My bad, it was 2006.
- bonsai_spool 4mo ago"Because Mexican immigrants have much less education than the average U.S. worker, they increase the supply of less-skilled labor, driving down the wages of the worst-paid Americans." That doesn't sound like the claim you made. It is also a prima facie reasonable claim to make.
- whoknowsidont 4mo agoThat source isn't even able to directly lay out the claim, it spends 5 paragraphs IMPLYING Krugman changed his position for hand-wavy political reasons. But lacks any direct evidence that he actually did so. It misquotes things and really grasps at straws to make a point, holy moly. It's so disingenuous lmao.
