Foreign-Born Population In The U.S. Has Dropped An Astounding 1 Million In Only 6 Months....A Major Reason For Trump's Horrible Job Numbers

[Dagoth-Ur]

We educate all children of school age. The Supreme Court is pretty clear on this one.

I meant foreign students in American colleges, but the Supreme Court’s wrong and we don’t have to give children of illegals anything because they’re not real citizens

Immigrants fuel labor force growth, entrepreneurship, and innovation along with increasing consumer spending and tax revenues.

Crime and Trump are synonyms

I’m sorry, but you’re not getting entrepreneurship or innovation from Haitians or Somalians, asked for labor, force growth we have automation to worry about never mind the fact, they actively drive down wages while increasing the cost and a man of the essentials of life

 

[Dagoth-Ur]

Long term projection are often suspect, but there are indications fewer immigrants means fewer workers and less growth:

Fewer Immigrants Means Fewer Workers, Less Growth​

Dean Baker

"One of the releases from the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) that gets relatively little attention is its annual projections for growth in employment by industry and occupation over the next decade.

"BLS’s latest numbers are worth at least a few minutes of thought.

"BLS projects that the economy will add 5.2 million jobs between 2024 and 2034, an average of 520,000 a year or 43,000 a month.

"That compares to job growth of 19.2 million in the decade from 2014 to 2024."

Seeing how only the very elite or the immigrants themselves benefit from this growth, I’m OK with throwing a monkey wrench into it.

Meanwhile, less traffic less pollution less demand for housing less crime demographic stability, not importing a bunch of welfare voters Little vote for the far left because that’s how they did things back home, oh the horror!/s

Then that's about competition. Be better, get the spot.

Take it up with the Supreme Court. This has been reality for many, many years.

 

[Billiejeens]

For now.

 

[Unkotare]

I’m sorry, but you’re not getting entrepreneurship or innovation from Haitians or Somalians....

Yes you are. You need to get out more.

For now.

For the foreseeable future.

Trump and MAGAs love being tough on brown people, but it comes with a steep price. The simple fact is that Trump is hurting the economy with his brutal war on illegal immigrants.

From the article below. --

The president’s crackdown on illegal immigration, including workplace raids like the one at a Hyundai plant in Georgia on Friday, is driving down the availability of foreign-born workers, which also weighs on hiring. Over the first six months of the year, the nation’s foreign-born population fell by more than 1 million, according to the Pew Research Center.

Trump’s tougher immigration policy, coupled with the effects of societal aging, are reducing potential monthly job growth by more than 100,000 hires, according to Barclays.

Your Cult has been whining and crying for years the the government isn’t going after companies that hire illegals. Trump is by going after their slave labor you love so much.

Leftist FAGATs are entirely comfortable with their illegal alien criminal illegals killing Mericans.

Served in the Air Force for 20 years....protecting this country from racist MAGA domestic terrorists such as yourself.

Fortunately, you're old and not as dangerous as many of the racist, mentally ill MAGA ***** on this board.

"Served in the Air Force for 20 years.."


Of course you did, dear. Stolen Valor creep.

Are we talking about immigrants or illegal immigrants?

Apparently, CPS/BLS data does NOT separate legal vs undocumented immigrants (ChatGPT):

"Good question — the problem is that the 6.6 million figure (immigrants’ share of net job growth between 2014–2024) comes from CPS/BLS data, which does not separate legal vs. undocumented immigrants.


"Here’s how the breakdown works:

• "The Current Population Survey (CPS), the monthly household survey used by BLS, asks whether someone is foreign-born, but does not ask immigration status. So all immigrants — naturalized citizens, green card holders, refugees, temporary visa holders, and undocumented workers — are lumped together.
• Most estimates suggest that the vast majority of immigrant job growth comes from legal immigrants (permanent residents, naturalized citizens, and visa holders)."

 

[georgephillip]

Seeing how only the very elite or the immigrants themselves benefit from this growth, I’m OK with throwing a monkey wrench into it.

Are you also OK with reducing GDP growth over the next decade?

"The BLS projections imply employment will grow at the rate of 0.3 percent annually over the next decade. GDP growth is roughly equal to the sum of employment growth and productivity growth.

"The Congressional Budget Office (CBO) projected that productivity growth would average 1.6 percent over the decade, which would imply average GDP growth of 1.9 percent."

You seem confident immigrants represent a net cost on US society; why is that?

Explainer: Immigrants and the U.S. Economy

"The question of whether immigration represents a net cost or a net benefit to the U.S. economy has been a major source of contention, even as the research literature and thinking among economists has been quite clear.

"Sifting through the full economic and fiscal impacts of immigration is a complex task, but a strong body of research and consensus by most economists finds that immigration, on balance, is a net positive for the U.S. economy.

"Still, the public debate over economic impacts continues, as some observers highlight immigrants’ tax payments and labor force contributions, while others underscore education, health care, and other costs to governments."

Never mind, degrading quality of life, environmental degradation, political instability, and the small stuff like traffic or just being loud and annoying in public.

Japan proves you wrong.

Japan’s economy has been stagnant since the 90s.

They also fuel additional criminal justice expenses, additional welfare expenses, additional healthcare expenses and additional educational expenses.

Time for them to leave.
