A forum user claims VOX won't curb immigration due to business ties
A forum debate discusses immigration and the role of political parties. One participant argues that employers demand foreign labor to suppress wages, meaning parties linked to business will never be part of the solution. This user accuses VOX of aligning with employers, warning that voting for them turns Spain into a South American-style country, citing business forums as evidence.
The core argument: who demands labor
The starting point is the accusation that employers import labor to keep wages down. The conclusion is that a party with business ties cannot solve the issue. Citing business forums, the user warns that voting for VOX turns Spain into a South American country.
Responses vary. Some say they will vote for the PSOE, while others conclude no party will fix anything. Pessimism prevails, with the view that the political system is trapped by business demands for workers.
The contradiction accused against VOX
The repeated criticism is that VOX opposes only specific immigration, not all. The party focuses on legal immigration and South American origins, yet regional policies with the PP bring thousands via family reunification. The conclusion is that voting for VOX against immigration is mistaken.
Others defend VOX's seriousness, focusing on insecurity and social frustration. They mention an opposing mayor and violent incidents against reception centers. The debate shifts to whether the issue is immigration itself or its management.
The businessman as central to the business
Analysis shifts from the party to the employer. Employers have enough workers but lack those willing to accept harsh conditions in agriculture, seasonal hospitality, or transport. The diagnosis is that they want cheap labor to avoid raising salaries.
Non-governmental organizations are implicated in this business, creating a vicious cycle: immigrants work until they access subsidies, then another batch arrives. Comparing hard work wages with unemployment benefits, it concludes that in some jobs, it is more profitable to collect benefits than work.
Disagreement on political solutions
The conversation splits. Some argue left and right agree, and the political class is the problem. Others counter that the PP is now blue VOX, and voting right changes nothing. A third view states that a problem generated by the system cannot be solved by an opposing force within it, requiring a paradigm shift.
Some point to an internal split in VOX, with a harder wing on immigration. Others suggest solutions the law doesn't allow. The discussion ends without agreement, remaining open between those who believe voting is enough and those who say no ballot fixes this.
