I think about 3 billion people around the world live in poverty and most also live in places where they suffer from political and religious persecution. It is tough out there for citizens of the world. Especially in Southeast Asia, Latin America, and Africa.
Right now millions of people are doing everything they can to make it to our Southern Border. An ever-increasing number are coming from Africa and flying to countries in Latin America that don't require a Visa to visit. From there they are making their way slowly to our border, risking their lives. Countless people are coming from Central America and places like Haiti and Cuba.
I FEEL SORRY FOR ALL OF THEM. But should we only let in those people who can make it to our border? How about the billion-plus suffering people from Asia and Africa who can't come up with the money to make it to our Southern Border? Don't they deserve to come here too?
How many suffering world citizens should we let into America each year? How about 10 million, 20 million, 50 million? (But don't you know that would be a fraction of the total who would come here if they could?) How are we going to pay for the welfare and language programs that will be needed to get these fine migrants up to speed in America?
Again, this question is for Democrats who support the liberal candidates who want to eliminate our border patrol and be generous to the world's poor.

Do people know many are business owners who migrate from their country of birth; they've exhausted their resources?
"That a man ought not to be a slave; that he should not be confined against his will to a particular spot because he happened to draw his first breath upon it; that he should not be compelled to continue in a society to which he is accidentally attached, when he can better his situation elsewhere, much less when he must starve in one country, and may live comfortably in another, are positions which I hold as strongly as any man, and they are such as most nations in the world appear clearly to recognize."

More displaced people to come ...
Human migration sparked by wars, disasters, and now climate
"And at the end of the Vietnam War, over 125,000 people from Vietnam migrated to the United States in the face of a humanitarian crisis.
They weren’t the last: Migration continues in the 21st century, driven by famine, natural disasters, and human rights abuses. Beginning in 2013, migrants from North Africa and the Middle East began to move in increasingly larger numbers into Europe, seeking to escape poverty and political instability in their homelands. The migrant crisis stretched European resources thin, fueling xenophobia and frustration even in welcoming states. And hundreds of thousands of Rohingya people have been forced to migrate to Bangladesh from Myanmar despite centuries of history in their homeland.

They [migrants are people too] will work (become u.s. slaves like the rest of us) and they will pay their taxes, therefore they will be paying for the needed increase in programs that are already available in the u.s. that addresses this issue. Stop me if I'm wrong --- job creation? Oh wow, there's a

US population growth hits 80-year low, capping off a year of demographic stagnation
While you mule that ^ over, not a sinking ship. The only reason the u.s. is not experiencing an under population problem other countries are faced with is because of immigration. Without immigrants, due to low birth rates, the u.s. would not have the [slaves] tax payers that it has today.
United States Population 2019
United States Population in 2050
"The United States population is expected to rise to 438 million in 2050. This projection is based on the assumption that currently observed population trends will continue into the future.
82% of this population growth between 2005 and 2050 is predicted to be from immigrants and their descendants. This equals out to 67 million people added to the population from immigrants, 47 million people added from second generation immigrants, and 3 million added from third generation immigrants. In total, 19% of the country’s residents are expected to be foreign born." (my emphasis)
Quick, how to cut population growth 82% and thereby decreasing u.s. GDP so as to insure the u.s. becomes a failed nation in 2050?
Answer, stop the flow of immigrants into the u.s. (future -- history of an ancient u.s., possible publication in 2056, included in the rise and fall of ancient civilizations
)

The dems felt so bad about the man and his son who died trying to swim into America. I was sad too, but if we make it easy to sneak in billions will come and more will die.

Correction, we need more young immigrants allowed in so at to repopulate dying towns; which are presently waiting in dentition centers all across the u.s. to be released.
Interesting enough at the present low birth rates (2.5 global average per woman) are a global issue, not just a national issue and the young immigrants, they too are not having babies at re-population levels. (according to a pew report I read on millennial u.s. immigrants )

It is the end result of all migration even at legal points of entry now (present policy, not law, implemented) being deemed as illegal. That has created more desperation and people taking greater risks, rather than they wait in their home for (picking a name out of air)
Juan to show up and shoot 'em in the head for not paying the local extortion taxes from the near by gang and/or cartel and/or the civil war to reach their neighborhood ... etc. They take the risk. No risk, no reward ...
People are voting against their own self-interest in the u.s.; it's interesting to watch.
