Let's be brutally honest here. Nobody wants to stand up and admit that large-scale immigration of this kind is the only thing that might prevent the U.S. from descending into the catastrophic deflationary spiral
I take it you never studied economics.... If the sole measure of a country's financial health is GDP, then why don't we have everyone from china and india and mexico just flood the borders, we can all make $1 a week but the GDP would skyrocket. The real issue is TAXES, Tort Reform and Health Care Costs NOT CHEAP ILLEGAL LABOR.

I've never said that the sole measure of a country's fiscal health is its GDP. If anything, the BEST measure of a country's fiscal health is its
per-capita GDP.
But even then, I've determined that any measure of GDP is illusory at best because of all the inherent inaccuracies in these numbers.
