real wages go down, as does purchasing power, because immigration drives up demand for goods and services: housing, food, transport, medical care, garments, amusements. the "savings" rendered to the employer are only available at the cost of an increased government expenditure, which is funded by redirecting taxes and by borrowing at interest. everyone existing in an economy has to pay the price of that economy for any good or service. these immigrants cost more than they produce, and it is charged to the whites: the only net tax payers.
