No no no!

We have workers NOW in the USA. We do NOT need to keep importing them. We need to do what the last admin did and give them hope and a reason. We need to end the BS.

If we keep promoting death to babies, we will never fix the future.

I wish DT was able to accomplish on the border what he set out to. At a minimum, he and the rest of Republican leadership need to (finally) make the average American understand the impact on their household income the wide open border has.

He worked around congress and got a lot done. There was a run on the border in 2019 that was organized and Trump went to Mexico and made a deal that kept them housed in Mexico.

Mitch wants it. States it.


People get it from the last admin comparisons to this admin... They are waking up.

Sometimes people can do hard things. I never expected closing the border would be easy, and nobody says Trump didn't try. But he didn't get much accomplished.

Hopefully, but I'm skeptical.

No, we don't have workers. We aren't in the situation China is in but we have a population issue

The bolded part is simply not true. Given the current US legal-immigration laws, most Indians in USA who are currently applying for green cards, are looking at a 50-60 year long backlog to even get the green card.



It's not simple for Asians either. I've been hanging out with a Vietnamese girl that is here on a student visa. She has 1 year from the time she graduates before she must have a US Sponsor (usually the corp they work for) to do their part of the paperwork and pay $$$ for or she'll be forced back to Vietnam.

You're a fricking idiot. I retired in my mid 40s, because I could afford to and it's fricking glorious.

And I promise you I can outwork your piece of shite arse any day of the week.

Abortion doesn't have anything to do with it. This country has done fanfrickingtastic with lower populations than we have today.

We definitely don't need to increase the population of this country at all from it's current numbers.

There are a lot of people in my area who live on SSI disability benefits from the government. They get food stamps, Medicaid, and housing. Most can be hired to do odd jobs for cash to supplement their income.

You're thinking of bodies. Sure, we have warm bodies. People with technical and critical thinking skills, no. People who are worth a damn, no.

Yep, you are talking about OPT (non-STEM) -> H1B route. To be fair, what you are saying applies to any international student. But if this person does find a sponsor who agrees to sponsor their H1B, and files for their green card down the line, they will receive the green card relatively soon (2-3 years) as there is no wait for Vietnam. However, for Indians the wait is multiple decades.

Not when you look at the past 40-50 years and see we’ve aborted the same number we’ve imported. Abortion didn’t just start rt now.
