Xenophobia is bad for corporate profits. Immigrants are needed to suppress local wages.
It's pretty bad for everyone, actually. Have fun with your throwaway.
It’s only good for far right parties because it wins them votes but they also tend to enjoy the benefits of immigration - lower wages. My point is that they can’t have it both ways.
Ticino enters the chat.
They can. My country's right wing parties supported mass immigration together with the left, and once the consequences of it became too severe to ignore, they switched to "drain the swamp" campaigning to get votes. Now that they got the votes and are a majority in government, no concrete action is being taken to solve the problems of mass immigration, but corporate subsidies are being handed out.
i thought u were living in italy, but apparently its not the only place where migrants get treated like this
This is happening across the entire continent. Mass immigration is a common strategy to destabilize social systems and force voters to accept bad compromises.
immigrants only benefit business owners: pay migrant less ➡️ migrant gets taxed less ➡️ less taxes for the system ➕ owner pocket extra money. immigrants are just another tool for tax evasion.
so society becomes worse, and business owner becomes richer. capitalists only bring destruction to the world.
