It is fallacious to assume our unemployment problem is caused by too many workers, or can be alleviated by reducing opportunities for those who want to work.
I'm reminded of the FDR 'brain trust' burning crops and slaughtering livestock in the Great Depression in an effort to reduce supply, drive up prices, and thereby 'save' the economy.
“It is fallacious to assume our unemployment problem is caused by too many workers, or can be alleviated by reducing opportunities for those who want to work.”
So...if illegals weren’t doing construction, citizens also would not?
If there are 20 jobs, and you have 25 citizens who want work, and 2 of the 20 jobs are being held by non-citizens, how does that help the 7 unemployed citizens?
