I’m not claiming a labor shortage. There are plenty of workers, both legal and illegal. All I’m saying is loose immigration enforcement forces companies to eventually hire lower wage illegals or risk being underbid on contracts. The law breaking companies get away with it, and that puts law abiding companies at a competitive disadvantage. We must control immigration to protect Americans.
Again, the claim by the article and the industry is LABOR SHORTAGE... which by the evidence is total crap claim.
Arguing about illegals and lack of enforcement forcing the industry to cheat is a separate discussion.... Just like the H1B and IT... there IS NO LABOR SHORTAGE... just industries unwilling to raise wages to attract workers.
