My education has nothing to do with what I did not understand in this thread, you boob. What I wasn't understanding, was why anybody was concerned about a "shortage" of people in the US, or how that can even exist ?Yes! And that's why I called you on pretending to not understand. And so all you've accomplished so far is not being able to understand that we essentially have nothing to disagree with.
Our competition will (should) be able to tell us why growth is necessary in a capitalist system. Then we'll have a debate in which we can take the same position. You, with all your credentials may even upstage me!
Just don't challenge me on my understanding of SS economics or the principles of the Laffer curve. I debated those clowns for more than 5 years on the Supplyside forum.
It probably doesn't matter to someone our age but the kids 60 and under should care if they are banking on much ss when they are eligible to draw. That is if SS is still around. You and I are drawing off what is contributed from the much less younger people than we have and as years go by it will be much less than today.How is there a "shortage" ? What does it matter ?
Maybe, if you state your position in your own clear words, rather than stick a link up here, and expect that to suffice.Here's my contribution for the right's side of the debate, necessary on account of them not being capable themselves of stating the talking points.
Now maybe 'protectionist' can get on with making his points to rebut it?
Fuck you, you moronic SCUMBAG. I am up to speed more than you know anything about. For your edification, illegal aliens streaming into the US now are coming from over 120 different countries, all races, and every continent on earth except Antarctica.
I don't disagree in the least.Even when Obama was president, and Hillary had presidential ambitions, there were sizable illegal immigrant populations here.
I'm not ignorant of US immigration matters. You thinking that is probably due to my opinionsand expressly my opinion that population growth is race and colour blind.You show ignorance of US immigration matters, and would probably be better off if you stuck to matters concerning your own country, whatever that is.
Millennials and Gen Z are less enthusiastic about having children than their parents. The reasons are many: financial, social, and biological, along with the preference among younger generations for “freedom.”
America’s falling fertility rates have been a cause for concern for several decades. During the Great Recession in 2008, millennials delayed marriage and having children, causing fertility rates to drop.
Then, early in the COVID-19 pandemic, there was a short-lived “baby bust,” when conceptions fell slightly. Months later, the rates rebounded but were inconsequential compared to the huge number of daily deaths.
Over the next few decades, demographers expect the population growth to decline further. But there’s one hope for increasing the U.S. population: immigrants.
A report by the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) released Tuesday predicts that the nation’s population will near 373 million by 2053, up by almost 3 million from CBO estimates a year ago. The difference? An increase in immigrants over the next three decades.
More, much more....
Blah, all I know is that this country (circa 1970) was a far better place to live when the population was 1/3 less than what it is today.

The link is contrary to our opinions and was posted in order to inform the other side on the issue of growth.Maybe, if you state your position in your own clear words, rather than stick a link up here, and expect that to suffice.
Most of the illegal aliens here today are banking on getting various types of welfare goodies from Uncle Sam, rather than working and paying into the system. Making matters worse, many of the the ones who DO work, are harming the US economy by working off the books, thus paying nothing to SS or any taxes,It probably doesn't matter to someone our age but the kids 60 and under should care if they are banking on much ss when they are eligible to draw. That is if SS is still around. You and I are drawing off what is contributed from the much less younger people than we have and as years go by it will be much less than today.
Even though some of these immigrants cannot get a social they use a relative or someone else and are paying into social, even though they most likely can draw social when turning 62 or beyond.

Oh great! All we needed was the grand wizard to join this debate!My generation is the generation that's going to wreak havoc on us all, mark my words.

Do you understand that you don’t know me and your straw man arguments only make you look even more stupid?Do you even understand that you've compromised your rightist and capitalist priorities.
Why is it bad?Why is having a large population good?
We could. And even then... No one gave a shit...That's not my issue. My issue was the pros and cons of growth, as I thought everybody would understand. It will remain that on this discussion.
I don't disagree in the least.

Is there really anything on which we can disagree, for the sake of having a debate?
I'm a Canadian. Couldn't you tell?
Why is it bad?
We have more than enough land to sustain ourselves.
Especially since we really no longer need a huge workforce. Immigrants today mean only one thing, increased crime.combustion.
Yup. Let the population drop. Better for everyone except the ruling elite.
