"Globalist-mentality financiers who benefit?" Yes, quite right. After being told by these people, since 1965, that I will benefit greatly from this enormous influx of immigrants, I am still waiting for my turn to benefit. The lawyers are benefitting. So are manufacturers who want to cut their costs, and let's not forget the fruit-growers and others in agriculture. Unfortunately, my costs - that is, taxes - are rising. They are driving land prices up so housing is more expensive, they are increasing congestion, water supplies and infrastructure are more expensive and let's not forget that, since they are socialists, they don't mind voting against some of my freedoms. And Mr. Jeeves is right - they're not going to vote for Republicans no matter what.

Amen.
I wished I saved it, but there was some months back a Wall Street Journal article (no surprise) saying that the housing "market" was benefitted by immigration because at the time the super-hype of the 80's was petering out, here came the immigrants to save the day! And screw 95% of other Americans.
Enough is enough.
