Democratic lawmaker declares America would ‘collapse without
immigrants’

Rep. Jayapal lamented that immigrants are used as a 'political football.'

. . .

The other day I posted a thread entitled "Malthusian Crisis ..."

Very unfortunately Rep Jayapal is largely correct. The
birth-rate amongst native USAians is now around HALF
the replacement rate. Govt perks work by robbing the
future generation - but there ain't gonna BE much of
a future (native) generation and AI is gonna steal a
lot of the good jobs.

The only way to get enough people to tax is to IMPORT
them.

Yea, yea ... fewer give-away programs ...... but you
can't DO that politically. Once you give people "free
money" for something they EXPECT IT FOREVER and will
destroy anyone who stands in the way. France is a
good object lesson in this of late - it's in FLAMES
over 'pension reform' - basically raising retirement
age by only two years. MILLIONS in the streets day
after day. This could actually bring down the govt,
or maybe worse, prompt serious martial law.

Even highly xenophobic countries like Japan and China
are now suddenly entertaining "foreign workers" because
their birth-rates have cratered. No 'welfare'/pensions/
health-plans for the natives UNLESS you can bring in
lots of workers to tax.

Sorry, that's how the numbers work out - and you just
can't politic another answer.
