re: Why do you think the US citizen deserves a better wage than a non-US citizen if they do the exact same job? Lets say a barber. Say a barber in the US makes $10 per hour, and a barber over here makes $2 per hour. Does the wage of the barber over here (a non-US citizen) bother you?

Sure. But I'm a US citizen first. You think "globalization" is going to lower the cost of a haircut in the US? Folks will fly to the ME for a cheaper haircut? No... but illegal (and legal) immigration CAN lower the wage of US barbers.
