Holding the Line: Why Workplace Immigration Enforcement is Always a Win for American Workers

By Chris Pierce

It does not take a degree in economics to understand that when illegal aliens are removed from the payroll, companies have no choice but to look to the local, legal workforce to fill those positions. In a time when too many Americans are still struggling to find stable employment, ensuring that job openings go to those lawfully present in the country is the right and just course of action; restoring fair competition and increasing the value of lawful labor in the job market.

Georgians fear influx of migrants from Russia after Ukraine Invasion

Remember when the media and politicians claimed calling the mass migration at the border an invasion was racist? Or remember all the times American politicians and economists have haughtily dismissed the idea that rising immigration puts pressures on housing prices, inflation, and wages?

The Department of Labor and the ‘Child Labor Tax’

By Jared Culver

A working theory of government is that they can reduce undesirable behavior by taxing it. When the government wanted to reform the health insurance industry, they imposed a tax penalty for citizens who refused to buy health insurance. The government taxes early distributions of retirement savings accounts because it wants to discourage early withdrawals. This … Continued

You Should Be Worried More About Criminals Than Crime Rates
