Without Immigration USA becomes a Japan

[kennetha]

i.e. a rapidly aging, shrinking population and a no growth economy. Take the combination of Trump's deportation policies, his coming Muslin ban, his hostility to refugees, and his Steve Bannon inspired hostility to H-1B visas. These measures will send a clear message to the world that outsiders are not welcome here.

If Trump has his way, the fundamental nature of our country -- especially it's wide open, welcome the ambitious restless newcomer looking for a fresh start ethos -- will be drastically altered.

And not for the better.

Just another reason to resist this illegitimate and stupid fool and his enablers and henchmen at every single turn.

1. Wow man.

Really good point. I was totally focused on our "statue of liberty" values. Hadn't even considered that aspect. Thanks for the brain seed!

2. have always said - the American Dream

is kept alive by new immigrants. Not even their kids who are American born have the same spirit.

Have these idiots considered the fact that their food costs will go up, care of the elderly will be hard to come by etc. The change to the economy will become obvious soon.

3. Oh oh!

A feudal state where the country is divided into shogunates? I want to be a samurai for hire!
