Immigration isn't the problem with housing, and immigrants aren't a problem. So why put the blame on them? Are they 'poisoning the blood of our country' as certain people would say?
The only problem with immigration is that it's not easier to become documented, which creates a two-tier immigration system for the benefit of companies and detriment of workers.
Housing can be fixed with actually good public housing, rent caps, and removing zoning laws that prevent dense housing from being built.
Where do immigrants live in trees?
Oh course its going to increase any housing shortage.
There is a lot of problems with immigration. Immigration as a whole is different to certain immigration. If you break it down certain countries, certain jobs and certain education levels can cause a net drain on a country.
That's not to say all immigration is bad. But to think all immigration under any circumstance is good is just a signs of being brainwashed by their side and refusing to look at anything that goes against their view.
who builds the housing, trees?
Locals primarily.
sure, but if immigrants comprose 2% of the population and make up 5% of the housing workforce, they're still a net gain for housing
No. That's poor maths, you're comparing two entirely different things. This is why so so so many of the arguments and facts about immigration are in poor faith. People massively oversimplify.
