As it always has since the 1776 bourgeois revolution, the capitalist class largely runs the state, and many of them exploit immigrants:
- For their cheap, compliant, and politically & legally impotent labor
- To weaken the bargaining power of the domestic labor force and suppress its wages
- To pit domestic labor against immigrant labor, which distracts some of the domestic working class from its real enemy: the capitalist class
Some portion of the capitalist class publicly rails against “illegal” immigrants while privately exploiting them. It’s kayfabe.
