The dirty little secret is that this is exactly what drives the push for amnesty for illegal immigrants in this country. Every adult illegal alien represents a ready-made consumer who didn’t have to be raised and educated here in the U.S.
I would amend that — it WAS (nb the past tense) what was driving the push for amnesty — that the illegals, once ‘legal’ - would buy up the surplus of homes.
Now with unemployment predicted to top 10% easily (BLS U-3 figures), making the illegals legal would instantly pop up the unemployment stats - by perhaps a half million to a million former illegals.
Suddenly The One’s economics would look even more suspect than they do now, and unskilled, low-skill and even trade workers would have additional competition on top of what they have now. Especially males.
