killowater84 , 1 month ago https://www.nber.org/system/files/working_papers/w32389/w32389.pdf Basically all published research on this subject indicates that migrant labour has very little effect on native wages. This makes sense, because a migrant is a human being, not a machine. That is, they do not just produce, they also consume. Incidentally, I'm very gratified by people here not tolerating this sort of fash adjacent rhetoric. Shit made reddit intolerable.
