The fact that I'm American justifies it. If Americans flooded into say, Somalia, bought up all the houses, took up all the jobs etc, you'd be horrifically offended.
Americans have no where else to go. This is my home and I will not abandon it. You can't just drop 50 million extra workers into a country and expect people to just take it.
You say people born in other countries do not deserve american pay in America?
It's like saying you are white male and it justifies higher salary.
Also if you struggle to compete with immigrants who usually have no network, English is not their native language, have many other disadvantages - you are doing something wrong or are not competitive in the first place.
The fact is you should not fight against imigration, you should fight for decent payment for it and same rights
Do I as an American deserve a job in India or Somolia just because I ask?
We are incredibly atomized in the west, foreigners always have more closely knit networks. They always help each other out. People who make the arguments you're making are almost always foreigners. You have no say in the affairs of my nation. You should leave.
Hi, I just wanted to let you know that I and other Americans completely agree with what you're saying and I'm sorry your question is getting downvoted. There are lots of bleeding hearts on this site. Anyway, I wanted to let you know to not give up, don't believe the gaslighters - Americans do deserve American jobs. I'll sacrifice a few HN points to say this so others don't have to. Keep fighting.
