We are going to add 130 million to our population in the next 40 years, 75% due to immigration. And remember, even the younger workers grow old and will also go on to the retirement programs.

You don't change demography overnight. Currently we have a fertility rate of about 2.1, which is replacement level. Unless you double or triple your intake of immigrants, most of whom today are poor and uneducated, you are not going to change things.
