Didn’t think it through, people would come here based on those child bearing policies to get cash
guys, what could we possibly need a foreigner for?
I want zero. There's no good reason for immigration anymore. It hurts both us, and their home country
we have enough traintracks already
Brain drain is a good point I suppose
foreigners are an additional worry
why not wait til things are better over here before we roll out the welcome mat
@Werlf Hungary is doing it well by lessening the tax burden on mothers
Good point
I just literally can't find any positives to immigration anymore

What are some of the typical ones that you’ve shot down
Oh, increasing GDP, "doctors and engineers", etc
Immigration increased with Trump btw
Correlation =/= Causation @Kodama
what about Trump's presidency would cause more migrants
well if theres someone more nationalist than trump, ill vote for him instead
What part of increasing gdp is wrong
@Werlf Because there's more important things than GDP as a number, and other ways of increasing it than immigration
im sure only in a roundabout way does immigration increase GDP
It would probably *lower* it in a roundabout way as well
I do have an argument that is Pro Immigration if yall wanna hear it. It's not water tight but it makes sense
Ok go on
So right now the USA has an issue because Medicaid / Medicare / SS are pretty broken since the number of Recipients > the number of Workers
High skilled immigration would probably disincentivize native citizens from perusing high skilled training, because immigrant labor is cheaper
So more workers will add revenue to that program thus solving that issue
So now, because locals aren't looking for training, your education market collapses
not really as most immigration to the US now is low to no skill workers that you have trow a LOT of money on before they get useful
@Nordhand Yes, but the argument from the right is "More immigration, *but highly skilled*"
So have you got anything for me to read, Fitzgerald?

Fuck autocorrect spelling the whole thing out
what highly skilled immigrants, if the are anyone left they are not willing to move to the US
Like an article or something
Way to fucking dox me
Nah, I don't
Highly skilled immigrants hurt their native countries
I’d like to read or watch something that’ll pose to me the arguments for and against immigration
