USA is getting adversely affected by Immigrants

[bryant.coleman]

US already pass the point of no return regarding immigration issue.
Couple with high inflation, middle class are being squeeze from top and below.

When there are stupid laws such as the birthright citizenship, you can expect others to exploit it. Some 20 million illegals will make use of it, to gain the American citizenship. Birth tourism is actually very popular in Turkey and the PRC.

And talking about inflation, it is caused by the devaluation of the US dollar.

Strictly speaking, inflation is inflation of the money supply, which causes the devaluation of the dollar, which causes prices to increase.

Yeah, those Native Americans shouldn't have let anyone in. Was all downhill from there. And oh the poor middle classes! My heart bleeds for them.

Here is another evidence to the argument that USA is getting adversely affected by Immigrants.

Illegals still get Medicare benefits, but feds vow crackdown, $70M savings

You got the point, it is annoying to see the politicians are followed by the majority to pick scapegoats : immigrants, free market, banks, neighbour country, jews ect. when it is usually the State actions that lead to ruin, war and dispair

And you're worried about immigrants?

I would humbly suggest that the ruling elites in the regime in Washington are doing far more damage to the economy than any immigrants could ever do.

There is no denial in that. But this topic was about immigration. I have already given my opinion. I have stated that the United States need to increase the legal immigration (especially that of the highly skilled workers), while discouraging the illegal immigration. Yes... I agree that the war machine has completely destroyed the American economy. But illegal immigration is putting a further drain.

It's like worrying about a paper cut on your finger after your legs have been blown off.

Exactly, but to ignorant racists immigrants (or 'illegals' as he likes to call them) are always the biggest or most pressing problem, you know, just cos they don't like them and need somebody to blame etc.

A culture is on the bottom of the food chain for a reason.

Any country accepting culture with problems with open arm is inviting all the problems which the culture can not solved in their homeland while giving them a free ticket to breed like there is no tomorrow.

Do you really want to turn a modern advance society we (and our ancestors) all work so hard for into a welfare queen land?

this happens to any number one country, weather its america or something else in the future

[mamichula]

I think you should look at I believe the Alabama law, and its effects after it was implemented.

[mamichula]

I blame the welfare state (wrought by selfishness and political pandering) and erosion of a free market, otherwise immigrants would add value. America is destroying herself. Sorry if I don't go more in-depth on substantiating this opinion.

Can you elaborate on what you mean though by 'erosion of culture'? Culture is a dynamic idea.

This.

Immigrant in the early days (18th to early 20th century) add value to the country. And they don't breed like rabbits.

Personal responsibility and saving were encouraged.


Not so any longer. Seen people abuse the marriage system, family relation to get their entire family into US. They take more than they give because of subsidy and freebie. And they abuse the credit system and commit tax fraud with no consequence.

Poor people have always bread like rabbits, the big difference is that 80 years ago the biggest group that died were kids, today it's old people.

Poor people don't always breed like rabbits. For example, Moldovia is one of the poorest countries in the world, and the birth rate there is like 1.2 children / woman. On the otherhand, the birth rate for the richest country in the world (Qatar) is around 6 children / woman (only for citizens).

The US has always been a country of immigration.

The problem is not with immigration. The problems in most of the countries nowadays (the US included) are caused by the omnipresent cultural marxism.

[nwfella]

Every american is an immigrant. The so called "pilgrim fathers" were nothing else than European immigrants.

Can you say bingo?

I'm pretty sure the Native American's where pretty bummed out at the adverse affects of the pale-faces diseased meat, flea infected blankets, and complete annihilation of their primary source of food, clothing and shelter as well.

Times have changed. What occurred two centuries ago can't go on now, without any consequences. Right now the American policy is to punish the legal immigrants and to encourage the illegal ones. That is wrong.

Having young and hungry people that arrive in your country to work hard, do unpleasant jobs to feed their family create wealth and confort for both the immigrants and the natives

The current high rate of immigration into the United States of America has adverse environmental impacts upon America, and upon the world as a whole. As an example consider the impact of a typical family of seven, immigrating from a country where their owning a car was highly unlikely. When they come to America they are likely to acquire cars (0.76 cars per family member). For every mile they drive, they pollute and deplete resources that could have been relatively unaffected had they continued their prior lifestyle. The act of border crossing enables them to make lifestyle changes that adversely affect the environment; by becoming Americans they adopt the consumption and pollution patterns of the world's most environmentally destructive lifestyle.
