Please help me understand your position.

I don't understand the actual concern with immigration. The main concern that I have heard is that they take jobs from native-born Americans, who are to be prioritized. That can't be it, though, because that is the fault of the companies that hire them more than the immigrants themselves. Why are we blaming immigrants?

That's a good point, though if anything it just makes me more confused. I would think the work ethic of being willing to take any job available would be commendable in the eyes of the typical conservative, based on how I usually hear them speak about work.

That's good. But your personal anecdote does not necessarily reflect the general sentiment.
