Trump Gets to Work

During these last two weeks of January, President Donald Trump has been busy implementing his policies. I recall he sent American soldiers to the border to make sure the cartel gangs could not get their drugs across. I think he also told the Colombian government that he would increase import tariffs if they didn't allow their illegal migrants to be returned to their country. He's not messing about, he was serious about what he said.


It was while this was happening that a powerful storm called Erowin(welsh Name) moved across the north side of my island nation. It damaged buildings and toppled many trees. Some people were fatally injured by the storm. At the same time I also noticed at night the planet Mars was visible at the same time as Venus. I could see both the planets. I think Jupiter and Saturn were also visible. Mars looks like a star with a pink hue in the sky. Venus looks like a small version of the moon but always sits on the horizon at sunrise and dawn. 

I don't hate illegal immigrants, I just don't like the side effects of having many illegals. If a letting agent posts a property and 20 or 30 people show up, they take the property off the market and put the property back up again a week later at a much higher price. The high demand for property makes the property more expensive. People tell me this is not true but I have seen it happen with my own eyes.  This also makes commercial properties more expensive. The other problem is the pressure to increase wages in low paying jobs goes down. Warehouse workers get smaller pay rises when there are many immigrants because there isn't a shortage of workers. If there were a slight shortage of workers, companies would increase their wages more to keep their staff. This doesn't happen in an overcrowded area.
