Or admit that the bad economic situation of immigrants, allows for them to be paid less, exploitation.
The argument is the wage should be the lowest price someone will do the work for. Race to the bottom, since that inspires putting people on the brink of starvation to accept lower wage. At some point the wage will go low enough that they wont work and will steal or take what they need, that is revolution line.
The labor price is not calculated by value of work, but by availability of labor.
The whole equation of labor price, has nothing to do with value of work, but how many people that are poor enough to be willing to do the work.
So profit works to create poverty for more profit, and cheaper labor, race to the bottom.
Only when demand was more then production was there a counterbalance of always some other work needed to keep that out of the equation. So to solve the problem, the equation says people are not needed, and death of workers becomes goal, leading elements to remove any social safety factors like health care.
It is pretty simple, to rebalanced capitalism, people have to die, till there are not enough workers, to get the pool of excess labor not creating unliving wages. That is why the instinctual action of people wired into capitalism entity is creating ways that hurt peoples ability to live. Although what if production is always above the demand of work of one person, as it will eventually be in a better situation, then there is no fix except no people. Although that is the formula not what is correct.
Or the capitalism has to be seen for what it is, a system that does not work for society in a more production then demand system.
There are ways to create jobs that do not add productivity, in infrastructure, new energy, education, arts, and health for instance, but that is not profitable, but it takes labor out of the system, again making the living wage higher, and demand above production. That requires fighting the instinctual actions of capitalism.
And actually the creation of entire sectors like finance, that do not contribute anything are part of that, but done under capitalism rules, they only move money to a few, and do not help society. So society should direct some production to health, education, infrastructure, and things like new energy, to bring production below demand again.
Since demand can not occur, when people are at non living wage, and then production has nowhere to go, and lays off workers, lowering wage more, creating less demand. Until only fix is removal of workers.
Or give people money to create demand, weather they work or not, then many people wont work, and labor price will go up again, and so will demand.
Then some say that's not fair, Then don't work and help the system.
If it is not fair for someone to get something for nothing think of it this way. What they are getting the money free for is to allow someone that wants to work to have something to do, and some demand to fill.
And I am due beer and travel money, and many experiences, and that still hasn't been sent, so what is the complaining about. I am beginning to wonder if for spite they are going to bring everyone to my level of unjust compensation to fulfill justice, and you don't want that.
