I don't hate business. In fact there is nothing better than free unmanipulated markets to properly allocate goods and services. I hate artifical market manipulation.

Isn't having a govt. mandated ceiling on the supply of labor, a market manipulation, that you abhor.

Not if that ceiling is defined as "everybody who is here legally".

Otherwise shouldn't we import about a half billion Chinese to bring down our "artificially high wages" that would correct the "problem" quick.

A nation without borders is not a nation. Maybe that doesn't matter to a lawless libertarian.

Saying the price of labor is too high is just the flip side of saying profits are too high.

Too sides of the same coin. The coin that thinks they can manage the economy better than the free market.

There is a govt. mandated ceiling. It's called national borders. It's called citizenship.
