this country has seen your nativism before.
the cause was that american women stopped having the number of children necessary to support our economy.
the effect is illegal immigration.
no doubt george w bush, the republican party, and of course, the democrat party do not agree with you.
do not expect either political party to do anything you say.
thank god! the leaders of this country understand economics.

You understand economics. Here's a question for you: in general, do industries within technologically advanced societies become MORE labor intensive as time progresses, or less?
Here's another related question: what is the primary impetus for labor saving innovation, which benefit productivity and typically improve overall standards of living?
Finally, is it possible for you to argue a point without assuming nefarious motives in your opponents? If not, why not amble on over to DU, where I'm sure you'd feel far more at home.

thank god! the leaders of this country understand economics. Then tell us why our economy is so sluggish ----growing at less than 2%? Why the increasing joblessness and government deficits? Why are taxes so extremely high? Why are people working now 30 years to buy a house when 50 years ago it only took 15 years?

Well, that certainly seems to be true - unless of course doing so provides an excuse to grab more power. But other than that, you're absolutely right. They don't care much about illegal immigration.
