Trump’s ICE Just Wrecked Massive Business Investment Deal for the U.S.

You seem really confused. As usual.

I don’t think it is ok for Trump or anyone to support foreign companies breaking the last on the name of profits.

Speaking of confusion, why do you keep saying this? In the name of profits? Everything a company does is seeking profit. You already know this, yes?

They didn't think they were breaking the law. There are gray areas in the visa process. That said, the Korean workers weren't here "in the name of profit." They were here to set up a plant. The very thing Trump demands.

And what if the company loses money? Is it okay to break the law in the name of losing money?

Confusion, indeed.

Hyundai was given tax incentives to build a plant in the US in order to give US workers good paying jobs. Hyundai then used South Korean management to filter in illegal South Korean workers in order to fill those jobs, not US workers. This is EXACTLY what Trump means when he says the US is getting screwed over by supposed "allies".

What exactly does Trump mean here?

Trump offered to let detained Korean workers stay in US, but almost all heading home

U.S. President Donald Trump offered to allow hundreds of South Korean workers arrested during an immigration raid to stay in the United States, but only one has opted to remain, South Korean officials said on Thursday.

I bet John Deere wishes they had enough money, during this Trump administration, to open up MORE new factories in foreign countries and so they could send a bunch of trainers over there.

Other than Mexico and India of course.

That you pretend to not get the point is not surprising. I just don’t know why you think playing dumb is a winning argument.

Time for you to back up your claim. Let’s see your evidence that they didn’t know they were breaking the law. Sorry but you making that claim means nothing.
Do you think SK lawyers are not smart enough to figure out US law. Or do you think a company as large as Hyundai doesn’t have a bunch of lawyers working for them.

I get you are desperately trying to throw shit at the wall in the hopes something sticks but you are really just embarrassing yourself.
But don’t worry. I am sir if it gets bad enough for you, you can always post some stupid off topic post about some irrelevant bs happening where you live. That will definitely help you out.

Companies seek profit. I guess I overestimated you.

Again, is it okay to break the law if the company loses money?

He means that he was willing to let them stay for a while to train Americans to do the jobs, after which they would be sent home.
 
braindrain said:
And yet you support foreign companies breaking US law to bring in illegal workers I’ve using US workers.

Sounds like your support for unions and the American worker stops the moment it might mean you can’t be in the opposite side as Trump.

So clearly you don’t actually support workers.

I'm not interested in your fan fiction. Good luck finding someone who is.

As I noted in one of the other threads on this topic, this scheme has been an ongoing issue for years. It's been an issue with Koreans for at least five years, and before that it was eastern European laborers.


With what?

With, you know, any kind of violation of the law?

Seems like the sort of thing people concerned about "enforcing the law" should care about, but you do you.

I'm fine with removing the illegal workers instead of putting them in prison. More should be done about the employers, but I don't control such things.

That you think anything there was a surrender just shows the weak grasp on reality you have.

So not going to back up your claim while you demand I do huh. What a shock.

No shit companies seek profits. How long did it take you to figure that out.

Do you know what a strawman is.


Still no irrelevant nonsense about the area where you live. That’s too bad.

Babble.

Adding "seeking profit" to a company's hiring practices, over and over, is repetitive redundancy. Meaningless drivel.

Between that and you proving over and over that the very simple point still sailed way over your head not a great look for you.

Your babble is boring me to death. If you can't figure out what's going on, I can't help you.

My comment is on your repetitive redundancy. Foolish debate tactic.

Still running huh. Do you think anyone who reads this can’t see that you made a claim. hot called on it and keep running away from backing it up.
Actually you may think that. Reality and you have never had a real good relationship.

You know that is an even more foolish debate tactics.
Making up claims that you can’t back up. Like you did here. And that you think this little boy off whining you are doing is deflecting from that fact is hilarious.

'Like a military operation': Koreans describe anxiety after US immigration raid

South Korean workers who returned home on Friday after being detained by U.S. immigration authorities described their horror over the raid at their workplace at a Hyundai battery plant in Georgia and their relief at being reunited with their families.

US President back-pedaling furiously after his administration treated some innocent hard-working Koreans like they were innocent hard-working Latinos.

Hyundai usually hires people for these projects in Korea, and then ship them to places were factories are built all over the world.

As Japanese auto makers did back in the 80s. As, I bet, BMW did for the US plants. Etc, etc, etc.
 
We sure showed those South Koreans! How dare they try to come over here and spend billions of dollars.

Go spend your money somewhere else!!
