    Fifty-four percent of respondents agreed with a statement that “immigration is making life harder for native-born Americans,”

    In what way? Seriously. In what way has anyone’s life been seriously negatively impacted by immigration- legal or illegal- apart from a few edge cases?

    Because I seriously doubt 54% of the country has had any sort of direct impact from immigrants. The only time a lot of them even talk to immigrants is at Chinese and Mexican restaurants.

      Imaginary tech jobs they aren’t qualified for in the first place taken by people on H-1B Visas?

      “Man, I could be pulling down serious cash with Amazon if it wasn’t for all them immigrants!”

      Yeah my dude, THAT’S the barrier to entry… 🙄
