Wage labor is a race to the bottom for labor. Keeping immigrants out does not address the race to the bottom for labor. The eight hour work week was won from events like the Haymarket Affair.
Yes but the foreigners aren't often inclined to push for it like the people here saddled with already living here are, they send money home and often live with less then steller condiditons because for a lot of them it's temporary condition in their minds, I'm getting the sanse that a lot of the negative comments on this chain are know it all American that know nothing of the massimportation of labor we had here in Canada this last decade.
