May Day!

It's May Day today, not May's Day, but 1st of May, aka  Labour Day.

People in this part of the world are worrying about their jobs and salaries, some say it's because of the local government's lenient immigration policy to allow inflow of foreign talents into the country, leading to locals not able to get jobs or even secure their jobs.

It was said that the recent years of higher than expected inflation and rising standard of living was due to the presence of many foreigners. Housing costs, necessities cost, cars prices increases, etc. are making locals becoming more pessimistic.

Are foreigners competing with locals on jobs and cause so much unhappiness? Or rather, will their presence make locals work harder and smarter, I don't know, really.
