The poor nature of the third world countries
today is due to lack of employment. But in principles there is no
reason why this should happen. After all immigrants are consumers as well as workers, hence their arrival
will also create new jobs to meet the demand that they create. Certainly some people will want to change jobs, often getting
better ones and the country as a whole will be better off.
However, immigration may lead to a temporary increase in inequality.
The belief that immigrants reduce employment for the native workers often assumes that the numbers
of job in any country is fixed and that the arrival of more people will somehow dilute the available numbers of job. This
is obviously false. If the population goes up, this create more consumers whose needs have to be met, and this create more
jobs. Indeed even before immigrants have found work for themselves, they will be creating work for others who will be employed
growing and distributing the food other immigrant will need, building the houses they live in and driving buses they ride
on as they search for work. These extra jobs may not be as obvious as those, which immigrants do, but they are nevertheless
created.
The argument that immigrants are displacing native workers also assumes they are competing for the
same jobs. But very often this is not the case. Immigrant workers commonly take jobs, which native workers shun because they
offer low pay or low status-harvesting crops, washing dishes in restaurants or working in low-wage manufacturing. One sector
that has for long depended on the immigrant labor is construction. Rising level of education in Southeast Asia for example make local
people unwilling to be builders. South Korea has struggle to keep out immigrant workers, but in 1996,the ministry of construction
and transportation conceded that it would have to import more foreign labor to build the country first high speed railway
line.
Moreover the range of jobs that nationals reject seems to be widening. Taxi drivers in the US for example used to attract native white and black
workers. Nowadays, it is an immigrant job. In Washington DC,
the Taxi Operators Association estimated that over the last 25 years, the proportion of drivers who are foreign born has risen
from 25% to 85%.
Bringing people to do such job can actually increase for the native population. The clearest
example is domestic service where employing a low-skilled worker as a nany can often release a woman to a high level professional
job. Millions of women want to or have to work outside the home but can only do so with the help of immigrant workers.
The neutral or beneficial effects of immigration would seem to be confirmed by unemployment
data. Country that have had relatively high immigration in recent years-Australia, United States, Israel, Hong Kong Canada-have
not had unusually high level of unemployment during period of peak immigration. In Australia for example, the overseas born citizens make up more than 20% of the
total population and there have been extensive research on the economic impact. This has concluded that immigrants have created
at least as many job as they have occupied. A similar conclusion has been reached in Canada where 16% of the population is foreign born. A report from the economic
council of Canada concluded that a steady flock of immigration to Canada does not cause any unemployment problem, mainly
because some good number of firms expands to create new jobs.
