Nearly 98,000 hospitality jobs disappeared between December 2024 and December 2025, international visitors to the United States fell by 2.5 million, and tourism revenue dropped $1.2 billion, according to a report by Unite Here, the US's largest hospitality workers' union.

All we did is eat some faces and now EVERYONE apparently thinks we are Leopards!?!

How is that even remotely fair to the US.

We will have to use our military might to stimulate tourism...

Reports from other industries describe similar labor disruptions. In South Texas, builders recently told The Wall Street Journal that repeated immigration raids have left projects idle and workers unwilling to return. "You can pay me whatever you want, but I'm not going to go work there," one contractor quoted a worker as saying.

Ok sorry but what kind of shit work ethic is that? You don't want to work for trash wages just because we might randomly ruin your life to satisfy our raging bigotry boner?

Oh, so they didn't actually take our jobs, they are simply doing the jobs most Americans aren't willing to do.

Hey, let's not beat ourselves up about it, how could we have known?

The deserved consequences of inhumane, unconstitutional and illegal actions arrive - cry about it bigots

hey mate, what does this have to do with the climate crisis?

Societal Collapse

The US is existentially reliant on tourism and immigrant labour, this has everything to do with collapse.

I assume it is on purpose so that when people declare bankruocy and close businesses, close farms and sell off land a billionaire is there waiting to purchase it. cheaply.

Not necessarily, fascism is sometimes too dumb to even actually have a defined objective.

how is a reduction in labour due to a deliberate us policy decision societal collapse?

you have biosphere and climate change linked to societal collapse in the community name, not stupid us government makes decision that reduces us workforce availability

how is a reduction in labour due to a deliberate us policy decision societal collapse?

Because the US is existentially reliant on tourism and immigrant labour.

you think the us is going to collapse because of a reduction in labour to build houses and tourism?

Do I think without immigrant labour and tourism that the US will collapse? Yes, absolutely, it is specifically doing that as we speak if you hadn't noticed?
