Equal Occupational Fatality Day 2029

“Based on the BLS data for 2017, the next “Equal Occupational Fatality Day” will occur more than 10 years from now ­­– on May 3, 2029.

An article which flies in the face of the facts, the truth and the consequences of mass migration from undeveloped countries into the West. Consequences which are already glaringly obvious in Europe.
You decide. The article is below the fold.
