      yes why don't the factories hire the scab labor AND retain the existing labor while paying both more than before, that sounds extremely tenable

      1) refugees are not "scab labor" and 2) it's perfectly tenable if demand for what the factory produces is growing

      fascinating what do you call it when people won't work jobs for a given pay rate so cheaper workers get brought in from elsewhere to do the job

      granted that refugees qua refugees are not scab labor, but once they are being deliberately sought after to depress labor costs, well....

          I noticed! which is why I'm wondering why you won't apply the same principle to labor costs

          Mostly I just think hiring refugees is good ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

          Maybe when unemployment is zero

          No, hiring refugees is good in general. Hiring them because you can pay them less due to a dire situation is pretty disgusting (although not uncommon)

          Can you provide any particular reason why hiring refugees is better than hiring from the existing unemployed labor force?

          Any particular reason why "it's good in general?"

          Because people fleeing oppression or disaster should be able to work and eat as well?
