Why I'm worried about youth unemployment

[theworldismine13]

explain to me those prominent fast food jobs , and not that backwards black conservative blame latinos logic

i have no idea what the hell you are babbling about, the only point i was making is that illegal immigration hurts youth employment and groups with low skills, including black people by taking jobs and lowering wages

i dont give a fuk about your beef with black conservatives and if i want to blame latinos for anything i will

why is it so hard to understand that if you flood the labor market with low skilled workers it lowers wages for low skilled workers?

shouldn't low skiklled workers get payed the same rate starting

 

[theworldismine13]

shouldn't low skiklled workers get payed the same rate starting

you should get paid whatever the going rate is for the type of work you are doing, the point is if you are illegal you shouldnt be working in the first place

yeah they do and also construction and manufacturing

this is a good example of illegals stealing good paying jobs

Where does it say those are good paying jobs?

Them Baby Boomers ain't retiring

Where does it say those are good paying jobs?

I'm assuming they are just because it's a manufacturing job, but even if it wasn't it's the same difference

How can you not conclude that those 200 illegal workers were stealing jobs from citizens and legal residents? They obviously were

If citizens and legal residents wanted the jobs, they would have them.

Illegal immigrants don't create the shadow labor market you are crying about, minimum wage law does. The illegals are only here because of the opportunity created by minimum wage... without that, employers could pay legal citizens whatever they wanted, and those citizens would displace illegals and remove the incentive for illegals to come here

What you and other "anti-immigration" idiots don't seem to understand is you can't stop people from migrating from one place to another, especially in search of opportunity. You can't really stop anyone from doing anything. So just decrying illegal immigration without understanding what drives it is stupid. Taking a hard line on illegal immigration is like taking a hard line on drugs- the only way to ACTUALLY stop people from doing drugs is to address the factors that cause people to do them. It's no different with illegal immigration.

In a recent IPC report, demographer Rob Paral took a close look at Census and Department of Labor data and found that there is a huge disparity between immigrant workers and unemployed natives, making it such that they don’t compete for jobs longterm.

Even during a time of economic recession and high unemployment, most native-born workers do not compete with most immigrants for the same jobs. This is apparent even when we compare unemployed natives with employed “recent” immigrants who came to the United States within the past decade. Unemployed natives and employed recent immigrants tend to have different levels of education, to live in different parts of the country, to have experience in different occupations, and to have different amounts of work experience. As a result, they could not simply be “swapped” for one another.

The U.S. economy will not be lifted out of recession by removing immigrant workers from the labor force. Rather, the key to recovery is creating jobs. Encouraging unemployed machinists on the East Coast to become food servers on the West Coast is not a recipe for long-term economic growth.

thats stupid, how can citizens and legal residents get jobs at a factory if illegals already have the job

the illegals are here because immigration laws in the united states are weakly enforced

im not anti immgrant, im anti illegal immigration and i think the immigration laws not be enforced better, i think people should be free to move wherever they want but it has to be done a in legal organized manner, not in a haphazard manner

that doesnt address the issue of low skilled workers

immigration helps the economy and it helps people with skills, it hurts low skilled workers, studies like that try to obscure the negative impact on low skilled workers by focusing on averages of the whole economy, butalmost all studies on immigration show that immigration hurts low skilled workers and helps everybody else

Most low-skilled workers do not compete for the same jobs low-skilled immigrants do. You can't hurt someone that doesn't want to apply for the position.
