More than 45 MILLION IMMIGRANTS LIVE IN THE U.S. (That's both illegal and legal immigrants), according to UN figures, more than FOUR TIMES as many living in any other nation in the world. Unless you like more traffic, congestion, etc., it's time to slow down ALL immigration. There is nothing sacred about it.
THINK ABOUT THAT NEXT TIME YOU ARE STUCK IN TRAFFIC!
Immigration is equivalent to 90% of the population increase in California and 70% in the nation during the 1990s. This number reflects the immigrants who arrived in the decade plus their offspring.
As of April 30, 2016, the United States has a total resident population of 323,730,000, making it the third most populous country in the world. It is very urbanized, with 81% residing in cities and suburbs as of 2014 (the worldwide urban rate is 54%)
Consequences of Continued U.S. Population Growth:
*One acre of farmland or wild land lost for every person added.
*25.55 barrels of oil consumed annually for every person added.
*12,331 kilowatt-hours of electricity consumed annually for every person added.
*1,932 cubic meters of water withdrawn annually from aquifers for every person added.
