Not weighing in, just trying to clarify.
- drup86 7y agoThe problem is that all the low hanging fruit of offshoring labor has already been picked, so to bring up that point again and again is disingenuous. We're talking about jobs that have not been able to be offshored for some reason or another. If amazon could offshore these jobs to some low cost country they'd do that in a heartbeat but these are residual low skilled jobs that simply couldn't be easily outsourced. And the poster above is arguing in favor of more low skilled immigration to dilute the power of the low skilled worker.
