Former Florida governor Jeb Bush (R) argued Wednesday that the United States should pass immigration reform because the U.S. economy needs the labor of young immigrants, and immigrants are “more fertile.”
“Immigrants create far more businesses than native-born Americans,” Bush said at the Faith and Freedom Coalition’s Road to the Majority conference. “Immigrants are more fertile, and they love families, and they have more intact families, and they bring a younger population. Immigrants create an engine of economic prosperity.”
Bush said immigrants are an advantage that the United States has over China, Europe and Japan, which don’t have the same immigrant tradition and are struggling to find young laborers.
“If we don’t do it, we will be in decline, because the productivity of this country is dependent upon young people that are equipped to be able to work hard,” Bush said.
Bush, whose wife is a Mexican-born immigrant, has long been an advocate for comprehensive immigration reform.

George W's views on the subject are identical to Jeb's. On immigration, it's hard to tell most of the GOP from Democrats these days.
So uneducated, illiterate , criminally prone moochers from Third World start more business than native-born Americans?
Political correctness never lets reality get in the way of a good lie. How many times have we heard that our bordertown barrios are just filled with "entrepreneurs" and "natural conservatives." It's kind of hard to be an entrepreneur or a conservative when he can't read or write, when you're either unemployed or working a minimum wage, no-skill job for life (while on the dole on account of 10 bastard progeny), or when you're running in a gang.
One family I wish was less “fertile.”
Establishment Republicans are BIG losers — NO MORE!
And if Mexicans are the salt of the earth, the happy children of los barrios’’, why the hell is Mexico such a freakin’ mess? We’re importing poverty. Honest to God, if the Good Lord decides it’s my time to go tonight, tomorrow, whenever, I’m ready Lord. The America I grew up in and loved has vanished. I’ve been a liberal Democrat, I’m currently a conservative Republican. Ain’t a dimes worth of difference between the two. There’s no one flying the freakin’ plane.
I ask the same question to every pro-amnesty "conservative" who keeps assuring me that brining in more Mexicans will bring about some sort of cultural and political renaissance here. They've trashed their own country, now they're trashing and degrading US cities.
For many illegals, 7 crammed in a 3 bedroom house with water and electricity is a step up, and they’re willing to have 2 more kids. For Americans, relying on food stamps to supplement part time or irregular work, they aren’t willing to have more kids.
If more American men were employed, I suspect their girlfriends and wives would be more willing have another child.
He cant help it because of all that northeast inbreeding you understand.
Lets not piss off the cayote please.
177% spending increase is dangerous no matter what administration signing the budget passed by Congress has next to them (R,D, or I).
Dr. Jeb Mengela I presume. Jeb obviously wants to breed people and do some major social engineering. JEB BUSH IS A MAJOR JACKWAGON. Terri being killed was Jeb Mengela’s first project. GO AWAY, JEB BUSH.
There's also the fact that most Americans actually devote time and resources to raising, educating and disciplining their children, all alien concepts in the barrio.

The above lists the donors to George P. Bush; thus far there is no opponent in either party. This is for the March 4 Republican primary for TX land commissioner. Apparently George P. is living in Midland.
Take away all the non self supporting social programs first and see if they still have all their kids here.
We pay them now to increase.
Stupid stupid stupid.
among the elites I'll bet this is discussed a lot....they need large families with lots of kids so the endless materialism will not end...that there will always be buyers of cars and houses and refrigerators and they also need them to pay all the stinking taxes especially if we native born expect to collect on the Ponzi scheme known as SS...
Take all the gov't freebies away, and most of them would go straight home. It would be impossible for most of them to make it here without those taxpayer provided subsidies.
They've driven down labor costs to the point where hardly any Americans can even work in the building trades any longer. Unlike the illegals, we gringos aren't getting gov't handouts to make up the shortfall in what we take home.
Grrrrr......
If the election for Texas Land Commissioner is next March, there’ll be some challengers by that time.
If not, I’ll run myself. Screw that dynasty crap.
JEB! is an ass. Why do we waste our time with him?
It's the GOP-e who's wasting our time with Jeb. Most voters on the right have absolutely no interest in the guy.
If the Bush clan had half a clue, they'd realize that the American right has had enough of them for at least a couple of generations.
If so, then why is TX poised to launch the fourth generation of bushes in the March 4, 2014, Republican primary?
