You’re half right. Tariffs are likely to lower wages actually. But deporting illegal immigrants would probably raise the average wages of the people working in the fields that had those displaced jobs, either through supply and demand (few employees so there’s more money to go around), or by citizens replacing non-citizens and getting paid full wages as a result.
why hope when you can vote for people who will pass laws to make the wages go up?
Most people did.
most people didn’t vote.
True, I should correct my statement: more people who voted did than didn’t.
Did they though? Will we get laws to raise wages?
Yeah.
Notably there’s these promises from Trump:
Neither of those things are laws that raise wages.
The first one will reduce supply of all sorts of things, which will raise prices. And it’s back to hope again that the suppliers raise wages.
The second one is a tool to raise prices, with no direct way of raising wages so that’s kinda the opposite actually.
Any Republicans out there putting forth laws that directly raise wages?

Yeah probably
Ah, so you’re back to hope, got it.
Oh my gosh y’all are so ridiculous 😂😂
