Breitbart: The Bidenomics Atrocity: 7 Migrant Jobs for Each American Job
Biden's economic strategy, referred to as Bidenomics, has resulted in a net gain of only 160,000 American jobs annually, while creating 4.7 million jobs for migrants, including nearly three million illegal immigrants. This has led to a significant increase in the national debt, stagnation of wages, and rising housing costs, leaving many American workers without prospects.
The influx of migrants has been prioritized over aiding unemployed Americans, with the administration favoring rapid labor market expansion through immigration. This approach has resulted in a decline in job opportunities for U.S.-born workers and has contributed to inflationary pressures on wages and housing. The economic consequences of these policies are becoming increasingly evident as the administration faces criticism for its handling of labor and immigration issues.
