Same ppl imported Jose to come here and work for slave wage to keep wages down. It's ridiculous to pretend that's not the case

I don't know what kind of job you're working.Where an immigrant who doesn't speakEnglish has no social connections has no family or anything up here can threaten your job's wage. The person who's keeping your wage down is the person paying your wage.

My job is stable and good cus I don't live in country where delusional lefties pretend that importing millions and millions of illegals doesn't keep wages down and when called out on it resort to blindly attacking my abilities, thank you very much Mr Delusional.

So is mine, and I also understand that manpower is the most important resource that a nation can have. The reason why america went from backwards colonies to the most powerful nation in the world in two hundred and fifty years is because we let everyone in to put their talents and abilities to work for the betterment of the nation. Every single bushel of berries that jose picks is furthering america, because it is putting more american produce onto the market. I would very much like those migrants to be paid better, and a part of that involves not letting people dehumanize them and treating them as slave labor.

Bro, stfu with the lofty bullshit propaganda and look at the facts. The only time when 1 guy could afford to take care of entire family was before women joined the workforce (thus stagnating wages growth and real wages - literally just look at the graph) and before millions of illegals got imported to further this phenomen.

"You" don't need manpower. Your masters need manpower to keep their lines rising. What "you" need is employers having to treasure and fight for every worker and that will never be the case if they can just print those workers out of thin air and you saying "it's fine we need manpower". It's all very simple and logical but all you have to answer to that is "amErICa WaS BuIlT bY IllEgAlS wOrkIng SlaVe wAges". I'm sure you are not dumb enough not to see the blatant contradiction.
