2019-01-03 (5779 Tebet 26)
Jerry Kammer _Center for Immigration Studies_
how leftist media missed the story of how Reagan (and his leftist opponents) wrecked immigration reform with IRCA1986
"...It was billed as both compassionate in providing amnesty for those who had lived in the USA 🇺🇸 for at least 5 years [then estimated at 1M, expanded to 3.3M, but stretched for several million more] and firm in its provisions to stop future illegal immigration by sanctioning [penalizing] employers who knowingly hired un-authorized workers [and violating USA 🇺🇸 citizens' privacy as part of a quick-and-dirty effort to determine «authorization»]...     Indeed, Reagan showed his fealty to the California agri-business interests that -- in concert with Mexican-American congressmen -- led the effort to ensure the failure of IRCA's procedures for verifying that a worker was not an illegal immigrant...     In his book _Ronald Reagan and the Politics of Immigration Reform_, Nicholas Latham concluded that the White House understood IRCA's provisions for identifying and stopping un-authorized workers would be in-effective.     [Latham] wrote that the weak work-site verification measures 'allowed Reagan to have it both ways, satisfying the public's demand for federal action against illegal immigration [and employment of illegal aliens 👽] without violating the president's philosophical commitment to limited government in the process'...     historial Otis Graham understood after careful study. 'Immigration reform was not a Reagan sort of issue.', wrote Graham, [an illiberal leftist] restrictionist who, unlike Reagan, was concerned about illegal immigration's evvects on [USA 🇺🇸 citizen] workers..."

  "[William H. Smith made Signius Wilhelm Poul Knudsen (both working for John R. Keim in his bicycle & metal-working factory)] think about a factory as something more than a place for making things.   A factory is a place for wealth creation, his mentor would tell him, and a place for practicing the dignity of work.   There is something sacred about work, about an honest productive effort that earns the wages that are the founcation of home and health, education and security -- and the foundation of the USA the Danish immigrant had fallen in love with." --- Arthur Herman 2012 _Freedom's Forge: How American Business Produced Victory in World War 2_ pp20-21

USA 🇺🇸 added seasonally-adjusted 312K jobs in December with a U-3 unemployment rate of 3.9%
MSFT JavaScript is still evil.

Estimated jobs dearth for men (not seasonally adjusted)=25M; the ladies are over-achieving, surpassing full employment by a few hundred thousand; jobs dearth for blacks=9.2M; jobs dearth for Asians=3.9M; aggregate jobs dearth=24.6M.  

Average duration of un-employment is 33.1 weeks better than worst on record, 2.3 weeks worse than best on record.   Median duration of un-employment is 16.9 weeks better than worst on record, 5.3 weeks worse than best on record;  

But the average duration of un-employment for those seeking full-time work is 21.8 weeks better than the worst ever, and 12.8 weeks worse than the best ever, while the median duration is 5.3 weeks better than the worst ever and 18.5 weeks worse than the best ever.

For those with less than the equivalent of a HS diploma, the employment/population ratio is 43.1%; 1.4 below the best on record (44.5%) and 8.5 percentage points better than the worst on record (34.6%).     For those with the equivalent of a HS diploma, the employment/population ratio is 55.6%, 2.5 percentage points better than the worst on record, and 7.9 percentage points below the best on record.     For those with some college/university, the employment/population ratio is 63.5%, 1 percentage point better than the worst on record, and 9.5 percentage points below the best on record, and fairly stable.     For those with the equivalent of a bachelor's degree, the employment/population ratio remains 72.1%, 0.8 percentage points better than the worst on record, and 7.7 percentage points below the best on record.

For "blacks", the employment/population ratio is 57.9%, 3.5 percentage points below the (61.4%) best on record, and 10.1 percentage points better than the (47.8%) worst.   For "whites", the employment/population ratio remains 60.7%, 4.6 percentage points below the (65.5%) best on record, 7.2 percentage points above the (53.7%) worst on record.   For Asians, the employment/population ratio is 61.5%, 3.1 percentage points below the (65.6%) best on record, 3.8 percentage points above the (58.7%) worst on record, and a little volatile in recent years, but improving.   For Hispanics/Latinos, the employment/population ratio is 64%, 2.9 percentage points below the (66.4%) best on record, 11.4 percentage points above the (52.1%) worst on record.

Plan S; & Nazis made the murder trains & camps "efficient"
libsyn
Tania Rabesandratan: Plan S, in which research reports are immediately published in open-access journals or repositories. 16 participating institutions so far.
Lewi Stone: Some 1.7M Jewish people were murdered by the Nazis in the 22 months of "Operation Reinhard" (1942-1943) which aimed to eliminate all Jews in Nazi-occupied Poland. But until now, the speed and totality of these murders were poorly understood. It turns out that about one-quarter of all Jews killed during the holocaust were murdered in the Autumn of 1942, during this operation... Why researchers are taking a quantitative approach to characterizing genocides.

best USA 🇺🇸 economy in 13 years
itunes
"... we currently have the best economy in 13 years, record low unemployment rates across multiple demographics.     There is more that unites USA 🇺🇸 citizens than divides us sounds cliche but it is true.     Most of us want our children to be educated and successful in life, and we all want to be prosperous and safe...     When was the last time a federal employee of media was up in arms over Jane Doe being laid off from her private sector job or the shut-down of a USA 🇺🇸 factory?     This comes down to perception versus reality.     The federal government positions themselves over our money as if we're fortunate to keep what is left after they tax us.     This is non-sense because [government does] not have any money.     They take our money!     [Our earnings.]     The bottom line here is that we do not need nearly as much government as we have [which is far more than the USA 🇺🇸 constitution 📜 permits].     But we do need border security to continue to safe-guard our country."

"Thus saith the Lord GOD: Let it suffice you, O princes of Israel; remove violence and spoil, and execute justice and righteousness; take away your exactions from My people, saith the Lord GOD. Ye shall have just balances, and a just ephah..." --- Ezekiel/ יחזקאל/ Yechezqal 45:9-
"Now this is the mitzvoth, the statutes, and the ordinances, which HaShem your God commanded (Moshah/Moses/Musa) to teach you, that you might comply-with/execute/carry-out/fulfill/do them in the land to which you go to possess... Hear, oh Israel; HaShem our God, HaShem is unique. And you must love HaShem your God, with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your might. And these words, which I command you this day, must be in your heart; and you must teach them diligently to your children, and must talk about them when you sit in your house, and when you walk by the path, and when you lie down, and when you rise up. And you must bind them like a sign on your hand (so you will often see them), and as a sign on your fore-head between your eyes (so others with you will often see them). And you must write them on the door-posts of your house, and on your gates (so those who enter or pass by will see them)." --- Deuteronomy/ דברים/ deberim/debrim/words 5-6

  "What takes effort, straining & struggling is... done without any sense of striving, of working or laboring, but 'comes of itself'.     Allied to this often is the feeling of grace that comes with smooth, easy, effortless, full functioning, when everything 'clicks' or 'is in the groove' or is 'in over-drive'.     One sees then the appearance of calm sureness & rightness, as if they knew exactly what they were doing, & were doing it wholeheartedly, without doubts, equivocations, hesitations, or partial withdrawal..." --- Abraham Maslow 1962 _Toward a Psychology of Being_ pg 100 (quoted in Marsha Sinetar 1995 _To Build the Life You Want, Create the Work You Love_ pg 188)
