“We need immigration because Americans won’t do those jobs.”
This familiar refrain, part moral preening, part economic sleight of hand, has been repeated so often it now passes as self-evident. It is used to justify the permanent resettlement of millions from the global South into the heart of Western nations, all on the assumption that without this human infusion, fields would go unplowed, beds unmade, and dishes unwashed. It has become the primary mechanism by which our elites enact demographic erasure.
The consequences are both deliberate and destructive. The influx of third world labor, legal and illegal alike, has been one of the most potent instruments by which native wages have been suppressed. In industry after industry, from meatpacking to construction to logistics, wages stagnate or decline, not because the work is beneath the dignity of the native-born White worker, but because the labor supply is artificially expanded by importing workers from regions where subsistence wages and informal economies are the norm.
Economics is not a sovereign force. It is a tool, and like any tool, it is meant to serve the nation and its people, not the market nor the whims of global capital.
This is not simply an economic process; it is a political and a demographic one. Wages are not determined in a vacuum. Like all prices, they respond to supply and demand, but within a framework that is shaped by policy, by identity, and by power. Who enters the labor pool, what standards prevail within it, and whose interests it serves are political decisions with demographic consequences. The limits of the labor supply, the ethnic solidarity of the workforce, and the capacity of native workers to demand fair compensation all shape the result.
Flooding the market with low-trust, high-compliance labor from outside the Western world not only drives down pay but corrodes the very conditions under which labor operates. Entire industries are reshaped around the premise of paying less, offering fewer benefits, and demanding no loyalty.
Quality declines, standards erode, and the native workforce is not merely undercut; it is displaced, demoralized, and eventually replaced.
At the same time, this process contributes to the long-term demographic transformation of our nations, turning a once-majority population into just another population to be exploited, managed, and cast aside. When native-born Whites are denied stable employment, or confined to jobs that do not pay enough to support a family, they are severed from the basic pillars of civic life. They cannot marry, they cannot own a home, they cannot raise children, and they cannot build a future. They cannot form households or build communities, nor raise the generations through which a people endures as a nation, rather than dissolving into a “population” to be managed like a market.
The myth that Americans “won’t do these jobs” conceals a deliberate recalibration of the social order. It masks the fact that many of these jobs once provided dignified if modest livelihoods before they were degraded by the importation of foreign labor with no stake in national continuity. It was not the work that changed, but the context in which the work was performed: the loyalties expected, the standards enforced, the wages paid.
In truth, the logic of mass immigration from the third world is not economic at all. It is managerial. It creates a compliant and fragmented labor force, a slave class in all but name, and it dissolves the social cohesion that gives rise to political resistance. It is not the cost of labor that offends the modern regime; it is the strength of a native class capable of asserting itself.
Suppress the wages, erase the people, dismantle the nation. This is the unspoken arithmetic of global migration.
