Do you not see any issues with arbitrarily assuming that a self reported number is double the reported number and then working off of that information?
Just read that. It says 4% of the illegal immigrants work in farms. Not that 4% of the farm work force is illegal immigrants. So out of 100 immigrants only 4 of them will work in farms, as the others will be in construction, housekeeping, ect. I don't know, might have read it wrong. My English not so good.

You may feel that you speak the English language very well, but in terms of writing, you come across as having a very basis level of competence. “I am better educated than you”, quite frankly sounds like your aren’t “better educated” than the person that you are addressing.

Despite having obtained a greater level of education than “Pothead”, you struggle with constructing your sentences in a meaningful fashion that represents your supposed level of education.



I was just fucking with him man. Don't take it so serious. I don't care what you or anybody else thinks about my education. The dude was rude and I gave him a little of his own.

Good points. Yet we both agree, illegal immigrant workers are almost certainly under reported. I would assume you could double the numbers and they would be more accurate.
Yes, but to assume is just that. I'd still stand by people that look into it through calculations and data. Not by what a pothead says.

Lol you read that shit wrong. 4% of all immigrants work in farm jobs. Estimates have the US with 10.7 million undocumented people. And that’s a conservative estimate. Trump says it’s close to 30 million. 4%of 10 million is how many undocumented people work in the farm industry.

Do social workers in British Columbia not study Sociology? /s You should know the benefits, pitfalls, and limitations of self reporting in regards to surveys and questionnaires. I took “SOCI 260A” last term and it was addressed in the first chapter. It was the easiest academic course that I took in my life. Literally, an Oilfield BSO (basic safety orientation) is more difficult.

Step up your game, Gusto. This is your profession.





















I am aware of the pitfalls of self reporting, hence why I pointed them out.

Also, sociology courses are not a prerequisite for a BSW degree.

With that said, I have taken a handful of Sociology courses (towards a BA in Criminology) throughout the years and have found most of them interesting... Other than the upper level stats courses, I hated both qualitative and quantitative.

What are you studying in school? Sociology as an elective tells me you are taking a bachelor of arts program, question is, what is your major?

And if you're clearing 7+ grand per month in your current occupation, wny are you looking to switch it up?

Did you not see how emphasized I was making an assumption?

Based off the definition of assumption and the fact I pointed out I was making one, yes I am aware.

You may feel that you speak the English language very well, but in terms of writing, you come across as having a very basis level of competence. “I am better educated than you”, quite frankly sounds like your aren’t “better educated” than the person that you are addressing.

Glad to see that Grammarly subscription is finally paying off.

Giuliani: 'I never said there was no collusion' between the Trump campaign and Russia
President Trump's personal attorney, Rudy Giuliani, said Wednesday that he "never said there was no collusion" between the Trump campaign and Russia.

“I never said there was no collusion between the campaign. Or between people in the campaign," Giuliani said on CNN's "Cuomo Prime Time," after host Chris Cuomo said it was false to suggest there was no collusion between Trump's presidential campaign and the Kremlin.
Fox's Griffin: Was told by diplomat that Syria attack was 'direct result' of US pullout decision
Fox News national security correspondent Jennifer Griffin reported that a senior foreign diplomat had told the network that the deadly suicide attack on U.S. troops in Syria was a "direct result of the announcement made by President Trump that U.S. forces are pulling out."

“U.S. allies remain up in arms about the U.S. announcing it is pulling out of Syria," Griffin reported on Fox News chief anchor Shepard Smith's newscast on Wednesday afternoon.

"A senior foreign diplomat tells Fox News, ‘This attack today is a direct result of the announcement made by President Trump that U.S. forces are pulling out. These troops had a bulls-eye on them when the president telegraphed that he was ordering a pullout’,” she added.
Pence declares 'ISIS has been defeated' on the same day as deadly Syria attack
On the same day that an ISIS-claimed attack killed US service members in Syria, Vice President Mike Pence declared that "the caliphate has crumbled and ISIS has been defeated."
Pence's remark to the Global Chiefs of Mission conference at the US State Department came about an hour after the US-led coalition confirmed that American troops had been killed in an explosion in Manbij.
4 Americans killed in Syria attack. ISIS claims responsibility
ISIS has claimed responsibility for a deadly explosion that killed four Americans -- two US service members, a defense contractor and a Department of Defense civilian -- in the Syrian city of Manbij on Wednesday, according to the US military.
Trump was warned in Iraq that ISIS was not defeated in Syria
Military commanders warned President Donald Trump on December 26 during his surprise visit to Iraq that -- despite his claims to the contrary -- ISIS was not entirely defeated in Syria.
People familiar with the President's reaction said the conversation was eye-opening for a leader who days earlier claimed the terror group was defeated "badly" in the country.

Wall Street Journal: Michael Cohen paid thousands to rig polls in Trump's favor

Poll-Rigging for Trump and Creating @WomenForCohen: One IT Firm’s Work Order
According to the paper, Cohen paid John Gauger, the owner of RedFinch Solutions LLC, between $12,000 and $13,000 for activities related to Trump's campaign, including "trying unsuccessfully to manipulate two online polls in Mr. Trump's favor"
In making the claim, Gauger told the paper he wasn't fully paid for the work, though the Journal said Cohen was reimbursed $50,000 -- the amount the two originally agreed on for Gauger's services -- by the Trump Organization. Gauger, according to the paper, also received a boxing glove "worn by a Brazilian mixed-martial arts fighter" along with the cash payment.
