Ok. Now ask the question “Why do illegal immigrants come to the United States?”

Hey, here’s an idea. PAY everyone from a third world African of South American country to come here. Then we can all feel good about loving our fellow man/woman. Surely we can absorb 20 times our current population.

As long as they do it legally, no problem.

Of course they come here to improve their lives, they wouldn't do it otherwise.

The question is at what cost to the quality of lives of Americans? Anyone allowed to come here should benefit America, otherwise they have no business being here. Illegals don't benefit America, they cost social services and compete against legitimate American workers for jobs.

Americans don't owe it to illegals to improve their lives, they can stay in their own crappy countries and improve them from within instead of coming here and destroying ours.

Winos and druggies move to warmer climates and especially liberal run cities to improve their lives too, don't they?

Downtown Duluth isn't very wino friendly come November.

What is the upper limit? If 1 million LEGAL immigrants a year is good then why not 10 million? Why not 50 million per year?

WTH????

And what’s in it for the US?

Nothing but lower wages, higher taxes and more Democrats.

The limit should be variable and based on our ability to absorb them without any impact to our hospitals, schools, job market, and so on.
