Basic supply and demand laws.
You wouldn’t believe the liberal women who I’ve argued with saying immigration has nothing to do with: wages, housing costs, healthcare costs.
Like they are 100+ sure and you are a drooling, imbecile to believe otherwise.

What you mean is that companies illegally hiring illegal labor failed to anticipate the "market correction" brought about by immigration enforcement.
Being good entrepreneurs, they will adjust or go out of business. "Creative destruction" and all that; or, perhaps employer goose meets labor gander.
