I'm all for it
I think it would be good economially because it will give us a lot of cheap labor. Low skilled labor is in high demand in the US and that's why so many US factories are being moved to other countries. More cheap labor will allow us to keep our factories close to home which will be more efficient. Also cheap labor can be used for Service and Construction two very big industries here, more immigration will give us better service and bigger houses and buildings etc. If you are a low skilled laborer in the US the you should not want more immigration because it will bring your wage down but if you're a high skilled laborer you should because it will give you more employees to make stuff and will give a higher quality of life through service an construction.
I also think it's good for population growth. The rest of the worlds population has been growing very fast while the developed nations haven't. When large undeveloped nations start developing our economy will be less significant compared to the rest of the world. Plus more population will give us more tax revenues to pay for the military and the national debt. And it will give the military more men. Plus the second generation of immigrants can have a chance at collage and become part of the skilled workforce. I heard half of our population growth is due to immigration.
Some are against immigration because there are some immigrants who go on welfare or take from our Medicare Medicaid and social security, but I heard some wear that the overall taxes of immigrants actually just pay for the benefits they get, since you have to subtract the amount of immigrant taxes that go to the military and national debt. Some are against immigration because they tend to vote democrat because it's in their interest to do so. But I say if there are more poorer people to vote in their economic interests there will be more middle class who will vote republican in their interests because the median income will go down. And when immigrants work their way up they will vote republican. In history there is no connection to how much immigrants there are and how well the dems or republicans are doing.
I also think it's good because it will allow lots of poor people in the world to have a chance to work and have a better life for them and their children. Their children will have a chance to go to collage. Most of our ancestors were immigrants and most of them came here poor. If you read what a lot of critics said about immigration back then it was the same argument it is today, that there poor and unable make anything of themselves, that they create slums and how immigration was always better in the past. It was the same argument with each group of immigrants who came and look how their children turned out. The US used to let in a lot of immigrants in the past until the quotas in the twenties and the great depression. Since the 80s we have been letting more in but if you compare it two our population not nearly has much has we did in the past. When we reached our highest record in the 1880's our population was only 50 million
Don't you think we should have more immigration?
