[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You guys know less than nothing about economics. There are more jobs and better economies in places that have immigrant workers than in places that do not; not just more jobs for the immigrants but for everyone. There are no places with sustained economic growth without immigrant labor. [/quote]

sorry, you seemed to have failed the fundamental lesson of supply and demand.  The only people that benefit from large immigration are corporate CEOs.  There is no shortage of workers in US.   There are bunch of corporations working the political system for their own profits, at the expense of workers.

[b]"[To attract] workers, the employer may have to increase his wage offer. ... So when you hear an employer saying he needs immigrants to fill a "labor shortage'', remember what you are hearing: a cry for a labor subsidy to allow the employer to avoid the normal functioning of the labor market."
