“Paleos think the country is going to Hell, but they thought that 30 years ago, then 20, and now. Earth to MIR: our birth rate is low so our population is aging, we abort babies at a high rate, and we have a raging fire of an economy that needs workers. We need H1-B workers to with science degrees too, but the cap is absurdly low on those too. Or we could get US rug-rats to get interested in science again. There are alternatives to immigration always. But no one considers the alternatives, so employers hire who is available, or stop producing.”

Earth to Sam, I’m not a Paleon-Conservative.

Telling that you didn’t dispute a single thing I said, only changed the subject.

Try again:

“But any debate is moot, regardless, because we’ve effectively forfeited control of the entire issue. Immigration levels, origins, requirements – these are all things to be decided through the political process legally. Our politicians instead allow our laws to be disregarded at will, our citizenship diluted, for business contributions and votes. Businesses that break the law are rewarded over those that follow it and politicians select their own voters. Tens of millions of people and counting. This is corruption on a third-world scale.”
