We do need lots of migrants.

No we don’t. We need to get our native citizens off drugs, disability and assistance and back into the workforce. Ignore the unemployment rate, it excludes people no longer looking for work.

Our labor participation rate is incredibly low, if we address the policies and addiction which led to them quitting and staying home permanently we would have an abundance of labor.

You’ve bought into a false paradigm where you correctly identified a poor outcome (no one will work a manual labor job at a market rate), but instead of questioning why that happened in the first place you accepted the narrative the ruling class pushed which is that by importing new people that everything will be fine.

The reality is they will just start voting for free stuff like our current populace does within a generation or two and we will be far worse off than we are now because the real issue was never addressed.
