Immigration is just a wedge issue-- a means to an end.
The point is to use propaganda to pit half of the population against the other half. Divisive politics in a nutshell! As the saying goes, "divide and conquer."
- candiodari 9y agoI don't know how you can say this. Go and try to get a low end job in a European capital, and then come back with an answer to "do immigrants directly lower the quality of life for the urban poor ?". The answer, without any doubt, is yes. Now you could say that the economy must simply grow to compensate, but it hasn't been doing that for decades now. Exactly when will this happen ? Likewise, government support has been shrinking while taxes have been growing. Solve this problem and you make immigrants a solvable issue. Don't solve this and you might as well try to paint the sky a bright shade of green. Don't solve it for another decade, perhaps two and there will be civil war.
