkish immigrant teachers went public a couple of years ago and said that Gülen was intentionally laying off U.S. citizen teachers and replacing them with Turkish immigrants, because he was making money by forcing the immigrants to kickback 40% of their pay to his organization!

Former Gülen followers reveal the hidden extremist movement: 

A group called Citizens Against Special Interest Lobbying in Public Schools are tracking the Gülen school systems.  They identified hundreds of charter schools operating across the U.S., under different names (including in Mormon dominated Utah, under the name of Beehive which is one of the Masonic symbols of Mormonism), but directly linked to Harmony in Texas, and all under the direction of Muhammed Fethullah Gülen (who lives in Pennsylvania).

EU dumping U.S.? NATO issues U.S. travel warnings!

13 November 2016 (11:35 UTC-07 Tango 01) 23 Aban 1395/12 Safar 1438/14 Ji Hai 4714

“US law enforcement is on high alert through this whole period so they are in some ways expecting something to happen…  ….Stay away from rallies, marches, protests or any large gathering of people, even if it’s a peaceful march.”-Dean Van Es, travel insurance executive in Australia

“Based on demonstrators’ social media posts, it’s clear the demonstrations will likely continue for some time.“– Dışişleri Bakanlığı (Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Turkey)

“The only time Nato has invoked its self-defence clause….was in support of the United States after the 9/11 terrorist attacks. This was more than just a symbol. Nato went on to take charge of the operation in Afghanistan. Hundreds of thousands of European soldiers have served in Afghanistan since. And more than 1,000 have paid the ultimate price in an operation that is a direct response to an attack against the United States…..    ….In these uncertain times we need strong American leadership, and we need Europeans to shoulder their fair share of the burden…..So rather than deepening our differences, we need to nurture what unites us….”-Jens Stoltenberg, NATO Secretary General in public letter aimed at Donald Trump

“National defense is a priority in the policy of France. We are at the beginning of a new cycle that will be marked by a lasting threat…. …to give back to Europe its capacity……..to ensure our internal security…”-Nicole Ameline,  member of National Assembly of France

“…America to be threatened economically and culturally and can no longer expect anything from politics…..      ….President Trump….The day before, he wanted to throw Hillary Clinton into prison. The following day, he praised them and praised them…  …In my opinion, he will produce disappointment….   ….that is a….threatening development for Europe…. We can not replace America, so we must become much stronger….   …there is still a third big player….China.”-Norbert Röttgen,  former Federal Minister for Environment, Deutschland

“We have a lot to thank the Americans for, but they won’t look after Europe’s security for ever. We have to do this ourselves.“-Jean-Claude Juncker, President of European Union Commission

NATO’s ominous Planet of the Crossing symbol with its four Cardinal Directions, proving NATO is about controlling the world

The 2008 U.S. presidential election might be the election heard ’round the world, but it’s now clear that the 2016 elections were felt like a punch in the gut!  At this point six NATO member/partnership countries have imposed travel warnings for any of their citizens traveling to the United States.

The most recent warnings come from Australia and Turkey.  NATO member Turkey is telling travelers to stay out of U.S. metro areas of Los Angeles, Chicago, New York City, Portland and Seattle, and has gone as far as warning their citizens living the U.S. to “take necessary security measures at their homes and work.”   Realize that these warnings are coming from a NATO member who’s currently purging its navy of officers and has shutdown hundreds of NGOs under the guise they are terrorist organizations.

The British empire’s Australia, an enhanced NATO partner, just told Aussies living in United States to prep for evacuation.  Australian news sources are reporting that U.S. federal and state administrators are secretly deploying masses of paramilitary police forces in anticipation of social collapse.

But several NATO members issued travel warnings for the U.S. back in July.  France, Canada, New Zealand, and Deutschland issued warnings with reasons ranging from zika virus fears to simple anti-2nd Amendment sanctions (yes, NATO countries want to boycott the U.S. for its Constitutional Right guaranteeing citizen’s ability to own military grade weapons!).

Of course the British empire’s queen is pro-gun, as long as only her Royal Army, Air Force, Navy-Marines have the guns!

British empire’s New Zealand (officially considered one of NATO’s “partners across the globe”) actually stated that one of their reasons to want a ban on travel to the U.S. was because “There is a higher incidence of …..firearm possession than in New Zealand.”

Apparently the once U.S. led NATO might no longer be led by the United States.

Idaho Trump protesters claim “unity” & “love” yet prepared to “fight” those who don’t agree!

Video

11 November 2016 (00:04 UTC-07 Tango 01) 21 Aban 1395/10 Safar 1438/12 Ji Hai 4714

Protest organizers in The Gem State’s capitol city say they will “fight for a better future” yet claim they are “People for Unity” and that they’re about “love not hate” while at the same time making it clear they hate their fellow ‘Americans’ who voted for Donald Trump.  

Video sent to Blind Bat News:

vid_20161110_195442

Protesters also continued the false claim that ‘America’ never turns its back on immigrants or conducts mass deportations, revealing their mass ignorance of U.S. history when past presidents (both Democrats and Republicans) and the U.S. Congress singled out entire ethnic and religious groups, including Jews and Muslims, from entering the United States legally.

Idaho Statesman: “Trump says ‘Go back,’ we say ‘Fight back,’” was one of the chants by the crowd.

Maybe Trump is Right? Multiple vote rigging arrests across the U.S.!

29 October 2016 (16:14 UTC-07 Tango 01)  08 Aban 1395/27 Muharram 1438/29 Wu Zu 4714

In Florida two women under arrest for vote rigging (election misconduct).  A 74 years old woman was arrested after being caught changing early voting ballots, while employed as a county elections worker.  Prosecutors say she admitted to changing votes on ballots.  A 33 years old woman was arrested for filing false voter registration forms while campaigning for a medical marijuana advocacy group.  The Miami Herald even published an article on the history of vote rigging in The Sunshine State, saying that to keep track you need “a scorecard.”

In Virginia, a 30 years old man was arrested for filing false voter registration forms while working as a voter registration activist.

In Iowa, a 55 years old woman was arrested for voting twice in the early voting program.  She claims it was a spontaneous decision, adding “I don’t know what came over me.”  Two other Iowans are suspected of vote rigging by voting both by mail and at early election polling stations.

“…. substantial numbers of felons, among others, are illegally being allowed to vote, because Minnesota’s Secretary of State refuses to follow the law….      This is sheer lawlessness on the part of Governor Mark Dayton’s administration, and it is just one of a number of ways in which laws intended to promote ballot security are being violated or circumvented so that felons (who overwhelmingly vote Democratic), illegal aliens and others can cast ballots.”-Minnesota Voters Alliance

In Texas, a man was arrested for interfering with early voting.  The United Hispanic Council reports that recent investigations into alleged voter fraud has had the result of actually keeping eligible people from voting.

“On March 26, 2014, three investigators from Maryland’s Office of the State Prosecutor sat at my dining room table and showed me a signature on a photocopy taken from a D.C. poll book……   Somebody had clearly voted using my name.”–Derek Willis

The U.S. Attorney General says she will establish a voter fraud hotline (603-230-2503) for the voters of New Hampshire.

Pennsylvania TV station WPVI discovered at least five cases where people who were dead somehow cast votes in recent elections. In one case a woman who died in 2006 somehow cast ballots in 2008, 2012, 2014 and even during the 2016 primaries! 

While these arrests might support Donald Trump’s claims it should be pointed out that most of those arrested, so far, are Trump supporters.

Audio reveals Clinton wants rigged elections!

29 October 2016 (06:04 UTC-07 Tango 01)  08 Aban 1395/27 Muharram 1438/29 Wu Zu 4714

“…if we were going to push for an election, then we should have made sure that we did something to determine who was going to win.”-Senator Hillary Clinton, September 2006

Maybe Donald Trump is correct about elections being rigged?

Eli Chomsky of the Jewish Press just released the 45 minute audio tape of his 2006 recording of then senator Hillary Clinton.  He said his bosses refused to publish her comments, officially because they thought her statements weren’t “newsworthy”.  But was it really because she was talking about the United States contemplating the rigging of Palestinian elections?

Chomsky says Clinton’s statement was in direct response to the Palestinian elections, which took place eight months prior.  Apparently U.S. officials were thinking about rigging those elections because they knew Hamas would win.

Clinton also revealed that she is part of the False Flag op known as the War on Terror: “I think you can make the case that whether you call it ‘Islamic terrorism’ or ‘Islamo-fascism,’ whatever the label is we’re going to give to this phenomenon, it’s a threat. It’s a global threat. To Europe, to Israel, to the United States…Therefore we need a global response. It’s a global threat and it needs a global response. That can be the, sort of, statement of principle…So I think sometimes having the global vision is a help as long as you realize that underneath that global vision there’s a lot of variety and differentiation that has to go on.”

“Everything is on the table….No one is safe.” : August 2016 U.S. Federal State & Local Shenanigans

Incomplete list of U.S. Federal/State/Local Government self-destruct announcements for August 2016:

Bill & Hillary Clinton claim they paid 34.2% of their income to federal income taxes.  They also claim they paid 9.8% of their ‘adjusted’ income to charity, mostly to their own charity informally called Clinton Family Foundation (which, by the way, is how they keep their daughter Chelsea employed, it’s officially called the Bill, Hillary & Chelsea Clinton Foundation).

Flip-Flopper Hillary: According to The Washington Times, Hillary Clinton helped create the not-so-free Obama regime’s free trade deal known as Trans Pacific Partnership (TPP), but now as a presidential candidate Hillary Clinton claims she will cancel TPP becasue it’s not free or fair to the working class!

The Washington Post revealed that despite Donald Trump claiming his golf courses are worth tens of millions of U.S. dollars his state tax filings are claiming otherwise, but only because Trump is trying to reduce paying his fair share of taxes.  

California: Victor Valley Wastewater Reclamation Authority laid off 13 people.  VVWRA is paid by how much sewage water flows into their privately run treatment plant, and sewage flows crashed by 22% (since 2010), forcing VVWRA to conduct across the board layoffs.  VVWRA blames the city of Victorville for diverting one-millions gallons of sewage into the city run treatment plant.  The city of Victorville counters by blaming delayed construction of a new pipeline on VVWRA.  That pipeline is supposedly functional now, and was 94% funded by taxes from the federal government (through FEMA).  Not only has Cupertino based Apple avoided paying its fair share of taxes to the not-so Golden State, as well as the United States, but apparently failed to pay the equivilant of $14-million USD in taxes to the European Union!  The Guardian reports that the Obama regime is threatening the European Union (an ally of the U.S.) for demanding U.S. companies like Apple pay their fair share in taxes!  And San Francisco based Uber failed to pay Taiwan the equivilant of $6.3-million in taxes!  The government of Taiwan (an ally of the U.S.) says Uber hasn’t paid taxes since 2013!

Colorado: The Colorado Weekly Homebuyers List reports at least six property owners/businesses facing federal and state tax liens, just in Boulder County.

Delaware: Illinois based HVS Convention, Sports, and Entertainment Consulting ties Delaware with Idaho for the 8th highest hotel tax rate in the U.S.

Florida: Brevard County Court warning of layoffs due to state taxpayer funding cuts.  The county Clerk of Courts told local news that 28 jobs could be eliminated between now and January 2017.  Local news reports say Brevard County Court has been eliminating jobs since 2008; from 480 to now less than 3-hundred.

Idaho: A Fourth District Judge has thrown out a lawsuit challenging the 2014 law that heaps huge taxpayer funded incentives on companies moving to The Gem State.  Tens of millions in tax breaks (supposedly in the form of “reimbursements”) have already gone to companies like California based Amy’s Kitchen and Ireland’s Glanbia Foods. Agricultural news source Capital Press also revealed that an undisclosed food producer was recently given a $15-million tax credit for creating a piddly 80 jobs in Boise.  The state Depatment of Commerce claims that tax ‘reimbursments’ helped create 4,737 new jobs. But if companies aren’t paying their fair share of taxes how are the state and local governments going to make up for it?  By hitting Idaho residents with jacked up taxes and fees, of course.

If you’ve got a family and you’re thinking about moving to Idaho to get a job with one of those taxpayer subsidized companies, think again.  The Gem State is one of the worst when it comes to affordable child daycare, and the state government does nothing about it.  Economic Policy Institute says the average Idaho family spends $6-hundred per month per child on daycare.  Child Care Aware says from 2013 to 2014 childcare costs in Idaho skyrocketed by 19.9%!  Even a daycare operator says it’s not worth it to raise a family in Idaho: “Ultimately, when you do the math, and mom is only making X amount, how much of that money is going toward lunches out, and extra clothing, and taxes, and gas to get to and from? You have to look at all of that and see if it’s cost-effective.”-Megan MacCleary, Megan’s Munchkins Preschool, whose income from her daycare operation is so low she qualies for Medicaid (even though daycare rates have gone up Idaho still ranks third lowest for daycare operator/worker pay)

Indiana: Ball State University economist Michael Hicks warned that taxpayers are being raped in the name of saving the corporate retail industry: “We are in the fourth or fifth iteration of government subsidizing new development at the urging of property developers, consultant firms and bond attorneys. Each time a shiny new strip mall is opened, a small-business owner somewhere else is eventually put out of business. The cycle continues. Consultants get rich, local economic developers claim jobs and local taxpayers get struck with empty retail infrastructure they didn’t need, and not enough money to fix the schools…”

Kansas: More proof of Failed State-ism; yet again monthly state tax collections failed to cover state government expenses.  August tax collections were $10-million USD short of what was needed!  Blame unAmerican corporate America: “Individual income taxes beat estimates for the second month of the fiscal year, which is encouraging, but corporate, sale and use tax receipts continue to lag pulling down the overall totals.”-Nick Jordan,  Secretary of Revenue

Kentucky: Illinois based HVS Convention, Sports, and Entertainment Consulting says Kentucky experienced a 19.32% hotel tax revenue growth, the biggest growth in the U.S.

Massachusetts: The Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority warning of mass layoffs due to being ‘in the hole’ by $100-million USD!  At least 60 MBTA janitors are being laid off, for a start.

Michigan:  Proof of Failed State-ism; Montcalm County Sheriff Department warning deputies of possibly layoffs due to the county being in the financial hole by $1.5-million USD.  County administrators revealed that since 2012 tax collections have fallen behind expenses by an average of $2-million per year!  (if the private sector can’t pay people enough, then people can’t pay taxes)

New Jersey: More proof of Failed State-ism; The city of Paterson shutdown 36 taxpayer funded summer camps, warned of 250 layoffs, forced furlough days for remaining employees, and  intentionally increase police issued traffic tickets to generate cash!  Even with the layoffs, and forcing police to arbitrarily issue 30-thousand (80 per day) additional money generating traffic tickets, city administrators whine that they will still be short $2.1-million USD!  The New York Times revelaed that when Chris Christie became governor he reduced the $30-million in taxes owed by the now dead Trump Taj Mahal Casino Resort to just $5-million!  Now we know the reason why Trump went from being a Democrat to being a Republican; bribery!

New Mexico: Cibola County prison shutting down by October, 3-hundred jobs affected!  The prison has been operated by the evil for profit Corrections Corporation of America (CCA) since 1998, CCA refused to say why they’re shutting the prison down.  It might be connected to the fact the federal government’s own study shows “They do not save substantially on costs and … they do not maintain the same level of safety and security.”

New York: The town of Oyster Bay is $700-million USD in debt, 103 employees have been retired early and another 150 will be laid off!    John Venditto, town supervisor for 18 years, warned “Everything is on the table. There will be a proportion between non-exempt employees and exempt employees. No one is safe.”

By the way, former Oyster Bay commissioner Frederick Ippolito had his federal court sentencing delayed. He pled guilty to failing to pay taxes on a $2-million consulting fee he was paid while serving as the town’s planning and development commissioner.

Ohio: According to Crain’s Cleveland Business the Internal Revenue Service has filed federal tax liens against 21 businesses.

South Carolina: Illinois based HVS Convention, Sports, and Entertainment Consulting says South Carolina experienced a negative 3.22% hotel tax revenue ‘growth’, the biggest decline in the U.S.

Washington DC: The Congressional Budget Office says within ten years taxpayer spending on military and civilian government jobs will hit a 53 years low, due to crashing tax revenues and skyrocketing costs of operations (especially due to ObamaCare).  Already the Internal Revenue Service has eliminated 17-thousand tax collecting jobs in the past six years!

“It’s not like they’re taking jobs from Americans” 5-million migrants refuse to leave! : U.S. Job Losses & Closings 15 June 2016

Incomplete list of U.S. job loss announcements and shutdowns.

Alabama: What construction industry recovery? In Decatur, after 24 years Marvin’s Building Materials shutting down by July.

California: In Salinas, Foothill Packing has been fined $235-thousand USD for falsely firing U.S. citizens and replacing them with H-1B migrants: “The employer claimed the workers — who were U.S. citizens — had failed to meet production standards. Investigators found that many of them had consistently exceeded the production of many of the foreign workers doing the same jobs, yet Foothill did not terminate these foreign workers.“-U.S. Department of Labor press release

Electric car maker Tesla has been caught directly importing migrants to work in The Golden State!  The San Jose Mercury News reports that the migrants are not legal H-1B workers but are illegal immigrants.  The newspaper tracked an immigrant from Slovenia who worked for Tesla.  When confronted Tesla administrators flat denied employing the immigrant. Watch the video:

Idaho: The Fire Chief of Chubbuck resigned in connection to the planned merger of the city of Chubbuck’s fire department with the city of Pocatello (both cities are dealing with cash problems despite continually telling the taxpayers the economy is good): “Whether the consolidation goes forward or not it’s not going to be affected by whom the chief is at the time.”-Joshua Ellis, Chubbuck city councilman

Speaking of Chubbuck and Pocatello, the county of Bannock made an appeal to property owners to pay their property taxes, warning of fines and interest charges.  It sounded like the county is having problems with property tax collections, which would not be happening if the economy was good.  I gotta message for Bannock County: “You can’t squeeze blood from a turnip.”

Kansas: In Wichita, Via Christi Health eliminating 70 more jobs on top of the 80 they’ve already cut!  Yet, at the same time hospital administrators told local news that they plan to hire 80 people!

Massachusetts: The city of Boston Weak and the college of Babson announced they will create their own migrant ‘visa’ program to get around the federal H-1B!   An unnamed ‘official’ connected to the scam flat out lied and said “It’s not like they’re taking jobs from Americans, they’re giving jobs to Americans.”

Michigan: Benton Harbor Area Schools eliminating 43 jobs in an effort to save $1.4-million USD.  However, local news sources say the district is also planning on creating 12 new positions.

New Jersey: Inspira Medical Center eliminating at least 67 jobs at two locations by August.  Saks Fifth Avenue eliminating 137 Short Hills jobs by September!

New York: Old Country Buffet issued a shutdown WARN for their Bay Shore operation, 42 jobs gone by mid-September.  Unnamed sources say the Daily News laid off 22 people, after attempts to sell the newspaper failed.

North Carolina: Charlotte based Too Big to Jail Bank of America announced it will ‘accelerate’ its job destruction by 8-thousand jobs as part of its “digital banking” plan!  It’s blamed on a sudden 15% increase in people using digital banks instead of brick-n-mortar banks (never mind the fact that increase was forced by BoA shutting down 23% of its offices since 2009).

Oregon: Law firms (American Immigration Lawyers Association and  American Immigration Council) in Oregon are suing the federal government over the H-1B program,  not because H-1B is taking jobs from U.S. citizens but because their foreign clients were turned down for H-1B visas!

Texas: Big 5 Sporting Goods shutting down five of its eight Texas stores!  Local news media say administrators refused to talk about it.    Recently two people were convicted and sentenced to federal prison for seven years, for running an H-1B scam.  They were falsifying H-1B documents to bring in migrants from India.  An Indian news source stated the H-1B program was created “to create a low-cost workforce in the US.”  This news came at the same time it was revealed the oil industry in Texas was employing thousands of people from around the world.  The recent oil industry BS hit one Texas town hard as it was home to many of the migrants: “80 to 100 families have relocated to their home country primarily because of job changes and changes in the economy.”-Richard Rowell, business owner in Katy City

Washington DC:  More proof U.S. jobs are going to immigrants; during a Congressional hearing it was revealed that at least 5-million migrants violated their H-1B visas and now refuse to leave the United States!  This means they’re now illegal immigrants but the federal government isn’t doing anything about it, a grand total of 10-thousand visa violation cases were investigated out of the now 5-million violators known to be in the U.S.!   Despite the latest revelations, the U.S. Government Accountability Office (GAO) issued a  new Visa Waiver Program which allows immigrants to enter the United States without getting visas from U.S. consular officers!

Indian news media revealed that the U.S. government is making bank on its H-1B visa program.  At the end of last year the Obama regime jacked up the fees paid by foreigners for H-1Bs by $4-thousand USD!  The U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services handles the H-1B applications.

FALSE FLAG: DENMARK REPORTS 50,000 MIGRANTS “DISAPPEARING”!

14 June 2016: “We are announcing that we have decided to close down our operations effective today.”

WARN=Worker Adjustment & Retraining Notification.

I found a 2010 AFL-CIO analysis (titled The Public Availability of WARN Notices: Lack of Accessibility and Disclosure…) which proves what I’ve been suspecting in my search of state WARN notices; most states are not complying with federal WARN regulations and are not publicizing or tracking mass layoffs.

Former employees who receive severance are not counted as unemployed!

Employees of religious non-profits might not qualify for unemployment assistance: “If the non-profit organization is a church, you may or may not be entitled to unemployment. It all depends upon state regulations for church employers. In many cases, churches are allowed to set their own rules regarding unemployment benefits, meaning the church can choose whether to offer benefits to former employees.”

The U.S. Department of Labor (DoL) no longer issues mass layoff reports: “On March 1, 2013, President Obama ordered into effect the across-the- board spending cuts (commonly referred to as sequestration) required by the Balanced Budget and Emergency Deficit Control Act, as amended. Under the order, the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) must cut its current budget by more than $30 million, 5 percent of the current 2013 appropriation, by September 30, 2013. In order to help achieve these savings and protect core programs, the BLS will eliminate two programs, including Mass Layoff Statistics, and all ‘measuring green jobs’ products. This news release is the final publication of monthly mass layoff survey data.”

“Why are we killing ourselves…?” “There has certainly been a seismic shift…” “It just makes you sick.” : U.S. Job Losses & Store Closings, 22 August 2015

Incomplete list of publicly announced layoffs & shutdowns:

“The management of employment is a great human and social responsibility, that cannot be left in the hands of the few…To cause job losses means to cause serious social damage…”-Pope Francis, hypocritically criticizing layoffs despite the fact the Catholic Church is shutting down church and charity operations all over the United States

“Our real unemployment rate…..because you have ninety million people that aren’t working. Ninety-three million to be exact. If you start adding it up, our real unemployment rate is 42%.”-Donald Trump, interview with Time

U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics says Illinois, Missouri and Rhode Island are all tied for 15th worst unemployment rate in the U.S., for July.

Alaska: In Anchorage a second Alaska Club handball-racquetball center will shutdown this year.  The property is for sale. It’s blamed on crashing memberships: “There has certainly been a seismic shift in the number of people playing racquetball and handball.”-Robert Brewster, president

Arkansas: The sale of the vacant Majestic Hotel has been suspended indefinitely.  Apparently the Missouri based ‘corporate’ buyer is facing legal problems with his own creditors.  If the sale had gone through it would have been a big loss for the people of Hot Springs as their own Board of Directors had agreed to sell the $2-million USD property for only $680-thousand!

Connecticut: Laser maker Lumentum shutting down their Bloomfield factory.  No details about when or how many jobs will be lost.  As with most U.S. corporations they are consolidating manufacturing in anticipation of a worsening economy: “…in order to meet our customers’ future cost expectations...”

Illinois: At least three camps leased by the Girl Scouts of Southern Illinois being shutdown due to crashing membership and increasing maintenance costs.  The camps in Salem, Makanda and Worden will shutdown by the middle of 2017: “We just have too many camps for the size of our council.”-Villie Apoo, Girl Scouts ceo

Kansas: In Topeka, Aussie themed Florida based Outback Steakhouse shutdown with little notice, 60 jobs lost.  The manager hinted that profits have crashed, but refused to give a specific ‘official’ reason to local news media.

Massachusetts: The Massachusetts Institute of Technology says cell phones can be used to more accurately count the number of unemployed people.  Researchers noted that in European cities where big layoffs took place there was a 51% drop in cell phone usage.  Even the number of cell towers needed to handle the calls dropped by 20%.

Michigan: In Grand Haven, after 36 years RK Jewelers shutting down in September.  In Niles, God refuses to help ‘his’ British empire founded Salvation Army Food Pantry stay open.  The local Salvation Army Major blames a decrease in donations and a steady increase in poor people: “We have been seeing for the last three or four years a lot of new folks that we’ve never seen before.”-Major William Walters

Minnesota: ObamaCare forcing North Memorial Medical Center to shutdown its Home Care operations, at least 1-hundred jobs lost!  4-hundred patients affected!

New Jersey: The state Department of Labor and Workforce Development says 13-thousand 6-hundred people lost their jobs in July! 

New York: In Greenport, after 15 years Cuvee Bistro and Bar shutting down in September.  Family health problems are blamed.

North Carolina: A-hole ‘lawmakers’ are trying to pass a new bill that would make it harder for unemployed people to qualify for unemployment assistance (stop calling it a ‘benefit’!)!

Ohio:  God refuses to stop the shutdown of ‘his’ Good Shepherd Parish in East Toledo, and ‘his’ Advent Lutheran Church in Sylvania.  It’s blamed on decreasing members (The Rapture? or maybe people have woken up to The Lie) and increasing costs of operations.  The Lodge restaurant in Lancaster shutdown.  The property owner, who bought the Lodge from the Elks Club in 2010 and then shelled out more money for major renovations, revealed he’s been trying to sell the building for some time, but for various reasons the deals fall through.  The United Way, Kiwanis and Rotary Clubs lamented the loss of their favorite meeting place.

Oregon: In Saint John’s Bar, The Central Hotel restaurant and bar shutting down by the end of the month, 11 jobs lost.  The property owner is selling it to a property developer.   The restaurant operator also admitted they never had any intention of running a restaurant anyway: “…we ended up taking over the restaurant, which is never something that we planned on doing. We just kind of said, ‘Why are we killing ourselves to do this financially?’….it has been a huge financial strain.”-Risa Davis, co-owner

Tennessee: In Nashville, reports say the Granny White Market (aka Purple Cow) is being forced to shutdown by the greedy property owner who suddenly told the store owner he had six weeks to vacate: “After 19 years he tells me we need to close the doors. It just makes you sick.”-Dan Smith, Purple Cow owner

Washington: The evil city administrators of Bellingham forced local taxpayers to buy homeless shelter Aloha Motel for $1.5-million, and now they’ll shut it down for demolition in September!  A homeless man who’s lived their since 2014 asked “We’re told we have ’til August 31 to get out, but where else am I supposed to go?”     Linds Pharmacy in Coupeville shutting down next week.  The owner says he put Linds Pharmacy up for sale more than a year ago and Rite Aid was the only interested buyer.  The pissed owner blames his forced sale on ObamaCare insurance companies: “Our main financial challenge has been the pharmacy insurance companies and their continual lowering of fees and insistence on patients using their mail-order houses. Lowered prescription volumes, coupled with lowered fees, equals financial problems.”-flyer distributed to loyal customers

West Virginia: U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics says The Mountain State has the worst ‘official’ unemployment rate (7.5%) in the United States, for July.

Wisconsin: After 64 years God refuses to stop the shutdown and sell-off of ‘his’ Redeemer Lutheran Church in Caledonia.  Church leaders would rather blame it on people being sinful, but maybe it’s something called The Rapture: “Churches across the board are having this kind of problem….It’s hard to have them when you don’t have a lot of people.”-Doris Kidd, church secretary

21 August 2015: Federal Reserve confirms no recovery!
