Wrong, wrong and wrong.
>most industries rely on the labor of the poor for mass production
Countries and companies run on technological advancement, something almost exclusively done by asian and white men. Global rate of major tech break throughs per capita has fallen 75% in the last 200 years. Your hamburger isnt cheap because Paco works in the meat processing plant, its cheap because white dudes invented refrigeration and the automobile.
>The poor make up the majority of all countries, and the poor consume and make up a majority of these industries
Why isnt Zimbabwe rich by your logic: nothing but poor hungry blacks as far as the eye can see that are willing to work for $1 a day, yet everyone is unemployed and starving
>3rd world immigration has no negatives, and is a net boon for any country, despite the aesthetic ugliness
you mean other than accelerated IQ decline, lower social trust, decreased school performance, increased government corruption and the elimination of national unity? Man, totally worth the short term increase in GDP so bankers can keep their ponzi scheme going for another 25 years.
