>more immigration means more demand on products (more expensive) and more demand on jobs (less pay)
>the most basic principle of modern capitalism is that you need more people to expand your economy
Am I missing something here? Who the fuck benefits from "expanding the economy" in these conditions? Please do try to refute me because there's obviously something I'm missing

The capital class benefits from additional consumers and lower labor costs.

More demand on jobs and products, but also more supply of products. The purchasing power of migrant labour also means more demand on labour.
The increase in nominal GDP that ensues can be harnessed, through taxation, into important infrastructure investment. This can also not happen.
Immigrants also help in that they arrive in a country as working adults rather than dependant children, so they pay taxes without costing the government's education budget anything. Whatever children they bring alongside them are potential workers, too. In countries below replacement birthrates, they are essential to keep pension schemes stable. This model of outsourcing social+biological reproduction, of course, is not ideal, and should be treated as a stopgap at best.
In practice, it depends on the sector, on one's education, and also the time frame.
For instance, if there's a housing shortage and a job squeeze, immigrants - in the short term - increase housing demand, but they also represent a potential increase in the workforce that can build new homes.
What's REALLY bad for normal workers is when you have a large illegal workforce that can't complain to the authorities if there's wage theft or safety violations without risking deportation. This underground existence helps organised crime set in, too (if the cops will rape you abu ghraib style if you go up to them, you won't complain you're being extorted by a gang). In the case of the US, mandatory e-verify laws could help change this.

Even mistreated illegal immigrants are net contributors to the economy. The real problem is that the supply benefits you mention accrue disproportionately to middle class and white collar workers and the costs fall disproportionately on the working class. Jill the gynecologist gets more benefit from Miguel the Roofer fixing her roof for cheaper, than Paul the Roofer loses to Miguel. But for Paul, Miguel’s existence is a straight negative, and he’s going to vote and hold opinions that reflect that reality.

what i dont understand is how are all these indians and chinese people coming into australia speaking 0 english or barely any english buying million dollar / multi-million dollar properties, getting multi-million mortgages, straight off the boat

and how are there all these africans and arabs getting into social housing and getting so much welfare money so quickly despite their families having contributed absolutely zero taxes historically

i dont understand why this is all happening, but its making me believe the social contract has died, and that i should now start abusing the system for my own benefit too

Lolbertarianism is a jewish ideology that only gets endorsement from literal cuckolds. The ideal economy is the combined output of a homogeneous people with a strong manufacturing sector and a stable currency.

and your own country's judicial system will crush you if you try to fight or even talk back. Hell, you run a risk of getting cancelled and /or prosecuted if you don't cheer on loudly enough.

Makes sense, more workforce increases production and balances the prices, and the government uses the workforce to transfer wealth from the private sector to them. Too bad China is investing heavily in the robotic industry, the jobs immigrants tipically grab will be replaced sooner than later, just how AI is replacing desktop jobs.

Business owners but especially the government. The more people the more taxes.

There never was a "social contract".
