I’m going to blame the person hiring the immigrant for knowingly paying an individual less money because they don’t know better or can leverage that person’s status for personal gain.
I won’t blame the immigrant, because farms don’t have unions. The system sure, but that immigrant is doing the exact same thing that more than half the naturally born citizens are doing. Namely, trying to survive on the shit sandwich that the system and the capitalists have forced on us.
But he is just doing it cheaper and in shittier conditions than the rest. That’s the reason why people are hiring illegal immigrants, you don’t have to pay proper wages or have proper working conditions. And a constant source of workers willing to tolerate those conditions is a reason things stay shit and there won’t be room for those willing to work but want a proper wage and proper working conditions and whatnot.
Everyone involved shares the blame but not in equal measure mind you.

You’re not blaming the immigrant doing the undercutting of unions if that’s the case (often is where I live) or the system for allowing all of this?
