Imagine being a blatant apologist for the elites latest scheme to undermine cost of labor. "But this isn't slavery, this time the scab labor want to come here to work". Roman empire, Antebellum South: Wage suppression - the sign of an industry/empire thats given up innovating

Why does your industry deserve to stay 'profitable/on the top' if it no longer innovates? I thought capitalism was supposed to promote turnover at the top, not consolidation? If you can't turn a profit without importing the 3rd world, maybe it's time to step aside?

There is literally no economic argument for immigration. "but muh skills shortage": yeah? Fix that by paying more - benefits middle class, costs the rich. "but muh jobs Americans won't do": yeah? Fix that by paying more - benefits lower class, costs the rich.

Are you talking about ilegal immigration?Or legal? Are you talking about the wave of immigration a few decades ago by people eager to assimilate, widely accepted and successful? Or are you talking about uncontrolled immigration of masses of people with no intention to assimilate?

Legal immigration and "migrants" are two entirely different things. Stop trying to confuse the population and obscure the truth on this fact.

>"People with vastly different values and morals living together is a good thing." Why?

There is a distinct difference between selective “immigration” in an orderly & controlled manner... vs. large number of migrants flooding your boarder which is invasion w/o guns. We should help eliminate those obstacles so those migrants have no reason to abandon their home.

There was a time when United States had few people & benefited greatly from Italian , German or Irish “migrants/refugees” to help build a new nation. But that is another time, and different circumstances. Uncontrolled population growth created political instability of today.
