Does France need immigrant labour?

Of course France does not, no more than any other nation does, but in the chase for ever more personal gain by those already at the crest of the financial mountain, to pay indigenous labour enough to give it a feeling of worth, and enough spare disposable income to make life worth living, is an anathema of classical proportions.

Immigrant labour, even if paid well below local labour, still sees working capital disappearing over the horizon to other parts of the world, which in turn deprives the local economy of the value of that money to the local economy.

Forget encouraging immigrant labour by paying wages more than it can achieve at home, pay local labour a decent wage, which will invariably re-enter the local economy, thereby both sustaining the local economy, by providing jobs, and at the same time deprive the disaffected of their cause to complain they are being deprived in their own land.

The other matter, usually laid at the door of religion, is yet another sound reason to refuse to accept any more immigrant labour, especially, for the double reason most are suited only to unskilled and service industry work, (both being capable of being done by locals), and secondly because of the disruption caused by the imposition of religious practices unsuited to the locality in which it is being imposed.
