    This crap has to be part of Krasnov’s mission to weaken and dismantle the US.

    The entire developed world has fertility rates well below population maintenance levels. Countries are going to need to attract immigrants to keep their work forces and tax bases stable, never mind growing them.

    The USA is going to have problems attracting immigrants for decades if not generations, unless some crazy shit unexpectedly changes for the better with our government.

      People will still come to USA. Even if trump discontinues birth right citizenship people from third world countries will still want to come to USA whether illegally or legally. The thing is by denying citizenship to immigrants trump will be able to create an army of cheap labours and companies will pay him a lot more for those labourers. Because if you are illegal immigrant and want work to help your family at home you will be willing to do anything. That’s what trump and his friends want. They will hire cheap labour, pay very less, exploit excessively and then escape from the clutches of the law.

        I disagree. As it ramps up, it will become more and more risky and less and less people will want to emigrate especially as economic opportunities lie elsewhere.

          You are very wrong. Maybe you have never travelled to third world countries. There are no opportunities in third world countries. That’s why now they will become more aggressive. Illegal immigration may appear to reduce but it will be insignificant. Because in western there is demand for cheap labour. And the third world people are willing to work for less.
