This is all about trying to save the entitlement state. Our leaders realize that the entitlement state requires more and more young working people to keep the pozi scheme going. Since native American are not having dozens of babies our leaders decided to throw open the borders to keep the population growing. That in a nut shell is why we have open borders.

That is illogical nonsense. Open borders will hasten the collapse of the welfare state. Immigrants, legal and illegal, use welfare to a greater extent than the native born.

Some 45.4% of recent U.S. immigrants receiving welfare live in California, as compared to only 28.9 percent of those recent immigrants who do not receive welfare.

An amnesty will cost $6.3 trillion if there are only 12 million lawbreakers here. They will take far more out of the system than they contribute. FYI: Immigrants grow old as well.

Common sense says that more workers paying entitlement taxes mean more cash flowing into government coffers in the short term, but millions of retired immigrants will empty those coffers in the long term. Social Security has always been a variation of a Ponzi scheme, requiring ever more contributors to keep it afloat. Such schemes inevitably fail, which is why they’re illegal unless they’re operated by the government.
