Especially when we import millions of low-skill / no-skill people every year to compete with the poor people who were born here.
Works great for the upper classes - keeps the price down for those fancy Michelin dinners.

- astrange 2y agoImmigrants do not compete with native workers because they have complementary skills (like different native languages). The evidence is very very strong that immigration does not decrease wages. It generally increases them because it provides new demand, though that's not guaranteed.
