I look forward in seeing you reap your consequences - When the economy collapses Posted: Dec 10th, 2024 - 7:49 am In Reply to: I'm not excited or looking forward to the consequences - of an economy collapse
Trump has already admitted that his tariffs will increase prices. Mass deportation will crush our economy, as employers rely on immigrant labor.
As per usual, your comment that illegal immigrants are a "net fiscal drain" is not borne out by data.
A 2017 report from the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine found immigration “has an overall positive impact on the long-run economic growth in the U.S.”
How that breaks down is important.
First-generation immigrants cost the government more than native-born Americans, according to the report — about $1,600 per person annually. But second generation immigrants are “among the strongest fiscal and economic contributors in the U.S.,” the report found. They contribute about $1,700 per person per year. All other native-born Americans, including third generation immigrants, contribute $1,300 per year on average.
