Shock: 80% of U.S. population growth is from immigrants, resources being sucked dry
Washington Examiner ^ | 7/30/14 | Paul Bedard

A group dedicated to saving the planet by cutting runaway population increases is raising a new and shocking issue in Washington’s bitter fight over immigration reform: Most of the nation’s population growth is from immigrants, and they are consuming resources dangerously fast. According to Negative Population Growth Inc., 80 percent of the growth in U.S. population comes from immigration, legal, illegal and among American-born children of immigrants. “With increased population, we see a direct increase in the problems our nation faces on a daily basis: pollution, over-consumption, traffic gridlock, crowded schools and hospitals, overburdened social services, unemployment, crumbling infrastructure, urban

Just more proof that liberals are certifiable. Like Mark Levin once said, they are fanatical about global warming yet have no issues with Islamic fanatics getting their hands on nukes. “Oh yes, nuclear bombs, that will be wonderful for the environment. Nuclear fallout, radiation does wonders for life.”

“crowded schools and hospitals, overburdened social services, unemployment, crumbling infrastructure”

What do you get when you put 2lbs of dung in a one pound bag?? Same thing when you over load your country with debris and cast offs from foreign lands.

I don’t know why this is a shock. It has been the case for almost two decades. In 1970 one in 21 was foreign-born; today, it is one in 8 the highest in 90 years; and within a decade it will be one in 7, the highest in our history. In 1970 there were 9.7 million foreign born; today there are almost 45 million foreign-born.

Or they get all worked up over “the environment” but have no problem with 12+ million “consumers” who happen to be here illegally

Not to mention they overwhelmingly tend to settle in big cities, increasing the problems mentioned. Pushing out the productive people further and further out while paving over good farmland and turning charming little towns into manufactured suburbs.

No, no, according to Pelosi, it is AMERICANS over age 55 that use entirely too much of our healthcare resources. I guess the illegals deserve our resources more than those of us who actually WORKED and created those financial resources! /s

Immigrants come here to work, build businesses, MAKE a better life for themselves and their children.

Criminal alien invaders come here to TAKE whatever they can ... they’re just imported gibsmedats.

Immigration always creates huge surges in population. The same thing happened in the US in the late 1800s and early 1900s. That isn't surprising and it ultimately benefited the US. What you can't have is surging low income / low skill immigration and a Welfare State. That is a recipe for national suicide.

We are missing an opportunity here. UNKO how his greatness likes to divide and conquor. Well, we can do it in reverse. We need to get the word out to the inner city urban outdoorsmen that this waive of immigrants is going to displace them on the welfare and snap rolls because there is only so much money to go around. Furthermore, since they are viewed as a far larger group, they will supplant them as a principal voting bloc for the dems. Then we need to arm them up and step back and watch the fun.

Americans aren’t reproducing. Not including immigrants, our birthrate is 1.7-1.8.

Immigrants from third world countries increase their family carbon footprint, energy use, pollution output, and trash generated by a order of magnitude after they get to America. Global warming Democrats don’t care. Huh.

So what. Since 2000 we have added 38 million people. The nation’s total population will cross the 400 million mark in 2051, reaching 420.3 million in 2060. In 1970 our population was 203 million.
