Brexit Thread

Are you mixing me up with lizardo or something?

My argument is that controling immigration is an essential factor to reduce unemployment, and through it: homelessness. We can produce jobs but if our companies are free to import foreigners willing do the jobs for wages the locals would not accept then the locals are just going to stay unemployed. The only way to solve that is to restrict the immigration rate so the compaines have to hire at least some local workers but the EU's open borders policy means we are legally incapable of blocking immigrants from the EU.

As long as we are under the EU's policys and the EU contains populations with lower wage expectations than Britons it makes the "solving" of unemployment a sysphean task.

That's what I said you said, where is the mixup?
Are you mixing up a correct interpretation of your posts with a false representation of your posts?

And that this view is not entirely correct was the subject of our debate, yes. Where is the problem other than that you seem to be running out of arguments and then accuse people of trolling or misunderstanding you? Or am I misunderstanding something here?

Unfortunately for you, any good thing that may come after Brexit is accompanied by an adverse one. For example, you get out of the EU, curb immigration, get more jobs for locals, but... severing ties with the EU will lead to shrinking job market for those who work in cooperation with the EU or in producing goods for them. Things don't work in a simple linear way, it's all intertwined and taking out a seemingly useless brick from the bottom layer may cause the whole construction to collapse.
