Reckon that’d work here?
Would Hose-A and Hose-B go home?

Well the Japs were always racists anyway.

Maybe we should use some of the BILLIONS of taxpayers dollars on the table to pay illegal Mexicans and others to go South to build a massive fence system, and then let them exit for good (maybe give SOME of them a chance to come back legally) when its done.

I wonder if they would pay me not to go to Japan and work.
I’d be willing to settle for half of what others are getting.

Actually, I’ve proposed this for the illegals before. Give each $4000 cash to go home, with severe penalties of hard labor if they return. Total cost if all 12,000,000 took them up on it, only $48 billion. Reduces unemployment and helps Mexico deal with the returning influx.

Sure, less people. That will fix their problem.

Cutting muscle to save a bit in the short run. Ten years from now they are going to regret this.

You’ve named a problem with the welfare state - which is wholly under the control of domestic Americans, not immigrants.

Given that the Japanese are a case study in how not to run a country, we shouldn’t be in a hurry to emulate their policies.

Last time they had a labor shortage, they invaded Manchuria.

I don’t know that I agree with that - The Japanese have had a fairly stable society, for a few thousand years.
Is it ideal? No. Does it work? Well, sort of. The Koreans would say NO!
