We do not have a booming economy at present. This article stinks like propaganda.

Among all 25- to 34-year-olds living in the United States, 10.6 percent of those with masters, professional or doctoral degrees are foreign born, compared with 8.5 percent of native-born young people....

ROTFL! That's some funny stuff.

I thought the argument was to legalize the ones here then seal the border. Seems the argument has evolved. Now we need to accept a “steady flow”. My resolve just got firmer.

Our current economy stinks so bad that the uneducated and unskilled illegal aliens are leaving. There is nothing happening now to draw talented legal immigrants in significant numbers.

“Under our broken system,”

Should read, “because we are no longer a Nation that enforces its existing laws,”

A steady flow of talented, industrious immigrants can fuel a booming economy


NOT if givernment activity and taxes suck all the air out of the economy..

Illegal Alien Amnesty is Anti American Bigotry

Illegal Aliens, and all immigrants, contribute zero unless they bring in their own money and spend it in America. You do not create wealth from nothing

Amazed how folks have aero clue how a national economy works

So the Chamber of Crony Capitalism comes out with a BS straw-man argument.

I’m willing to bet a miniscule percentage of those foreign born with masters, professional and doctorates are illegals.

Seal the borders. The immigration issue is only broken as far as we don’t enforce existing laws. We don’t need some stinkin’ “comprehensive plan.”

“president & CEO, U.S. Chamber of Commerce. “

Yup. The same clown outfit who advocates open mass illegals immigration. I knew this crap piece was all BS propaganda.

I will say that frequently, I find hard working and industrious immigrants vastly more desirable than the entitled lumps of flesh that many “real” Americans have become.

sadly, the American dream is all too frequently practiced by people that were born elsewhere.

If we stopped immigration those with degrees would be 100% native born.

We are not a nation of immigrants. Colonists and pioneers carved this nation out of the wilderness with their bare hands. Immigrants showed up later.

It's in our own best interests to welcome the world's brightest minds and hardest workers into our economy.

... the elephant in the room being that Americans, apparently, are no longer the brightest minds and hardest workers. That's the problem that should be addressed, in my opinion.

Why would talented foreigners come here? In there home countries, they’re not expected to support a large number of idlers and moochers.
