The anti-immigrant goons don't get the Schrödinger reference.

I’m not anti immigration but if you want to get into the reference it’s quite possible for two seperate immigrants to be working and taking available jobs and not working while collecting welfare. I don’t need to point out the obvious that immigrants aren’t one entire entity that can only do one thing at a time. There’s obviously instances where immigrants do have an impact on local job availability and there there are instances of immigrants collecting welfare and not working. I don’t need to point out the obvious that there are some instances of immigrants contributing more to the local economy than the local community too. This meme is actually a fairly shallow take on a complex issue, something I would prefer to leave to the bigots
