Vivek also criticized the U.S. for prioritizing social conformity and leisure—citing examples like celebrating brainless jocks and prom queens over the math olympiad champ—and urged a cultural reset toward "hard work over laziness" and "nerdiness over conformity."
He is, unfortunately, correct. The "native white trash" of America are generally dumb, ignorant and from peasant background, having hailed from the boonies of Europe. The only successes that the US rightfully claims are those made by immigrants from all over the world, including from those the dumb racist asshole in the White Outhouse calls "Shithole countries". Through the short history of this country, the cycle has been repeating itself: Every wave of immigrants propels the country forward, before the white trash xenophobic morons begin to expel and deport immigrants. A decade goes by, and suddenly Americans realize they are falling behind Japan, Korea, India, Brazil, China or other countries. That is when they revert to begging immigrants to return and reinvigorate the country's economy with innovation, new ideas and technology. It's a cycle that has been going on since the birth of this country.
Why is Cincinnati running out of workers? Where are Trump's fine white trash idiots to fill these jobs? They probably are all on government welfare checks (which they blame immigrants for), and are addicted to illicit drugs (which they also blame immigrants for). Vivek was right: "White Trash" Americans are lazy bums who started out exploiting the free labor of African slaves, then the cheap labor of Chinese immigrants to build the railroad, then the labor of every immigrant wave to build the factories, and lately the labor of educated immigrants who built Silicone Valley, sequenced the Human Genome, sent rockets to space, etc.
Very soon after Trump's devastation of the US economy, the American government will embark on a huge campaign of re-opening its doors to foreign immigrants - from the scientists and engineers down to the strawberry and lettuce pickers - to re-stock itself with smart and hard-working people.
Have you noticed the skyrocketing number of food and drug recalls in recent weeks? This is because farmers are cutting corners without immigrant workers, and Trump's deregulations have savaged all the quality controls, from CDC's drugs and vaccines to the food you put in your children's mouths. Why are there more than 4,000 measles cases in the US, the highest in 35 years? Because of that moron RFK Jr. who convinced dumb white trash Americans people that vaccines are bad for their children.

Cincinnati can't afford Trump's mass deportation push | Opinion

A $222.5 million bill would dominate debate at Cincinnati City Hall. Yet that is Cincinnati's estimated share of Washington's mass-deportation campaign: about $2,308 per Cincinnati filer owing federal income tax after credits.
The figure comes from the Economic Policy Institute's Cost of Deportations Calculator. It begins with the National Priorities Project's estimate that Washington plans to spend $268.9 billion on mass deportation during Trump's second term, then allocates that cost according to each community's share of federal income taxes.
Because the IRS does not publish city tax totals, EPI apportions ZIP-code data among Census places; $222.5 million is an estimate, not a City Hall appropriation. Local officials cannot redirect it. It is the bill Cincinnati taxpayers will help finance before counting the economic losses that follow when workers, consumers and taxpayers disappear.
The number is especially striking because Cincinnati has tried to draw a different line. In February, City Council restricted federal immigration agencies from using city property as staging areas or accessing city camera, drone and license plate reader data for civil enforcement except as required by law or a court. Cincinnati can protect its property and public-safety tools. It cannot keep residents' federal taxes out of the dragnet.
That mismatch matters because the region is short of working-age people. The Cincinnati Regional Chamber ranks the region 17th among 20 peer metros in its share of residents ages 25 to 54. Only 38% of residents fall within those years.
Hamilton County's figures sharpen the contradiction. The county gained just 559 residents between 2024 and 2025. International migration added about 3,000 people, while domestic migration cost the county roughly 4,700. Without newcomers from abroad, that modest growth would have become a decline.
Not every international migrant is undocumented; the foreign-born workforce includes naturalized citizens and people with lawful status. But an enforcement campaign this broad reaches beyond those ultimately removed. It destabilizes mixed-status families and employers, while the climate it creates can deter lawful workers and international students who have other places to go.
Immigrants already account for 7.6% of Greater Cincinnati's employed workforce. Their leading fields include education and health services, manufacturing, and professional and business services. Driving workers away does not create nurses, machinists, or engineers. It leaves jobs unfilled, reduces consumer spending and narrows the tax base.
Supporters deserve a response. The federal government has a duty to enforce immigration law, and people who present genuine dangers should be priorities. The Department of Homeland Security also argues that unauthorized immigration imposes public costs. It told Axios that traditional deportations cost roughly $18,000 each, while its self-deportation program saves about $13,000 per removal.
But making each removal cheaper does not make an indiscriminate workforce policy economically sound. As of July 11, 70.6% of people in ICE detention had no criminal conviction. Many immigration cases involve civil status violations, such as overstaying a visa, rather than violent crime.
U.S. Rep. Greg Landsman and U.S. Sens. Jon Husted and Bernie Moreno should demand transparent accounting, focus enforcement on genuine public-safety threats and expand workable legal pathways for longtime residents and workers this region needs.
Cincinnati was right to keep local property and surveillance systems from becoming extensions of a civil immigration dragnet. Congress should bring the same discipline to federal spending. Washington should not make Cincinnati pay twice: once in taxes and again in lost workers, customers and neighbors.
