"Yet scholars describe increased immigration as an engine of economic growth."

Not when you're a welfare state.

Wow, and he’s not even elected yet. Guess we’ll all be in huts if we put this guy in office.

I think of it more like extortion. You do what ‘we’ want and the stock market will be fine, whether it be mass immigration or trillion dollar Wall Street bailouts with taxpayer money.

Yet scholars describe increased immigration as an engine of economic growth.

What do “scholars” think about a full scale illegal invasions? Is that good for economic growth?

Donald Trump causes a worldwide economic meltdown and then saves us from it! A grateful world makes him president for life!

What BS. We used to allow educated immigrants. That led to productivity gains. Third-grade dropouts don’t generate productivity gains. I haven’t yet met a college graduate from Mexico who waded the Rio Grande to get here.

What is so damn hard about following existing immigration law? “Immigration Reform” means wide open borders and ignore all laws on the books.

This stock market trouble is right in Trump’s wheelhouse. He has been saying China has been a bad trading partner. He will score points from this one.

I wonder if this author had to work hard to be this stupid.

A guy who is running for something that he has achieved, who has no impact on any vote, and who controls 10 billion the worlds 80 trillion or so in GDP, or about one ten thousandths of one percent, is the cause of a market crash that has long been predicted.

Expect the Left to throw everything at Trump including the kitchen sink!

It's going to be nasty.

I hope Trump's up to it. He has taken on a monster--maybe the biggest, nastiest monster in history.

If he succeeds, the world wins big! And the great heroes of history and mythology fall into his shadow.

Wish him well! And keep the encouragement coming!

Hey, Ira Stoll, you dumba$$, disease-ridden illegals stampeding across our southern border are NOT immigrants, they are criminal aliens.

The cost of welfare, schooling, jail and prison costs, medical care, etc. etc. for these illegals is hundreds of billions of dollars per year.

Coming into America without permission is a federal felony.

Twenty-five Americans are killed per day by illegal murderers or illegal drunk drivers. If you are one of them someday, Ira, the needle on my give-a-crap meter will not budge.

You probably blame Trump for global warming, the California drought, and fire ants, too.

Ira Stoll >>> Ima Troll...

Now illegal immigration drives the economy. Who knew?

Imagine the correction if lettuce pickers hadn’t shown up today.

Imagine the correction if restaurant back enders weren’t showing up to work.

Imagine the correction if 100 illegals weren’t standing outside the nearest Home Depot.

Oh wait. None of this happened?

Ah then why did the market go down, if illegals are the driving force?

Oh well, on to item 723 to blame Trump for.

That damned Trump! He’s screwing things up for Merica. I told you he would! /s

Meanwhile, on the 13th tee...

Ira, you have no economic sense at all plus some of the things you say are simply false. Trump has suggested marginal tax rates of 1, 5, 10, 15, and 20%. That's far under the current marginal tax rates. Then you quote examples from a law passed in 1924 and assert it was responsible for the Crash 5 years later. Plus, the checks and balances currently in place in the financial sector obviate that example to dust. You also talk about the Kennedy tariff changes as the reason for the late 60's economic growth. Bull shit. It was the reduction of marginal tax rates from 92% on income over $100,000 and other tax reductions that triggered the growth, just like the Reagan tax cuts in the 1980's.

Sorry, Ira, you need to take an intro to econ class and then try to remember it when you write in an area where you obviously know nothing.

As Ronald Reagan would say, “There you go again!”

The fact this rectum is a Harvard economist is proof that he is full of left wing bs.

There will be a quick recovery and another downturn, repeated by the same at various intervals until the big one hits.

Casino owners have long known that variable interval reinforcement will suck a gambler into continuing their play until they lose all their money. In other words, the more fluctuations that occur (alternating wins and losses with variable intervals) prior to the big collapse the more suckers will ride it to the bottom.

That’s why there is a chance our next president will be a casino owner!!!
