    negatively impacting the profit margins of the Military Industrial Complex isn’t one of them

    Increasing salaries of American workers by making labor scarce is the purpose of restrictive immigration policy

    Increased salaries directly cut into profits. or drive prices up. Either way, the military-industrial complex will feel the pinch. And reducing the supply of labor only drives up wages when there are other people willing to do the job. While I’d like to see hundreds of thousands of MAGA whack-jobs picking lettuce in Salinas, it’s not going to happen.
