Pres. Trump's Tight Labor Market Wins U.S. Construction Workers Higher Wages
2018-09-07
[Breitbart] American construction workers are seeing their wages rise in the blue collar industry as President Trump’s "Buy American, Hire American" tightened labor market forces business to find and employ disenfranchised U.S. workers, rather than importing foreign workers.

A recent report by the Miami Herald chronicled the rise in wages and business having to adapt to an economy with a tight labor market as immigration enforcement has been increased and unemployment has hit record lows.

As admitted in the Miami Herald by industry insiders, the tight labor market has secured jobs for Americans willing to do the blue collar work and won them higher wages in the process.

#4  It's like there's some relationship between supply demand and price...

When you realise low wage migration is effectively subsidised by taxpayers, and you realise who is actually picking up that subsidy you realise how selfish the "open" borders lot are.

#2  BTW, you notice the trades like those are not subject to diverse gender impact law suits? Sort of like the lack of significant applicants for the combat arms in the armed services when they removed gender restrictions.
