Increased legal immigration, as long as it is controlled leads to orderly increased supply of labor, which increases the degree of division of labor, which leads to increased productivity of labor. Also, increases in labor saving devices leads to increased productivity of labor.

The principle that increases in productivity of labor leads to increased average real wage rates (not money wage rates) and increased standard of living of the average worker, works best in the context of a free, rational, modern capitalistic economy.

Increased legal immigration, as long as it is controlled leads to orderly increased supply of labor, which increases the degree of division of labor, which leads to increased productivity of labor. Also, increases in labor saving devices leads to increased productivity of labor.

Which leads to decreased/depressed wages and socialism. Capitolism spared across a border-less world leads to fascism and/or socialism.

Current LEGAL immigration system is horse manure. It does not require skills, education, wealth or knowledge of English. All one needs is to be sponsored by another immigrant relative in US. It is called chain migration system. Most of these LEGAL immigrants end up on gov’t handouts.

Trump wants merit based legal immigration. Quite different that current system.
