    As such lovers of free market capitalism, shouldn’t Republicans want immigrants to come here and compete for work so that corporations can get employees for the lowest wages possible?

      Yes, they do - which is why they do everything in their power to keep that disempowered labor disempowered by hysterically painting them as an “other” that must be repressed through every means available.

      It’s just how right-wing ideology has always worked.
