nah i disagree. an immigrant did take your job, but it was his/her right to do so. everybody gets a fair chance in the US. or at least those are the proposed rules.

you're jobless because there's just not a strong demand for human labor anymore. that, however, has nothing to do with the immigrant and everything to do with the broader economy.

that's why we need a universal basic income, which can only be financed by taxing the rich.
