For him it's a lot of money, in India it's worth triple.
But for an American it's probably a lower end salary for the profession, all because the immigrants ruin the job market.
Not to mention that money doesn't stay here to build our own economy. Billions leave this country to benefit other economies and there is no incentive to restrict the outflow of their own citizens.
It is time that those who's intention is not to assimilate and truly become American, should be more restricted in immigrating here. If they do, it should have time limits on how long they can stay. It is not good for us economically or societally. It used to be that immigrants who came to the US wanted to become Americans and raise their own children to be Americans and love this country. My own family desired to be part of this great country. One of the happiest day of my grandfather's life was the day he became an American citizen. He cried. That is not the case for many that have recently come here - especially under Biden. Most come purely for economic reasons and have no desire to belong and participate in this American experiment. Some even hate us and work to destroy us.
We need a period of pull back from the failed immigration policies of the past multiple decades to regain some control on who is here. Then, we can move forward with more intelligent immigration policies that enhance the country as a whole. Policies that do not put added strain on the taxpayers and that actually contribute to the US. We are a nation of immigrants after all, and when handled better, the process can enrich us rather than destroy us. I have heard from many foreigners that America's greatest asset is her people. That is a true statement. We just need to be more selective on who those people are.
The initial purpose of allowing immigration was to accept those few exceptional people that are scarce in the country.
Sadly our society is full of losers that won't accept the reality that smart or exceptional people are better and get preferential treatment. So immigration became generalized to everyone and now it's not allowed to say that retarded 3rd worlder cannot get in.
After all any government has one big problem, to give jobs to those that are not smart, because there are never enough low level jobs for everyone. The moment you add 3rd worlders that accept lower wages you make the problem worse for your low level citizens. Mass immigration was planned to suppress wages, that's the truth.
Exactly. Thank you for specifying it. My response was more implied. This unrestricted immigration of uneducated, low-skilled "3rd worlders," as you put it, take jobs away from Americans who cannot compete in those areas of the labor market which are primarily dominated by those foreigners. It does drive overall wages down in the end. These low-skilled laborers, in coordination, work as teams to keep Americans out in order to keep a monopoly for their own. They have networks. I have personally witnessed this with my own eyes. Americans are pushed out. Not only due to the low wages, but also because those non-English speaking cliques seem to work in concert with each other to either stop an American from being hired, or they make working conditions unbearable for the American in order to force them to leave. Business also needs to be reigned in for continuing to allow this to take place.
The quotas for low-skilled workers back in the day, was also limited. As you stated, we had policies that specified preferences for more intelligent and educated migrants. There were unspoken bans on Muslims entering on anything more than a temporary work visa. As far as permanent residence status was concerned, Muslims, along with some other groups, were seen as incompatible with American society. Our previous policies favored European migrants due to the fact that they fit better with the culture and were more easily assimilated. Sadly, those policies were discarded in the name of "fairness" - to our own destruction.
Also, there were health restrictions. If you were sick, or had some other debilitating illness or condition, a person was denied entry. You had to have sponsors that could guarantee that an immigrant was not going to be a burden to the public. The sponsor had to take financial responsibility. Family unification was not a thing. Everyone had to immigrate on their own standing - not simply because of family relationships.
My great-grandmother came close to not being allowed in because she had limited eyesight. She could hardly see. After multiple evaluations, her vision issues were deemed not severe enough to bar her entry. It was a good thing because my great-grandfather stated that if one member of the family could not get into the country, none of them would enter. No one now wants to speak the dirty part out loud; that we are allowing people into this country that are collapsing our medical system and not paying for it.
The bottom line is that our immigration policies, or lack thereof, have been a net negative for us as a country. I am just thankful that finally someone in control is stepping up and doing something about it to reverse this dead end road instead of just giving it lip service. This is what I voted for. Thank you for your reply.
I cannot stress this enough! As a small business owner myself, I didn't recognize how much illegal immigrants impact small businesses. The bigger companies/corporations are in on it as well. This is why they are able to make "record" profits year after year. They are charging us out of the ass and paying the illegal immigrants pennies (plus the complimentary bag of oranges...had a project manager of a multi-million dollar company tell me that). The second part of the grift is that they know illegals may use some of their learned skills on the side... Also for pennies... Which then hurts small businesses because though we can beat the larger companies' prices, we CANT beat the illegals' prices. So the larger companies end up with record profits and minimal competition. The illegals are able to legitimately add to their income and send money home to live like kings if they return.... While Americans have no place to work, have little chance to compete, and with prices that are compounding and headed in the wrong direction.
The average person is retarded and cannot see the big picture, they only see the "poor underpaid" Indian that loses his job and can't feed his family.
In addition all the immigrants get help from the government that it's equivalent to 1/3 of the salary so they live with 1 and 1/3 of the salary compared to the American who doesn't receive welfare from the government since he is a citizen.
As you said, add the side job and the immigrant live with 1 and a half of the salary.
In my experience the companies create a chain of work where they put some American every few immigrants that are bad at their job, so he has to compensate for all of them or get shitted by the boss and lose their job.
There are so many level in which immigrant work is just used to exploit the work of the citizens who are actually productive.
I worked in logistics for a couple of years and immigrant could not even count up to 10, picking 10 boxes when the shipment said 3 boxes.
