Yes! For at least 60 months!!!
I’d vote in favor of a ten to twenty year moratorium. Even that wouldn’t get my area back to normal.
I don’t think we’re being told the true full extent of the immigration numbers. Things are changing so rapidly over such a broad area, that it just seems impossible that the stated rates of immigration could cause it all.
Since the middle of the Clinton years, it’s been my suspicion that the stats in a number of areas were being fudged or manipulated to prevent the populace from know what was really taking place with manufacturing, immigration, welfare, unemployment... and some other areas as well.
We were getting entirely too nosey.
For instance, with regard to welfare, there are so many different categories and programs today that it’s next to impossible to know how much the welfare tab is. Some of it is couched as employment when it’s really not. This reaches across lines to blur the employment figure. And when it comes to manufacturing, what specific things are considered to be manufacturing today? I suspect we’re being jobbed across the board.
