Your ire would skip sweetly to suitability if you concentrated on the reasons behind the phenomena. You're more likely to have to refer to failures in human capital investment (from box-standard education problems generated by wealth inequalities to training weaknesses in upskilling) than Mexican immigration. And that is before you even consider the demand-side explanations of a low skilled equilibrium.
That hordes of unskilled ILLEGAL Mexican scabs have been allowed to flood into the US by our corrupt fed gov to satisfy the so called cheap illegal subsidized labor wants of American scumbag employers of illegals has greatly exacerbated the plight of American low skilled workers as well as middle class Americans. Strong national employer sanction laws against hiring illegal Mexican scabs will force most illegals to go back to their hellholes, and will be step one in restoring prosperity to low skilled Americans and middle class Americans.
