Question

How does immigration effect the labor market

Answer 1

In many studies done in past years there has not been any major statistical evidence that labor marked is endangered by the high number of immigrant workers. It may seem as logical that, the more immigrants come to the US, the less jobs are left for the natives. However, we have to take into consideration the wages and the areas in which we can see more immigrant workers. First, immigrants work for less money and usually opt for manual jobs that are unwanted by the natives. Second, the small percentage of high skilled immigrants work in research teams together with the native workers, sharing their skills and increasing the profit.
