"This has been studied a lot and found that it's really not true"
It's not true that increasing supply suppress prices? That's not true? Fascinating, what a breakthrough!
"Many immigrants aren't low skilled "
And many are. What percentage of the illegals would you say are low skilled?
"in a general sense doesn't seem to pan out"
So why do liberals bemoan that wages at the bottom are not rising?
