If there's a job only a select few people can do of course they are bound to get paid more. It's just how it works.

Your whole basis of less immigrants = higher wages is kind of wrong, and therefore everything after it is also wrong. The minimum wage would remain whether or not immigrants worked these low skill jobs. The only possible thing that could happen if we kicked out all the illegal immigrants (only realistic possibility when dealing with immigrants here) would maybe be an increase in produce/animal product prices, where most illegal immigrants work.
Also those jobs actually pay better than the jobs most low totem Americans usually work. You can make easy $10 or $11 an hour cleaning coops, and if you're in a slaughterhouse you can expect like $13/h. Picking jobs I'm not sure about. Usually illegal immigrants just get paid a little less because "ey no quieres pagar taxes ey?"
It's not as simple as supply and demand. -
2017-11-12 at 5:28 PM UTCI once knew a girl by the name of Mandy, peculiar name now that i think about it. Anyway, she was this qt alternative skater girl. She had small boobs, but hey that's fine by me. In fact, i prefer it. She had somewhat of an attitude and would get in arguments with people for no reason. So one day, while hanging out at the skate park she got into an argument with me about what i can't remember. At some point i was making jokes about how she was more of a guy than a girl.(She was pretty tomboyish, but again, that can be pretty hot on the right girl) So i said: bitch, you don't even got tits. Don't talk to me about being a girl. She was like: Do to! So i said: Is that right? She said: Yup, go ahead feel. Presenting her modest tits to me. So i put both hands on her tits and was like: Huh, i guess you're right. I hope she felt victorious after that because i sure did.
Haha, hahaha. -

Actually it's precisely as simple as supply and demand. The rest is government interference, which is what most economic woes come from in the first place. -

Immigrant labour isn't reducing anyone's wages; low skilled jobs like burger flipping etc are already being price controlled to above their market value by a magical little thing we call a minimum wage.
