Add millions of workers, willing to toil for low wages, to any mature labor market and the result will be reduced pay (and benefits) generally, for that entire sector of the economy. Supply and demand, contrary to PC elites’ mantra, will over time, reach lower compensation equilibrium.

Current government demography (cuscus bureau) predicts that over the next thirty years, US population will increase from approximately 300mil to 400mil. The majority of that thirty percent growth will be due to the high birth rate among the 20mil illegals aliens, wrong interpretation causing anchor baby tolerance, and continued open borders.

Those same elites who demand amnesty are typically ecology activists; consistency is not a prerequisite for liberal logic. And apparently, having a PhD produces retrograde conclusions. 1950s academic alerts to population growth’s deleterious ramifications were ignored by all Washington D.C. politicians, to continue expanding consumer markets and “prosperity”.

As a forth generation builder, I have witnessed (over the past 50 years) the degrading of professionalism within one of the largest economic sectors; the construction industry labor force. Many workers today, as opposed to the 1950s, can not read (any language) or do the necessary math. Liberals are in the position of dismissing the importance of education.

The financial result, of the cheep work invasion, has been a lower rate of price inflation for new buildings at the expense of the depressed living standard for construction workers. The construction industry is unique, in that, there are “prevailing wages” for educated craftsmen that provide a comparative standard, at twice the cheep labor rates; much to the chagrin of my opponents.
