DOES THE ECONOMY NEED MIGRANTS? (Peter St Onge)

Does the economy need migrants?

The left claims we need millions of unskilled migrants to avert a catastrophic labor shortage.

In truth, migrants do nothing for labor shortages. Because they consume as much labor as they produce, from dentists to mechanics to social workers.

Instead, migrants create a glut of workers in whatever field they enter. If that's unskilled labor, it wipes out the domestic working class.
