Not at all. He wants wages to increase, not decrease. That would be counterproductive to what he wants to accomplish, which is higher wages for the middle class.
In Bernie's defense, if we are trying to rebuild the middle class and immigration legislation will drive down wages, then isn't that going against his message?
What a mess i dont like this fighting but it must be done.
There was no SLAVERY Bernie, they were paid. Once again he is abusing a sensitive word he knows nothing about. What an oportunistic, exploitive person.

I haven't looked into it much, but aren't most jobs that are affected by immigration considered lower class? As in, increased immigration isn't adversely affecting the wages of respiratory therapists, but of farm workers.
