More than 1.3 million native-born Americans lost a job in August as all net job growth continues going to non-citizens.
Data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics was charted by the financial publication Zero Hedge showing a loss of 1.325 million jobs for native-born Americans in August alone. By contrast, the number of foreign-born workers increased by 635,000 during the same period.
This continues a six year trend of native-born Americans losing jobs and only non-citizens gaining them.
And the figures mark an accelerating trend under the Biden-Harris administration. Those from overseas have benefitted from a more relaxed approach to immigration under the current government with the gap between native and foreign-born job creation widening by the month, as can be seen in the graphs below.
An interesting aspect of the first graph is how the two statistics compared under Joe Biden’s Presidency and that of Donald Trump’s. While relative job creation between the native vs. foreign born groups was largely similar under the previous administration, the disparity exploded once Biden took office in January 2021. As such, due to how lopsided the Biden so-called economic recovery has been, it’s now the case that since July 2018, there have been zero jobs created for native born Americans.
It’s concerning news for millions of unemployed Americans. Not only are more jobs going towards immigrants, but the number of full-time jobs has decreased by more than 1.6 million over the past year, therefore making it harder for millions to earn a survivable living.
Social media users could only point fingers at the administration which has overseen the widening discrepancies.
Others said that the majority of employment opportunities were going to certain groups.
