It’s all a big cost-shifting scheme.
Their wages are lower than citizens’ wages, because some of the costs (free medical, dodging taxes with stolen identity, schools for their kids, etc) are shifted from the wage payer to the taxpayer.
Say that even louder would you? Because it is spot on!
I agree, but have you not just described the socialist paradise? The money flows to the government who then distribute some of it back to the enslaved population. Control baby! Control!
Which has been summarized as: "Socialize the losses, privatize the gains."
How can illegal aliens live on 11 dollars per hour in California where the cost of living is astronomical and still have enough money left over to send a couple hundred bucks a month home to Mexico?
Because they are getting very generous California welfare payments, often under multiple false identities.
Living off the EBT card is a way of life in California
And th price of new homes are skyrocketing in CA.
Exactly. That’s why it’s people are leaving in droves and it has the highest poverty rate in the country. CA. libs have killed the “Golden Goose”, that was the Golden State.
Exactly!
“Blaine Taylor, the whistleblower, said the construction industry in California once offered a starting wage of about $45 an hour in the late 1980s. Fast-forward to 2018 — nearly two decades into when illegal aliens began flooding the industry — he now says that wages have fallen by more than half, standing at just $11 an hour.”
That is a actually a drop of more than three quarters and when adjusted for inflation eleven an hour now can’t be more than at most an eighth of what forty five an hour was worth in the late 1980s. They are saying that construction workers in California have gone from middle class to poverty.
>>Their wages are lower than citizens’ wages, because some of the costs (free medical, dodging taxes with stolen identity, schools for their kids, etc) are shifted from the wage payer to the taxpayer.
This is the intent of the globalists and of Wall St itself. It is why the ultra-wealthy are almost all champions of Progressivism.
They want to be able to use the government to supplement the workers’ low wages, so that when the standard of living for the working class “needs” to be lowered, the power of government can do it with the stroke of pen and it is uniformly applied across the whole spectrum of workers (to end wage competition).
Socialism does not create uniform wealth. It only creates uniform poverty.
