    You can't understand the growing level of inequality without understanding immigration.

    It's simple. If you increase the population numbers faster than the pace of economic growth can keep up, wages will go down.

    The U.S. is taking in all of Mexico's poor people. Why should it be any surprise the poverty rate has gone up?
    And the unskilled immigrant labor has been competing with the most vulnerable Americans holding lower level jobs.

    This is something the Left doesn't seem to want to touch with a 10-foot pole.
