Companies can expend resources to push the government to implement policies (or ignore existing policies) that flood the labor market with labor from outside of the existing market. This isn't even theoretical, it's something that's been going on almost since the country was founded and continues to distort the labor market on a colossal scale.

Yes, and I'm in favor of allowing people form other countries to "flood" the labor market. I'm not a protectionist. I think people have a right to work no matter their nationality. (BTW I don't even live in the US).
