Why More Immigration Is Bad for America
"Rather than have a million legal immigrants plus more than a 300,000 more job seekers coming over on temporary work visas year in and year out without a pause, we should ask the simple question, do we need any immigrants?"
All of this brings us back to where I started. Why do we have immigration? The single principle underlying every category in the very complex web of statutes and regulations comprising modern immigration law is that it’s good for employers. It might be nice to unite families. But that benefits only the immigrants themselves. It’s not a national policy. Cheap labor is, and every employer understands it well. They all support more immigration.
