What amazes me is how so few people connect low wages with all the immigration. Shrink the labor pool, and employers would have to pay more. Supply and demand. Yet unions and others of their ilk’ support uncontrolled immigration.
YOU NAILED IT!
Hammer met nail!
“What amazes me is how so few people connect low wages with all the immigration.”
Here in NJ a lot of Americans have made the connection; a lot of union guys in the trades are sitting on their couches all day while illegal aliens do the work they used to do (for literally half the hourly wage). Once it became clear that neither party would do anything about it (and would in fact obstruct any attempts to rectify it), those Americans that could packed up & left.
