Then you didn't read his post. The demographics don't lie. In 2 years we will see the largest exodus from the workforce in our history with the retirement of the Boomers. The taxpayer/tax recipient pyramid will invert and we had damn well better have some way to rectify it because the Boomers are going to be very militant about their retirement benefits and healthcare. It is way too late to breed our way out of this since the Boomers kids are even less likely to reproduce to replacement levels that their parents were. That is a fact.

Just heard tonight that many boomers plan to work into their 70's and some have said into their 80's. I don't honestly think an illegal is capable of earning what most of us earned and pay as much into FICA... would probably take three or four (if they even declared and paid FICA) and when you look at the public services they consume I don't see a win-win here... we would be much better off to immigrate an educated populace, many of whom are wanting to come here and can't because of the sheer numbers pouring over the border.

Never fear. All of the illegals (all 12-20 million of them) currently in our country are breeding like rabbits. And all those little bunnies are anchor babies, so therefore U.S. citizens. We are overpopulated, not underpopulated. That's not counting all of the illegal immigrants from countries other than Mexico who are also breeding their own little anchor babies, all of whom are U.S. citizens at birth. So your concerns are misplaced.

We are chock full of immigrants, and if Bush gets his Amnesty bill through, all of those 12-20 million illegals, once legal, will sponsor bringing their families here from Mexico and other countries. At, and this is probably a low estimate, approximately 4 family members per illegal, our population will explode. So, those 12-20 million will burgeon to 30-60 million in short order. By 2050, we will be a nation of minorities, and will have lost our American identity to the political correctness of multi-culturalism. Hope you don't have children that will have to live with the end result.
