A Simple Fact - GOP Must Embrace Immigration to Sustain GDP & Economic Productivity
Posted on 10/11/26 at 5:28 am

U.S. fertility has now settled well below replacement rates (current averages are 1.5–1.6 births per woman, below what is required to maintain population growth).
Deaths are expected to exceed births around 2030, after which net immigration becomes essentially the sole source of population growth.
The U.S. population is also about to begin aging markedly. In 10 years, the share of those 65 and older will be close to 20 percent of the overall population.
High, sustained immigration preserves a younger workforce and higher growth. Zero (or even low) immigration leads to slower expansion, earlier stagnation, or outright decline and heavier fiscal burdens.
Combine that with federal debt held by the public well above 150 percent of GDP by 2050 (based on current spending), and we are headed for tough times that may completely reshape America’s role on the global stage.
Say what you want about immigration, but it is the only way to maintain the quality of life we all enjoy.

Or you can fix the economy so its more affordable to have children. My wife and I had 2 kids because that's all we could afford. Otherwise we would have had 3 or 4.

Bull shite. Democrat talking points.
The United States has an estimated 350 million people. We have a large population that receives government assistance who are able bodied to work. You can drive through any city large or small and find them. You can find their offspring at most public schools. Cut out public welfare for the able and you will have a work force.

I wish there was a way to make leftists hear how goddamned stupid they sound.

Birth rate is down because cost of housing college is up.

The GOP does embrace immigration. We want immigrants, not illegal aliens. We want people with a skill, able to contribute and prosper. We also want Scandinavian women.

When a Ponzi Scheme is established which forces you to import rapists and murderers from a third world schitthole, you can either import rapists and murderers from a third world schitthole, or get rid of the Ponzi Scheme

So you’re advocating driving all the way to the scene of the crash like the Germans?
The kids will be paid more because of supply and demand. They will pay more actual tax at the same percentage, and your old arse will not starve in the rain.

Is illegal immigration a net gain or drain for the American taxpayer?
Post the numbers (they’ve been posted here before) by demographic.

BINGO. And, half the adult population doesn't pay any effective taxes after filing annually. We have roughly 60 million people that cannot or will not subsist themselves in anyway other than theft. When you look at those numbers, we don't have a work pool problem, we have a parasitic percentage.

So, billy boy gates just fired 6K American workers and replaced them with 6K H1B's.
This has been happening for several decades. American workers are fired and they are replaced with cheaper foreigners with sham programs like H1B among others.
There are millions of 'Americans' sitting on their rears who have never worked a day in their life's, have a 5th grade education who are receiving free food, housing, medical care, producing feral children who end up going through the same exact cycle.
Our government, the ones that are supposed to be looking out for us Americans, have been letting millions of low IQ, uneducated third-worlders, into our country who receive money, free food, free housing, free medical services that contribute absolutely NOTHING to our country, all at the expense of the good ole American taxpayer.
