A tired load of crap that doesnt once address the most basic concept in economics: supply and demand. If you increase the supply of something such as labor and the demand doesn’t increase, the price will fall.

Thanks to importation of massive numbers of foreign laborers, the supply of labor has increased while the demand has remained fairly static. Hence the price has droppped. This article spends several paragraphs pointedly ignoring the elephant in the living room.

Not to mention the vastly longer hours worked by many white-collar cubicle mushrooms...55 or 60 hours work for 40 hours’ pay is rather common.

Thanks, RKBA.

Supply and Demand is the key.

I make that exact point several times a week at Free Republic, but to no avail.

A huge majority of Democrats, and a small majority of Republicans, still support massive LEGAL immigration.
