I don’t see it that way. If our economy is expanding and needs more workers than can be internally supplied, then immigrant workers are helpful to the economy. It doesn’t mean wages of current workers will decrease. On the contrary, a shortage of workers would stifle our growth which would hurt us all, especially as we compete with other countries.

It’s like the money supply. Sometimes more money put into circulation doesn’t create inflation.

So much stupidity and ignorance of supply and demand. Where do I start?
