Considering that the scarcity of a commodity determines its value, shouldn't we rid the country of the 12,000,000 illegals, thereby shrinking the labor pool in order to drive up the natural price of labor? Afterall, if we do not pay our poor through prices which have been inflated due to their hire, we will pay for them via welfare + the costs of the welfare bureaucracy. Also, we need a method of transporting people from high unemployment regions, such as my own - 12% -to locals where there is work. This to me answers the argument that people here won't work. They will work at higher wages if they are transported to them, and perhaps if they even continue to receive welfare benefits for 2 - 3 months to help them get on their feet. What are your thoughts?
