If tweet fails to load, click here. They send 10% to 15% of their citizens to the USA to work illegals, then wire transfer their earnings back to their home country and it is 25% of their countries GDP.
They are driving up apartment rent prices in the USA and forcing down wages for American citizens, plus they get free healthcare and other federal benefits via scams in blue states. They they send their earnings back to their home countries instead of spending it in the USA economy.
This is a lousy deal from every angle for American citizens.

It's not nearly that low. Try 40 or more when you factor everything.

Purple Crush is under the impression that all this government spending has no impact on inflation and neither does mass immigration. We are screwed as a nation

And that doesn’t include direct foreign aid, military support, etc.

I would however love to see how much the estimated 3million US citizens, working abroad, send back to us.
Would probably be staggeringly less.

I’m fine with this as long as these countries stand with us and we get their resources
