that's cog dis
I'll take that back
like, textbook
Oh
He's just wrong
on many accounts
So he's not stupid....but he's stupid enough to be wrong a lot?
that doesn't seem to make sense
Wrong in what way?
On issues of immigration
saying someone is wrong or stupid doesnt mean anything. Give examples
The lone penguin is back
Should've said waddled back
DAMN IT
Missed opportunity
Yep

nice one though
and with that, I'm going to bed lol
late af here
night
if im not welcome fine
you're good dude done take it personal
He's portrays immigration as bad for us economically
dont*
which is just false
I can understand maybe a cultural argument
Immigration from where and in what quantities though? To say all immigration is bad economically every time is obviously a rocky case to make but I'd imagine arguing that dirt poor immigrants who can also barely speak a word of the language contribute substantially to the economy would be a difficult proposal to make too
ill leave yall with an article that sort of shows the foundations of all this. Just how much we don't understand reality around us. Check it out if you want to. Just sort of a reference so yall know I'm not making this ish up lol
anyway, night
Night lad
Immigration has shown not to reduce wage levels for natives in any significant manner because there's much more important determinants. If you were to have a bunch of disabled immigrants coming to the U.S. then you would have case because then they would just be a drain but the amount that is coming to the U.S. isn't an economic problem
for example at some point there were tens of thousands of Cuban refugees who went to Florida in the course of one night and researches studied the impacts on wage and found no significant change
No significant change in the wages overall or in the fields that they were employed in? Because obviously 10,000 refugees arent going to be competing for too many higher paying white collar jobs. Also was there any sort of labor shortage in Florida at that time? I'm not arguing that they were a drain but its things to consider
they were primarily low skilled workers
"You can see Card’s striking result in the graph below: There’s just no sign of a dip in low-skill Miami wages after the huge arrival of low-skill Cubans in 1980. The red line is the average wage, in each year, for workers in Miami, ages 19 to 65, whose education doesn’t go beyond high school. The dotted red lines show the interval of statistical confidence, so the true average wage could fall anywhere between the dotted lines."
based libtard obama's white house has some good arguments too
