If you're homeless due to losing your job, then you'll be homeless whether your job goes overseas or to someone else in the US.

Of course. In any growing services-based economy you will have foreign born population growth. If you eliminate that population growth, economic growth will decline with it.
If we were a growing manufacturing-based economy that wouldn't be the case as much.
