What labor shortage?  It's not a labor shortage, it's a Wall Street power grab:

-14% of US working age males aren't working
This contributes to the labor shortage.

-the US workforce participation rate is the lowest it's been since women entered the workforce in the 60s
This isn't true, but yeah Americans that choose not to work contributes to labor shortage.




-Uber is locking out drivers cause too many already waiting for a fare
Not sure your angle here on how it's relevant.  Sounds like Uber could solve this problem and make more money by reducing driver pay though.

-There are no good jobs in America
Only if you think all jobs are bad.

-There is no affordable housing in America
There is plenty of affordable housing in America.

Regarding their alleged "tax contributions", just one kid costs $16k to send to public school for a year.  No migrant is paying $16k into the system.
A single immigrant working minimum wage for 18 years while their kid grows up will pay over 50k in taxes on the conservative side, not including 7% ss and medicare tax - which they don't get any back without working for 10 years in the country.
