Birthrates for minorities are slightly higher, but immigrants and their children drive 80% of our population increase. So when you bring in immigrants, 87% of whom are minorities as defined by the USG, you are changing the demographics of the country. We are being colonized by the Third World. From the Census Bureau:

International migration is projected to surpass natural increase (births minus deaths) as the principal driver of U.S. population growth by the middle of this century, according to three new series of population projections released today by the U.S. Census Bureau. This scenario would mark the first time that natural increase was not the leading cause of population increase since at least 1850, when the census began collecting information about residents' country of birth. The shift in what drives U.S. population growth is projected to occur between 2027 and 2038, depending on the future level of international migration.

Bringing in 1.1 million legal permanent immigrants a year is not in the best interests of the country. We must drastically reduce legal immigration.

I'm no fan of identity politics, but the "host" Northwestern European community has as much right to it as do "guest" communities . . . so long as no one starts making any metaphysical claims. Neither am I opposed to protectionist tariffs--this being part of the Federalist/Whig/Republican heritage.

My hostility to people like Buchanan and explicit "white nationalists" is that they disconnect morality from G-d and make it the creation of white chromosomes and they are reflexively and irreformably anti-Jewish/anti-Israel.

Thanks very much for your reply.

This is closer to my point:

“The fertility rate of the total U.S. population is just below the replacement level of about 1.9 children per woman.[7] However, the fertility of the population of the United States is below replacement among those native born, and above replacement among immigrant families, most of whom come to the U.S. from countries with higher fertility than that of the U.S. However, the fertility rates of immigrants to the U.S. have been found to decrease sharply in the second generation, correlating with improved education and income.[8]”

I wrote "RE: So if you support tariffs, lower immigration, and worry about the negative affects of foreigners, you are a neo-Nazi?"

SeekAndFind responded: "Where in the article did it mention the Nazis? Looks like Godwin’s Law has been proven once again."

The author brought it up. Do you not understand what "white nationalists" and "swastika set" mean?"
Trump is supported by so-called white nationalists, as Buchanan was before him, but the swastika set is merely an extreme example of the sort of thinking commonly found among those to whom Trump appeals.

The United States does not have a population problem. In 1970 we had a population of 203 million. Today it is 320 million and by 2060 it will be well over 400 million. Since 2000 the population has increased by 39 million, about equal to the current population of Canada.

We have about 94 million of working age (16-65) not in the work force. We have the lowest labor participation rates in 38 years. Why do we need to import millions of poor people many of whom rely on our welfare system?

If a large population is such a benefit, then India and China should be head and shoulders above everyone else.

It’s like talking to a wall with these people. They are fixated on economics uber alles above a community, a nation or borders. My neighbor just lost his “IT” job to India....he’s in his late 50s & in full panic, but the Adam Smith bow-tie crowd could care less even though we have almost 100 million Americans out of work.

I think you must have misunderstood my point, but thanks for your reply.

But the tariffs and trade restrictions that Trump dreams of are simply a very large tax on one group of Americans that would be used to provide economic benefits for other Americans. It is an odd line of thinking: If the government levies a tax on your neighbors in order to fund an earned-income tax credit for your family, then you're a welfare queen; if the government levies a tax on businesses that is passed on to your neighbors in order to subsidize your earned income through higher prices, then that's economic nationalism.

Actually, those tariffs are primarily a tax on foreign manufacturers, so that foreign nationals rather than Americans are taxed to contribute to the US Treasury. The only Americans who are taxed are those who have outsourced US capital to other countries.

Interestingly, NR and other establishment "conservatives" seemed to have had few objections when the Bush administration collaborated with Barney Frank and Co. in a genuine welfare scheme in which one class of Americans was taxed to transfer wealth to another class of Americans: TARP. Yet the people who defended an administration that robbed the Middle Class to bail out tanking financial services firms have the gall to call tariffs that keep capital in the US rather than overseas "welfare."

But that is not going to satisfy those who hunger for a fully expressed white identity politics

Meanwhile, National Review's candidates of choice, Jeb Bush and Marco Rubio, shamelessly pander to the identity politics of Chicanos and Mexican Nationals in America. The GOP establishment's MO seems to be dismissing any kind of self-assertion by white Americans as "racist" while donning knee-pads as soon as shouts of "Viva La Raza" are heard. They may as well be Democrats.

” The GOP establishment’s MO seems to be dismissing any kind of self-assertion by white Americans as “racist” while donning knee-pads as soon as shouts of “Viva La Raza” are heard. They may as well be Democrats. “

and I’ve watched them do that since Loretta Sanchez stole an election from Bob Dornan back in 1996.

Hermandad Mexicana Nacional registered illegals to vote for Sanchez, and Dornan, a slow learner on the problem of massive illegal immigration, challenged the election, only to be thrown under the bus by the worthless GOPe despite ample evidence that the election was stolen. A disgusting example of the lengths that the GOPe was willing to go even then to pander to La Raza.
