Can you explain how immigration from Mexico affects Americans working blue collar jobs?
<|assistant|>
Immigration from Mexico has had a substantial impact on Americans working blue-collar jobs. Some Americans have been negatively affected as employers have been able to replace some workers with lower-wage immigrants. But this is only one part of the equation. 

In reality, more Mexican immigrants fill low-end service jobs (such as cleaning and serving), than take jobs away from Americans. In fact, studies show that immigration actually increases jobs for unskilled Americans and decreases prices for some goods. Further, higher immigration levels contribute to economic growth and boost the tax base.  

In the long run, the effects of immigration go beyond the impact on employment of a particular group of Americans. As immigration increases, more Americans become better positioned for jobs in higher-end service industries, construction, and other areas. Additionally, immigrants can create consumer and cultural demand which can result in more jobs for all Americans. Ultimately, Mexican immigration positively affects Americans working blue collar jobs by expanding employment opportunities, providing affordable goods and services, and increasing economic growth and taxes.
