You threat the wealth gap between poor and rich country as if it was unsolvable and fatality, which is inherently racist. People who come aren’t weights and the only reason why they’re forced to undersell themselves is because of social stigma and segregation.

RaivoKulli@sopuli.xyz 1 day agoOpening borders is a good way to ensure decent working conditions are never achieved since there’s a constant influx of people coming in willing to work for less. And you royally screw over the workers who are already living there.
Might suck for the origin country too if all the people are drained from there to work abroad. But that’s a larger topic.

I don’t think it’s unsolvable, plenty of countries have gone from poor to rich and some have gone the opposite way.
How is it racist, do you think only certain races are rich right now or what? Wealth isn’t tied to skin colour

The idea that the two are inherently connected sounds racist as fuck dude

More people also means more consumers and more people paying for stuff. Your racist idea of the third world being baby factories is deeply disturbing.
Just say you want to keep your first world privilege of being rich thanks to colonization.

What baby factories are you talking about?
More people also means more consumers and more people paying for stuff.
I’m sure the owning class are happy about that but does nothing for workers, other than forcing them to fight for those jobs with people willing to take lower pay and suffer shittier conditions. But line must go up.

I do fight for the workers in my country, I’m myself in an union, take part in their work and am a rep in the current company I work in.
I just feel like supporting employers bringing in people so they don’t have to pay as much or provide the current working conditions and whatnot is fucked up. If those workers were also unionized and got the same level as everyone else and so on, things wouldn’t be as bad, but it’s not what is happening. But even then I’m not sure why I would want to support companies pushing to bring in people to do the job I’m doing.

ask yourself why these people are willing to come to work for less.

The US? But I’m all for improving the work conditions at the source country, I’m just improving much if the company at my local area decides to replace us with immigrant workers to save on money and worker demands. Now the local workers are out of job. Not something most want to do out of solidarity.
