All modern countries are collapsing because of low birth rates. That creates a huge demand for immigrants to come in from both business and the government because an aging population not replacing itself with younger people is a recipe for economic disaster. There isn’t enough labor and there isn’t enough of a tax-base to fund entitlements.
...................................................
There you go, ENTITLEMENTS. ILLEGALS are DESTROYING our system of government. They are taken care of and GIVEN everything but not our vets. Why is the birth rate dropping? Because BOTH man and wife or partners have to work to sustain a household due to being overtaxed for the illegals. Young people have to WAIT to have children even when they want them because they are subsisting on meager jobs and afraid of losing them. Look the FACTS in the face! You are saying we need the illegals when it is the illegals who are destroying us!

You say “any republican can balance the budget” when NO republican has resisted the overwhelming financial irresponsibility of the Obama Administration so now we owe too many TRILLIONS, soon to pass the point of no return. There is a Republican House and a Republican Senate, but nothing hass been done to stop the insanity and you want to elect another politician who talks pretty fairy tales.

TRADE DEALS are packages in which we LOSE and more than a deficit in our trade balance, but we also lose SOVEREIGNTY. NAFTA for example. Mexico and Canada can tell us what we are allowed to do about the food we eat. Do you call us a sovereign nation when a neighbor state tells us what to do and what not to do about labeling the meat we eat?...and has a court back to it up, fining us billions?

You’re misunderstanding several things.

I’m talking about Social Security and Medicare entitlements, the ones given to older people. It’s those entitlements that ONLY younger people can pay into. And that is one reason why modern countries’ governments want to bring in immigrants. Illegals’ are likely not collecting on those entitlements for the elderly, just plenty of others that they shouldn’t be allowed to.

Trump has said he doesn’t want to reform Social Security or Medicare, so we’re stuck with them and finding a way to fund them. An increased birth rate is what I’m suggesting, not more immigration. We need our more traditional values back to encourage a higher birth rate. That’s what made our country successful and a low birth rate is what kills off modern countries and encourages an immigrant invasion. Just look to Europe to see our near-future in advance.

There are plenty of wealthy or well-off, educated, progressive young people who are CHOOSING not to have children. You can’t blame it all on people not having money. It’s a question of values.

I didn’t say any Republican can balance the budget, I said any Republican would cut waste and abuse if they can find it. Trump has no plan to balance the budget and I don’t know if any Republican does. I haven’t heard it discussed much lately. Absolutely both parties are at fault for blowing up the budget. But Trump hasn’t talked about any significant cuts. He wants to spend more on the military and not reform Medicare or Social Security. I haven’t heard him or anyone say where his tax plan creates a balanced budget. He’s hoping that the economy grows enough to bring in enough revenue at his lower tax rate, but that’s what Republicans have been promising forever and it never seems to materialize. You can’t just hope for more revenue. Republicans have to man up and make CUTS to the budget. The sequester has been the best cut we’ve ever had and many Republicans have worked tirelessly to repeal the sequester.

I have no information related to the labeling of meat, but like with any of these trade deal issues, I can’t think of a lower priority on my policy agenda list than the labeling of meat.
