We drag babies and young kids out of bed to get them to school and day care so that the parents can both work in order to afford to live here. We then we bring in immigrants and economic refugees  to fill up the affordable housing (refugees are 1st priority) that we need for the vulnerable that are already here. Give them subsidies and free healh care etc., just madness. Immigration does  not make us a wealthier or better country. In fact we have had massive immigration for decades and we have gone from one adult working to support a family to both adults working and the kids working part time to live a reasonable lifestyle. Even that is not enough, we have also aquired massive consumer debt to keep up. The only effective long term solution to population growth is having more kids, but you can't afford to do that here. How many immigrants or refugees would come if you told them no health care for five years, no welfare, no housing etc. Only ones with skills who can work.
