I don’t think that’s telling the whole story.

Immigration has always been used as leverage against the native workers, and now it’s more efficiently corrupt than ever.

Used by whom?

The capital class?

It’s crazy how the same people that are pro-labor union are also pro-immigration. How do they not realize that immigration is used as a weapon against labor organization? Workers movements of the 20th century were well aware of this obvious fact. But I guess in this hyper polarized culture, people are scared of being labeled a bigot for having a stance on immigration that divergent from the liberal orthodoxy

Because they see the world thru skin color not economic class.

Look at that trajectory one more time and tell me how 'expected' it is.

The first stages of a worldwide recession is what it looks like to me.

I need you to very carefully consider the x axis of those 2 plots. Think about it real hard.
