Yes, I know you can’t turn a carrier around on a dime. That doesn’t mean you can’t turn a carrier.

So what’s the first step?

Eliminating welfare for illegals? That's what Milton Friedman said was the reason open immigration for people seeking jobs before 1914 worked well, and open immigration for people seeking welfare after 1914 is a disaster.

Eliminating welfare and leaving it to the private sector would have a wide range of benefits, of course—the rebirth of American civilization, for instance. It needs to be dismantled doorjamb by doorjamb, and we could start almost anywhere. Except: I would not start with stopping the rate of growth. That doesn't change welfare's character, which I think is essential to producing a change in people's assumptions about how to live.

I would definitely support that, but there would also have to be other steps taken in conjunction.

The fact that our government is letting this country be overrun and swarmed by illegal aliens is intolerable and outrageous.
