Claiming a shortage of workers for the hospitality industry, Donald Trump's Mar-a-Lago club has requested and obtained permission to hire 70 foreign workers. The claim of a shortage of available workers is disputed:

'"We currently have 5,136 qualified candidates in Palm Beach County for various hospitality positions listed in the Employ Florida state jobs database," CareerSource spokesman Tom Veenstra said Friday.'

70 is a slight increase over last year, when 64 foreign workers were hired.

"Making America Great Again" by hiring foreigners? Perhaps what is required is higher pay, not foreigners.

    'Make America Great Act'

    - Any person or business making more than 1/330 millionth of America's GDP is fair game for American citizens to steal from, with no criminal charges brought against independent citizens choosing to steal from them. Criminal charges as well as RICO still apply for gangs, other corporations, and criminal enterprises which attempt to do the same, but independent citizens can steal to their heart's content :)

    Sounds like an excellent application of 'trickle down economics' to me, while enforcing the death by a thousand cuts for most corporations/wealthy individuals :)
