Look at the article it is about LEGAL immigration and talks about regulation-- which my post says I support. My point is that it regulation is good, but cutting numbers of immigrants is bad for our country and our economy because of our falling birth rate among non-immigrants. The result is older people with fewer children, and those fewer children are also having fewer children in a trend that cannot be stopped once it is established since so many women are past child bearing age and they are adding to the older population. With fewer women to have children, and smaller percentage of young supporting large percentage of old dependents like Japan. What has saved us from going over the edge like Japan is large numbers of legal immigrants who are having more children than Americans. Without immigrants we end up like Japan, South Korea, Germany and other places in Western Europe-- a nation with a high percentage of elders-- mostly women.
