[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Joe No Borders Biden has done all he can to expand legal AND illegal immigration.

A Vote for Joe is a vote to give US workers the middle finger.

And this shows how pro-migration the Biden administration is. A U.S. reader, one of the American high-tech types injured by the HXXB program, follows the Indian press and sent me a link to a recent news item in the Economic Times, which said: “The new US Consulate in Hyderabad is now the biggest Consulate in South Asia [it covers 12 acres] with 54 [visa] windows as against 16 in the Paigah Palace earlier. It will process 3,500 visa applications.”

That’s a huge increase, from 16 to 54. Although the last line of the quotation does not say so, let’s assume that the 3,500 visa applications is for a day. If that is the case, then each window would handle just under 65 applications a day, or eight an hour, or one every 7.5 minutes.

cant afford to help US low wage workers but can afford to increase visa processing for Indian HXXB entry level workers. [/quote]

Literally every credible empirical analysis finds that immigrants - both legal and illegal - do not suppress native-born wages, and, in many instances, [i]increase[/i] native-born wages.[/quote]

factually wrong

our policies continue to screw low wage African Americans.  and we have known this for decades.

people need good jobs to thrive in our capitalism

The 1980-2000 immigrant influx, therefore, generally 'explains' about 20 to 60 percent of the decline in wages, 25 percent of the decline in employment, and about 10 percent of the rise in incarceration rates among blacks with a high school education or less

Almost everybody knows that in the past 40 years, the real wages and job prospects for low-skilled men, especially low-skilled minority workers, have fallen. And there is evidence, that a rising tide of immigration is  to blame. Now, a new NBER study suggests that immigration has more far-reaching consequences than merely depressing wages and lowering employment rates of low-skilled African-American males: its effects also appear to push some would-be workers into crime and, later, into prison.

When the supply of workers goes up, the price that firms have to pay to hire workers goes down. Wage trends over the past half-century suggest that a 10 percent increase in the number of workers with a particular set of skills probably lowers the wage of that group by at least 3 percent.

Immigration redistributes wealth from those who compete with immigrants to those who use immigrants—from the employee to the employer.
