That’s just getting pedantic about the meaning of “fault”.
Take the immigrant part out.
Two, 6th generation USA homegrown workers, one from California, one from Texas.
Job is in Cali, min wage 16.50/hr, leave out living expenses.
Texas min wage is 7.25 so Texan tells employer he’ll take 10/hr because he needs money.
Is it the Texan’s “fault” a Californian job was taken, or is it the mechanism (or lack of enforcement) that allowed him to be hired in the first place, for less than state required min-wage, that’s the underlying fault?
You can try to get pedantic about the meaning of “fault” I suppose, but to me that’s just a distraction to skip the point, and enable vilification of Texans.
It’s partly the Texans fault. Outsourcing is another pickle but it is more active on the job takers part if they had come to California and then taken the job. Outsourcing, it’s more passive and harder to do anything about.
Nah, not for me. He’s just a guy who needs a job.
I don’t blame AI for simply existing when it takes our jobs either. It’s the employer who chooses to use AI instead of humans that is at fault.
