Capital Has No Borders—Why Should We? - In These Times
Precarious immigration status creates an exploitable labor force, allowing bosses to drive down wages for everyone. Closed borders only benefit the elites. Treating migrants as commodities, exploiting their labor and paying them as little as possible. “The problem with today’s economy is not immigrants; the problem is our broken immigration laws that allow big business to exploit workers who lack legal status.” We are seeing the creation of a network of cities and industries in which basic human rights do not depend on a person's passport—a world in which crossing a border does not annul one's humanity. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Groups.io Links: You receive all messages sent to this group.
