The rust belt lost jobs due to overregulation and Unions, which in turn lead to "free trade" and outsourcing

It's a combination of factors

It wasn't immigrant labor that took manufacturing jobs

No

Your just wrong

He’s right @🎃Boo-ton🎃

Rust belt states don't even have a large immigrant population

Immigration, Outsourcing and Automation

It was all outsourcing

That's not true

A substantial majority

What you are saying isn’t making sense

And automation can be argued too but that doesn't hold true to histou

History*

The Rust Belt has seen the most diversification within the last 15 years

I beg to differ

They're still incredibly white compared to our states

Entire towns have lost white majorities

The southern states are the ones that lost jobs to immigrant labor

Especially California

Not the rust belt

I'm sorry button but immigration isn't the main cause of our industrial collapse

Hi sorry button but immigration isn't the main cause of our industrial collapse, I'm Dad!

Colored migration is a universal peril, haunting every corner of White America

As much as you would want it to be

It was economic and trade policy

it's both

they both are

^

No

Thank you

Again I tell you

Look at he graphs

they're both problems and we have to fix both of them

I'll send them when I get home fine

doesn't matter if one is lesser or more, they all must be fixed

Just to prove you wrong, what killed our industrial sector was NAFTA and China joining the WTO

it was

Zak and Jeb are simply related to immigrants

Our industrial sector grew after the 1965 immigration act

it may be the major reason, but there are other contributions
