The Future They're Planning for Us

Two contrasting approaches to population growth:

~First, the American policy, per the Census Bureau:

The Census Bureau is projecting that the population of the United States will hit 404 million by 2060, and nearly all of the net growth will be from immigrants and their families.

A new analysis of the figures shows that of the 79 million more in 2060, 75 million will be legal and illegal immigrants and their families, a population the size of France and Belgium combined.

Without immigration, according to the Census analysis from the Center for Immigration Studies, the U.S. population would increase by just 3.7 million, the latest sign that the country is on a path to zero native population growth.

Did anyone ask the American people if they want to be a country of 400 million people by mid-century? What else will be happening round about then? Oh, yeah:

Will Jobs Exist In 2050?

What will the job market look like by 2050? Will 40% of roles have been lost to automation – as predicted by Oxford university economists Dr Carl Frey and Dr Michael Osborne – or will there still be jobs even if the nature of work is exceptionally different from today?

For example, there may be plenty of jobs available handing out welfare checks at the Unemployment Benefit Office. In which case, America's decision to turn itself into the world's longest dole line will look like a smart move.

~On the other hand, here's a chap despised by the EU commissars as an authoritarian simpleton - Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán:

The measures announced Sunday by Prime Minister Viktor Orban during his "state of the nation" speech are meant to encourage women to have more children and to reverse Hungary's population decline.

I think they're underestimating the population estimates. Multiple caravans from the south will make us hit 404 million by 2030. Maybe sooner. Unless we have a wall built.

If we are getting FIVE MILLION illegals in 2019 alone (as reported a few days ago), we will hit 400 million a lot sooner than 2060.

At that point there will be such high concentrations of un-assimilating illegals being propagandized about how horrid the "evil white man" are treating them upon their arrival from 3rd W. S. H.s that they will be in open revolt.

Which will, of course, kick off retaliation from the much better equipped American Citizens and off everyone goes to a hot war here in the U.S.

Reality is what happens when proglibs are busy at "The Future They're Planning for Us."

I cast my one vote as "NO"

Me, too. I’d be 110 in 2060. But my grandchildren will be in their early 50’s. I worry about their future.

1/5 of the entire population of El Salvador has illegally invaded the US and currently resided here. Food for thought.

Beside including the citizen question this approach should be considered

One thing the Mexican Constitution has that we should consider doing.Mexico has no hyphenated Mexicans. They prohibit any reference to race when they conduct a census or issue any means of identification, Where a physical description is needed skin color yes but not by race or nationality or tribal background.By doing this Mexico has avoided “balkanizing”, creating fractional disputes in areas where a given group in one of its states is a majority or a minority.

This is the deliberate ethnic balkanization of the US. The goal is to get so many third world illiterate, unskilled and often hostile ethnics into the US that white middle class Americans and those who think like them will be at best a plurality. At that point ethnic violence can be incited. Maybe some Americans will wake up when the Somalis conduct a ‘Day of Direct Action’ against any non Somali they catch outside. (Read about what happened when the Muslim League did so a year before India became independent:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Direct_Action_Day

The goal is to terrorize the tiresome American Middle Class into tamely paying the Global jizziya and shut up complaining and resisting Sorosworld.

Opening your doors in nothing flat to a population four times the size that of Scandinavia but with a barely detectable percentage of Scandinavian skills and that will account for 95 per cent of your total population growth seems an odd move even for the economic determinists of the Chamber of Commerce crowd. As a recipe for wealth and prosperity, it's like turning 25 per cent of your suburban home into a refugee camp.

John Dingell Jr has been a Michigan congressman since 1955. For the 22 years before that, his constituents were represented by John Dingell Sr. Between the first Duke of Dingell and the second, the Dingell family has held the seat for a third of the republic's history. If that's what Michiganders are looking for in a political system, why not stick with the House of Lords?

Good riddance to this old monarchist. Fifty-five years and what do his constituents have to show for it? I do believe he said The Senate should be abolished.

The Dingell’s have held a Michigan House seat for over a half century, not Senate.

In Mexico this is aimed at those whose first loyalty is to their tribe such as the Yaquis or various Mayan tribes. If people so self-identified it would give a big boast to activists who want tribal groups to be semi-sovereign self governing entities in Mexico and would effect a quarter or a third of the country.

What can we do about it? We elected a President who unlike every Democrat and GOPe-tool, actually addressed the issue and promised to reduce migration.

Turns out he wants to do the opposite and increase the influx.

Fifty years of court mandated “fundamental” rights to contraception, abortion and buggery are leaving their mark.
