The default position of every economist is always more people. Why?

To keep our economy growing. Otherwise, it will stagnate and then decline slowly like Japan.

The theory ignores basic math. Permanently growing populations to “save” the economy necessarily leads to billions of people in North America. Ever try to visit Yellowstone National Park in the summer? It’s a lie. Japan’s “stagnant” economy has given the Japanese people a high standard of living, a low crime rate, and a cohesive non-diverse culture. Explain the downside please?

Illegals do not keep our economy growing.   They are a drain on our economy.   Automation in the past, then computerization and robotics have continued growth.   AI will keep our economy growing if we don't have to fight off the masses that are attempting to destroy our country.

When buggies became passé the companies converted to building automobiles.   Anyone who feels we need illegals in our country is a modern-day backward thinking Luddite.

Democrats raise the minimum wage and restaurants get rid of clerks and install automated kiosks.   We need to stopping thinking the almost enslavement of illegals is a solution to our problems.
